~ Don't Wait. The Time Will Never Be Just Right. ~
I have been stuck in a bit of a rut, lately. It probably has to do with moving cities and starting from scratch. I had gotten used to the sights and sounds of Harbin, the morning market grannies knew what I bought as they would call out “the foreigner is here”; I had become part […]

The first opportunity to get hiking outside the city was granted, I grabbed it with two hands! There was no way I could let that pass, no matter how exhausted I am. Since I have arrived in Harbin, I have made a deal with myself to travel as much as I can. Even if it […]

For once, I had an outfit co-ordinated (by myself, of course) with Purity Ring and Oscar & the Wolf as my background music. I arrived 9 minutes late. Fashionably so. My best friend […]
Read MoreWhat a beautiful weekend filled with laughter, dances, Thai spring rolls, sushi, family braai, a walk with monkeys and Hadeda Ibises and a relaxing Sunday. I started off the weekend with a catch up at the Musgrave Roof Top Night Market. I have moved away from just eating Falafels. I have discovered amazing Thai Spring […]
