Hello & welcome to my new little space on this massive thing we called the world wide web. Although this will serve mainly as a place for me to share my creative works, it will also most likely feature posts on other areas of interest and just life in general. Let me introduce myself!

WordPress’ Daily Prompt: “Tell us about your favourite pair of shoes, and where they’ve taken you.“
Back in 2016, I took part in a writing challenge on the app, Lettrs and one of the prompts was “Shoe Lover” so I wrote a silly little piece about the best pair of boots I have ever owned. The Faux Leather Moto Boots from Urban Planet.
The Boots 😍
Dear Boots,
I have never really been a part of the “shoe lover” club. I mean, shoes have just never been the thing I get all crazy about. I have never owned more than two or three pairs at a time. I have never been the type to go shoe shopping unless I truly needed to go shoe shopping. I have never passed by a window, stopped dead in my tracks and squealed in excitement “Oh my gosh! Look at those pumps. I must have them! They would look terrific with that dress I have been dying to wear” or “Those boots would go great with my Gucci bag!”. While I do give kudos to those who can recognize and appreciate a great, reliable shoe when they see one, I have never been one of those people. I have just never loved a pair of items that go on my feet so much that when I said “goodbye” to them, it was like I was saying “goodbye” to a part of me.

My first year participating in Bloganuary 2023 has ended. I didn’t post a response for every prompt but I knew that I probably wouldn’t from the beginning. Nevertheless, I did enjoy taking part in it and it helped me to make some progress on this new little blog of mine.
It was also really neat to see such a large community of writers coming together to share their stories, thoughts and views on different things. I didn’t get to spend a whole lot of time reading the responses of others but I know that they are still there and I do plan on going back to view more of them. I do hope that everyone who took part in Bloganuary 2023 enjoyed it and came out of it feeling inspired.

One thing I regret not doing early on in life is learning to speak another language fluently. I did take some French in school but after I graduated, I didn’t stick with it. In the past couple of years however, I have been interested in learning it again (and much more than I did in school) and I have been using Duolingo to do so.
I personally enjoy using the app and I find it makes learning a new language interesting and fun. It even offers the ability to learn Klingon for Star Trek fans. A few other languages I would possibly like to learn are Italian, Swedish and Japanese.

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.“
