Hello blog,
It’s still winter. Last year I very confidently declared that I preferred winter over summer. This year I’m not so sure. A part of me can’t wait for winter to be over already. Bring on summer!!!
I have recently decided to start buying physical books again, instead of using my Kindle. There are a few reasons to this. Firstly, I still feel that e-books are somewhat cold. Convenient, yes, but cold and not as personal as I’d like it to be.
A few weeks ago, my elder sis and her family came over to Melbourne for a visit! The ten days that they were here were definitely not long enough, but it was wonderful time spent together. Besides playing tourist with them in the city, we also took a weekend off to Phillip Island (which, as it happens, was the first getaway for us since we came here too!).
Sometimes she seems so little. Sometimes she seems so big. How can it be that my dear girl is now four years old??
If you’ve been reading my blog long enough, you’d know that I love New York. I’ve been there twice, and once I even thought of moving there. So when Sofitel Melbourne On Collins invited me to their ‘Modern New Yorker Lunch’, I was like, yesssss I’ll be thereeeeee.
Reading is such an important part of life, no matter your age, but even more so for young children. I like how J.K. Rowling put it: “I do believe that something very magical can happen when you read a good book.”
