living my best life, experiencing the best books
The world has different opinions on New Year's resolutions; either you are in the camp that make them every year and need to wait till January 1st in order to start anything, or you think they are stupid, either because you start something whenever you need to, or that you think resolutions are stupid in …
We are coming to the end of 2019, which is both the end of the year and the end of a decade. As I do every year I have been working on my photo book of the year (see more about this here) and that allows me to reflect on the year and all that …
