Tuesday Inspiration

Why Tuesday? The way I figure it, Tuesday is the day when we’re no longer bathing in the afterglow of last weekend but next weekend still feels too far away! “Tuesday Inspiration” is anything that helps to chase away the midweek blues...   

When I left for my long-awaited gap year in France at the tender age of 20, one of my very best and most precious friends gave me a card with this quote written on the front. I memorised this quote and have carried it with me ever since. Whenever I feel lost or uncertain it is this simple little semtiment that inspires me to carry on!

No Man's Woman

Good morning! If I'm ever feeling a little flat (especially on a Monday morning) I just pop my headphones in and drift away to another place - preferably somewhere warm and exotic! This mornings soundtrack included Dan Kelly's cover of "Nothing Compares 2 U" from the compilation album No Man's Woman. I love the name of the album, it reminds me of meeee!(I've been called a committment-phobe more than once).

See below for a sample of Mr Kelly's sweet, heartbreaking, Hawaiian magic:

Have a happy Monday,

South Coast Dreaming

It's not always possible to jet off on a month long vacation, but sometimes even a little break can help you to recharge and relax. I decided to make the best of the Australia Day public holiday by skipping out of Sydney for a few days of South Coast sunshine, long walks, gentle yoga and a few sneaky treats here and there (yup, even yogis have their weaknesses!).

Early Mornings

These photos were taken one morning during my beautiful Sunrise class at Bondi Beach.

For me, early morning is the best time of day. Starting the morning with a lovely chai, healthy breakfast and some light exercise in the fresh air is a guaranteed recipe for a successful and productive day!
