well it needs to start somewhere. Although I fear being over exposed writing on my blog, I'll be damned to give it up after nearly 10 years of writing.
Things are winding up for wee me, Lilli Martini and I here in Barcelona. There are many a sad tale to tell about how and why and such but it makes no sense to dwell on past events. We wish certain individuals in our recent past a good riddance and while feeling sad for them have accepted to move on and avoid any further bad things.
The move is a tough one as it's always hard to leave somewhere that you are not ready to leave. But in this situation time is of the essence and the faster we're in a positive, less-stressful environment the better. Doing so however is no small task. I used to be the queen of picking up my life in an instant and flitting on to something different. However in the last 10 years my life has changed quite a lot and it's no longer just me that I have to account for. The winds are blowing in a northerly direction. But nothing is certain yet and with the way things have been going lately the final port may just be somewhere entirely different. We're trying to keep things in stride and keep the options open.
I'm blessed that my mum has been here with us for the past month and she's been a rock for me.
However we're embracing the 'living in the now' mantra and enjoy this sunny merce fesitval weekend. The last bit of Spanish culture before we depart. Wish us luck!

“Never forget that life can only be nobly inspired and rightly lived if you take it bravely and gallantly, as a splendid adventure in which you are setting out into an unknown country, to meet many a joy, to find many a comrade, to win and lose many a battle.”
~Annie Basant
Sad to hear that Sarah. :(
I started occasionally reading you when I first moved to London and was looking for what other ex-pats thought. And then you moved off to Spain and were living a most fascinating life, so I just had to follow along.
Best wishes for whatever the future holds!
I'm so sorry, Sarah.
When one chapter ends, another begins. No telling where your adventures will take you next. Just know the story isn't over yet. :)
