The last few days after finally getting out of quarantine. I’ve had so much fun exploring Dunfermline and Culross! Here are a few clips I took in between.

Save this post for later! The pesto babka I baked yesterday was amazing!!! I would highly recommend you try this! ✨Swipe to the end for the recipe! ✨

The dog definitely tried to tackle my birthday cake from me, but luckily the cake survived! 😂✨ I am so happy that I could spend my week celebrating with all my nearest and dearest. Thanks to everyone who was a part of it xx What a good week!! How was yours? 🌞

Had some time yesterday to get creative and I am so happy I did!!💃🏻Even though this collage was very simple and quick It was so fun and definitely something I’ll try and do more often. For me personally being creative in some way really energizes me! Last year I made so many excuses not to get creative, but this year I WILL make time. This collage was inspired by @eastofhoney ‘s stunning work!

My soul leaving my body when having iced coffee! 😂 My to-do list for today: ⚪️Make bed 🔘Slowtown with Lara 🔘Make spaghetti squash for lunch 🔘Get some work done (not as much as I wanted) 🔘Work meeting ⚪️Watch Shetland with mum Note-to-self*: to-do lists never include “worry about stuff”!

Simply let things arise and unfold naturally instead of formulating expectations and worrying. Things usually turn out just perfectly! • Last year thinking about my 21st I had visions of traveling and having my parents visit me in Edinburgh. This year the reality is much different! I find myself almost celebrating a year anniversary of being stuck in my hometown due to a pandemic. Luckily I can say that at least I am happy, healthy and able to spend time with the people I love! Things are different, but despite the world imploding things did turn out just perfect!

Iced coffee is better than warm coffee! It’s been especially great these past few days because of Swakopmund’s weird heat (very humid without much sun and then suddenly too much sun 🌞😂) I had a quick study session at @slowtowncoffeeroasters with @lara_laar and it was just what I needed 😄

When this week gets a bit much, or you feel overwhelmed, breath! The sea is just one of those things that help me focus on relaxing and grounding myself. • Do you have a happy place, or certain sounds that just help you calm down? • • • #oceanview #views #calm #breath #anxietyrelief #practicebreathing #mindfulness #mindset #headspace #smallblogger #dollareighty #livethelittlethings #alifeconscious #thatsdarling #documentyourdays #liveauthentic #lifestyleblogger #instablog #darlingmovement #collectivelycreative #flashofdelight #seekthesimplicity #finditliveit #thehappynow #persuepretty #glitterguide #petitejoys #calledtobecreative #theblogissue #nothingisordinary

||studying philosophy: a series •almost falling over my dog trying to take a photo of my wine •an attempt at note taking •being fixated on the pretty cork •taking a picture of all the “dogs” in the garden.

Listening to lectures at x1.5 (sometimes x2) speed is my new super power! Motivation today has been low. Effects coding and the Anova has gone in the one ear and at least half of the info out the other. But I’m trying to be a more glass-half-full type of person this year so I’ll count it as a win! 💻hope your day has been more productive than mine x

What my laptop sees while I watch lectures 😑. Today I spent most of my day doing uni work. Because of yesterday’s excitement I had to double down and do some serious work 😂. • Highlight of my day: going out for lunch with my dad and having sushi (my absolute favorite)!
