I tend to elicit odd looks from strangers at this time of year. Mainly it’s because you can find me shouting “oh that’s so cwtchy!” or “yesss that’s just so hygge” at almost everything. If you yourself are furrowing your brow like “what is she saying?”, let me give you a brief run down. ‘Cwtchy … Continue reading My Love of Hygge; or, How to Find Joy in the Smallest of Things | Lifestyle

Why I Love Being an Introvert (and You Should Too!) | rosie abigail
Does anyone else feel like this is a bit of an extrovert’s world? No shade at those 50% of people who are extroverts. I mean, look at the phrase ‘living life to the full’. That makes me think of people who ignore regrets, make friends everywhere they go, always having their communication brain and raring … Continue reading Why I Love Being an Introvert (and You Should Too!) | rosie abigail

I’m not on about turning your life upside down, living in a vegan tree-house in the forest, and turning your toilet into a compost pile. I mean, smaller, more realistic … Continue reading Five Small But Sustainable Changes You Can Make | rosie abigail
Use Your Privilege.
I had scheduled a happy-go-lucky blog post today about small and sustainable changes I’d made in my life. But to post something so light and cheery seemed so disingenuous to me.
