Welcome to my blog

I went on an educational cruise this week and because the cruise was made up of predominantly older people, I had the opportunity to converse in some very interesting conversations that I might never have had.

An older gentleman of about 65 started chatting to me and the conversion went on to how youngsters communicate these days; he told me about how he used to enjoy writing letters to his friends and that you actually had to sit down, clear your head and write from the heart. I couldn't remember when last i did that. My communication consists of bullet point emails and short code smses and whats apps. I couldn't remember the last time i actually sat down and wrote something... how scary. Could  I even string a paragraph together anymore? So I decided that the best way to get back into it would be to create a blog.

What would i write about? Well I'm a young newlywed, Ive just bought a house, I travel quite a bit, I live in the design capital of the world, we try a new restaurant every week, we go away on the weekends... in actual fact I have quite a bit to write about... and so it begins.
