{turned 40 over the weekend}

And truthfully, still processing it. 😆

Ever the reflective person that I am, i may need a few more days to make sense of it and embrace it. 😂 But I’m grateful for what I have, and more so, for what I don’t because it grounds me and softens my heart and creates a gentle spirit within me.

A very dear friend from miles away stood in front of a church with the huge “We can’t, God can” banner to record a video greeting for me. I think that pretty much sums up my life thus far—-full of “God can, I can’t” moments. ☺️

Sharing some lessons I’ve learned building my “basics” for my minimalist wardrobe these past few years:

* quality over quantity
* opt for timeless pieces in color, shape and form that you can mix and match
* no, it doesn’t have to be just black and white or neutral
* you can throw in some pinks or any color that can blend well with your other basics
* you define your own “basics” depending on your lifestyle and current season in life. For me, that is largely a pair of jeans or good leggings (let’s be honest! 😆) + button down shirts or cardigans.

Here’s to wishing you a more “put together” look and less decision fatigue with what you wear this 2022. ✨

2022 🎉✨🥂

May we be more forgiving and more loving and more patient and kind to ourselves, to one another, and to this world we live in.

“How well did we love others?” is a question we should be really answering when another 365 days pass by, shouldn’t it? At least for me, this is what truly matters. ❤️

And this is what I wish for you, too. Happy New Year! ☺️

✨🎄Christmas 2021 🎄✨

Togetherness has been quite tricky for the past two Christmases. Wishing you are celebrating the birth of Jesus and His gift of love for us somehow with family and friends, near or far, together or apart.

A very merry Christmas. ❤️

Simple does it.
A long branch. Old ornaments.
A few pine tree leaves.
A poinsettia on the side.
A few candles. Light for sparkles.

Merry Christmas soon IG friends.

So many things to be grateful for this year even if we are still in pandemic. I am most grateful for the life of R and for his 40th year, the reason we took a risk and traveled to celebrate and mark this milestone.

I thank God for you R—-my better half, the one who models love and grace and forgiveness to me and Z on a daily, and one who takes up his space quietly, humbly and ever-so kindly in this world. 😘

Happy Thanksgiving! What is the one thing you are most grateful for this year? 😉

Santorini in November 💙🇬🇷 There are many

Santorini in November 💙🇬🇷

There are many villages in Santorini but I would agree with those who have gone ahead of us that Oia is indeed the most charming and picturesque. If you saw a photo of Santorini, it’s most likely taken in Oia.

One can’t help but smile at the first sight of it, followed by an exclamation of appreciation and admiration. ☺️

If you have any questions about traveling to Greece in November or traveling with a child during the pandemic times, please ask away. ☺️

Is Santorini worth visiting during off-season? Absolutely! Sharing these insights to you and hope it’s helpful if you’re considering traveling to Santorini in November, an off-season:

Upside:
+ Very few tourists (you can take your time in all the photo spots without a long queue!)
+ Accommodation rates can be lower than summer rates)
+ Mild weather (between 14 to 18 deg)

Downside:
+ Chances of cloudy days and rain (haven’t rained yet for us)
+ Most restaurants are closed
+ Sunsets may not be as fiery and vibrant at summertime, (didn’t show up for us yesterday)
