Today marks 17 years since I boarded a plane to Tel Aviv, one-way ticket in hand paid by the Israeli Absorption Ministry and 100 kg of my most precious belongings packed in cardboard boxes. I was 21 years of age, young, naïve and very much in love. To leave everything behind was a conscious decision, […]
Painting a Pretty Picture?
A few days ago, someone I know finished a 100 day Instagram challenge of #100happydays, where she for the duration of a 100 days posted a daily picture of something that made her happy. On the last day of the challenge she posted a collage of some of her favorite pictures while also adding that […]
Never doesn’t Necessarily have to Mean Never
Remember my no buying project? My project where I decided to stop buying clothes, shoes and accessories? If not, you can read more about it in this previous blog post. From April to late November I bought absolutely nothing and have since then only bought a t-shirt and just last week, a pair of […]
The Hardest Part
If you remember my post a few weeks back, one of my goals this year is to be more active physically and so I have been running three times a week for three weeks now. I am pleased, but must admit that it is quite a struggle; a struggle to get out of the house, […]
Why Shaving my Legs has something to do with Everything Else
As most other women, also I, shave my legs on a more or less regular basis . These days, it being winter and all, I have to admit that it is not really something that I put a lot of effort into. Apart from those living with me, nobody gets to see my legs anyways. […]
New Year, New Beginnings!?
For the last couple of years, Dear Husband and I have made it a habit to take some time out at the last day of the year to recap the one that passed and to talk about what we want for the one that is coming. We make a date out of it and make […]
What I Hopefully Learned from my 7 Months “No-Buy” Project
Back in September I decided that I needed a little break from the blog, some time to think about what I wanted to do here and where to go next. That it would be a two-and-a- half month break was not planned and it sure is nice to be back! So, I have decided to […]
The End is Near (or an Update from a Summer Holiday that is almost Over)
As I write this, there is less than 7 days till the kids go back to school and everything will again go back to normal…. At least until the next holiday. This holiday has been long a long one – almost 9 weeks of which we have had the kids home with us for the […]
The Change that Comes from Within
For as long as I can remember, I have had a struggle with my body image. From insecurities in my earlier years to dissatisfaction later on. I know now that there was no reason to have those thoughts then and will probably know in a few years that there is no reason to have them […]
Everyone has an Opinion!
When I first moved to Israel, I thought that people voicing their opinions to others was an Israeli thing and while I do still think that Israelis are more vocal than others, today I am of the opinion that the trend is quite global. I still remember walking down the street, with my first-born in […]
