What is it like to travel with a baby that used to be breastfed and cosleeping? Last year, we spent 3 months abroad with our co-sleeping, breastfed little baba. Admittedly, I found it pretty hard.

Taking care of yourself I was somewhere between a nappy change and a feed, lusting for a... View Article

I was standing in the middle of a shoe shop with a snapped flip flop in my hand. “Oh, so where are you guys from?” If only I had a penny. I looked at the sales assistant and tried to get a clue as to what answer to give her. The answer always depended on who I spoke to. Actually, I have... View Article

I have always had a dream of becoming a writer. I love stories. I can listen to them for hours. Diving into fantastic worlds of fictional or non fictional characters and let them come alive in front of my eyes. I also love sharing stories, the best stories I know are the ones that happen to you and me day... View Article
