Why Being Single at 40 Feels So Different
I’m not gonna lie, being single at 40 feels different. When I found myself single at 30, I started a new adventure and moved to London. Dating wasn’t difficult in the city. But when I became single again at the beginning of this year, after almost 5 years in a relationship, singledom felt different.
Friendship

Balancing Relaxation and Adventure in Portugal
In Portugal, I try to balance exploration and relaxation during my holiday. Recognising the need for self-care, I alternate days of adventure with rest. Enjoying hotel amenities, I incorporate gym sessions and spa treatments into my routine. I learn the importance of downtime, aiming to return home rejuvenated, not exhausted.

Change – Part 2
In Change (Part 1), I wrote about the importance of living life. How life was too precious and too short to plod along, and how sometimes it takes a life-changing event to give us the wake-up call we so badly need. In Change (Part 2), I want to share with you, my readers, how a…
