New Year Wishes & 2016 Favourite Blog Posts

At the end of each year, I take a moment to reflect on the closing year and think about what’s ahead for the New Year.

Overall, 2016 was good to me, but, for the coming New Year, I am longing to experience many “firsts”. I want to achieve a few things that are so dear to me in order to make this year special. Let’s hope that the angels in the sky hear my prayers, otherwise I will have to shout them louder!

As for this blog - well, I never have a set progamme. What I share here are fragments of my simple life and I like to keep it as it comes.

Finally, I wish each one of you a peaceful and happy 2017. May your days be filled with love and bliss.

Lots of Love

  1. All the best to you in 2017! May it bring everything you wish for and more.

    Thanks for the highlights you have pictured above. I was sorely tempted by the snow, but I think my preference goes to Tormenta Negra which has become the cocktail of choice this year
