Summer 2015: Scandinavia – Copenhägen, Denmark
After the couple of days of “work” in London, I flew off to Copenhägen, Denmark to meet my friend, J, for our Scandinavia adventure.

My Adoption Journey – 5D: Birth Family Update
So…is the suspense killing you???? 😛 The results at the beginning of June revealed that…HS is NOT my biological family!!! 😮 Yep…after all that assumption that if I were to search I would find them, it seems that I am actually even less able to find my biological parents than those who were given zero information.

Re – charge, juvenate, fresh, peat, new, vise!
I hadn’t realized it has been so long since I last posted. Guess I have been busy and taking some space to enjoy life whilst processing next steps. This space will, as I am constantly saying, become more active soon. My plan is to return to more regular scheduled programming upon my return to the…

Better Days
In every heart there is a dream In every eye there is a hope In every mind there is a way for it all to come true. In every child there is an innocence In every woman there is an intuition In every man there is an instinct for it all to come true We…

Breaking In the New Wheels
For a while now I have been considering getting a new car because my lovely Materia has spent the last six years getting bullied on the UAE roads. In general I have a thing against buying used cars in this country since people tend to abuse their cars and then lie about the usage. Also,…
