Tis a grey, gloomy + dismal Friday in Sydney, so I Tis a grey, gloomy + dismal Friday in Sydney, so I’m throwing it back to a year ago today when I was reunited with this babe in Ibiza in our very own library suite at one of the most beautiful hotels in the world, @casgasi. Boy do I miss travel, normal life, and the ease with which we used to be able to jump on a plane to see loved ones ✈️
Starting a brand new week with a beautiful new boo Starting a brand new week with a beautiful new book; today’s choice is The Enchanted April by Elizabeth Von Arnim, which I bought from the brilliantly bookish @thebookroomcollective while I was in Byron for a long weekend at the end of July.⠀ ⠀ What are you reading this week?
Fresh sheets, a new scented candle and a morning s Fresh sheets, a new scented candle and a morning spent curled up in bed with a book while the rain patters against the window pane is my idea of heaven 💞⠀ ⠀ What are you reading today? I finished The Vanishing Half by @britrbennett late last night so this morning I’ve been reading Own the Day by @aubreymarcus 💫
Byron, you were beautiful as always. Until next ti Byron, you were beautiful as always. Until next time 💫
Sunrise coastal walk + iced coffee + yoga + peanut Sunrise coastal walk + iced coffee + yoga + peanut butter porridge + The Year of Yes + an afternoon ocean swim with @clairehewitt makes for the perfect Thursday ☀️ 💫⠀ ⠀ What are you reading this week?
D’you have a favourite book you’ve read during D’you have a favourite book you’ve read during lock down? I first read White Oleander when I was living in LA three years ago, after buying a second hand copy at a bookshop on Venice Beach. I’m not a big re-reader of books (due, in part, to an ever-growing TBR pile) but I picked it up one dismal weekend in Sydney a few weeks ago and it was the perfect slice of much-needed escapism!⠀ ⠀ Hit me up with any reading recommendations below - I’m after some unputdownable books to see me through winter in Sydney 💫
“Keep reading; it’s one of the most marvellous “Keep reading; it’s one of the most marvellous adventures anyone can have.” - Lloyd Alexander 💫
