JANUARY

Home is warmth. It is waking up in the mornings to the sound of food being made downstairs and people rushing around getting ready for the day.  It is the difference between going to sleep at 4am after drinking too much or having lavender baths, in bed by 10pm after reading my book.

January has been a funny month-isn't it always? It was uni deadlines, work and getting back to some sort of routine. I feel like I spend my days waiting for summer. Me and the cold don't get along, but it's nearly the end of January. And not to wish this month away, I can't wait for what the next month will bring.

It's been a hot minute since I did a post like this so here goes.

-new hair pamper things, shorter and a little bit blonder (kinda)
