We took a #walk in the park today. Finally feels like #springishere, so happy belated #springequinox to all!
Feeling like I'm #drifting a bit, but I'm still here.
When you're feeling down, just go for a (short) walk. Shot of the uni #clocktower from our #morningwalk.
I've got a new #shortstory out through #emberjournal. I'm so excited to finally be sharing #likeclockwork with the world. So if you want to know more about where the story came from, check out my #linkinbio or go straight to the story at read.emberjournal.org
#merrychristmas to everyone today. Thinking today of all the friends and family in far flung places, and wishing most of all for the day when we can see each other again.
A day or two late, but #happysolstice, and here's to the #rebirth and return of the #sun.
#morningwalk with @revolutionandbeer around our new neighborhood. Things are sunny, but there's definitely a bite of winter in the air.
Well, that's officially #christmas prep started. @revolutionandbeer and I are all moved in to the new place in Nottingham, and today we got our #christmastree.
Back in 2016, I participated in the Stejjer Imfewha project, a collaboration between @foe_malta and @integra_foundation exploring the connection between #flowers, #herbsandspices and #memory for locals and migrants. You can check out part of that #exhibition, an installation of #storytelling titled #herbarium on my latest #blogpost. #linkinbio
