I don’t know about you, but I feel like social media has become a bit of an echo chamber / doomzone recently (ooooo. I WONDER WHY).
So I wanted to try something new this week, and send out an email which is all about YOU. Think of it like a town hall or a community cafe!
Come join me in the comments of this post (click the ‘leave a comment’ button to get there!) or, if you’re old school, hit reply and send me an email of your own.

What drink are you ordering at the imaginary cafe counter today? ☕
What’s been going on in your neighbourhood this week? 🦆
What’s been making you happy recently? Or what’s something that you’re really looking forward to? 💖
Here are my answers:
☕ I’m ordering a single-shot flat white with dairy milk, thank you!
🦆 My side of London is quite crisp and cool at the moment, the other day we had a Remembrance Day march down the high street and I have to say… the glockenspiels and cornets were NOT in tune with each other. The ducks in the local park where I live have a ~guest duck~ who is a very beautiful duck. Like, when you Google ‘beautiful duck’ this type of duck is the first thing to come up.
💖 Happy things recently include a trip to the zoo where two birds had an argument on my arm and I got to see GUINEA PIG VILLAGE which looked like an actual village, getting to see the dress rehearsal of A Christmas Carol at The Old Vic (go see it! go see it!), and alsoooooo it’s my ✨ birthday today ✨and I have been so lucky to have been blessed with a LOT of various cakes.
Last week’s post:
My Big Sister, The Internet
As a teenager, I didn’t hit the typical milestones as quickly as my other friends. No first kiss until I was 16. Never had a boyfriend or even had one ask me to dance until I was 15 (thank you Quinton, I will never forget you).

I woul order a Chai Latte in my favourit Cafe here in my hometown. They have three versions; one sweeter one, the normal version (I don't know, how these two are called, because...) I order the TIGER chai! It is spicey and I love it. (I'm a tiger in chinese horoscope). Next weekend I will meet my former collegues from school, we celebrate 30 years Abitur (similar to IB-Diploma says google). I have mixed feelings. ALot of mixed feelings. But we will have a nice time in the end. (or I will just run away) What's making me happy? Drawing, making collages and making a blue face every day (kind of my follow up to the morning pages) I have searched for a artsy, daily routine and I think I have found one in painting a blue face every day. I am adorning them with goldfoil, wich gives them a glow. I love it. I am looking forward to visit my family soon. :)
Hello! Please may I have a coconut matcha latte and I think I'll be sticking around for a bit so can I also have a hot chocolate in a bit please, thank you so much. I'm loving the sunshine, London is crispy and cold and on the weekend I walked around St James's Park and picked up pretty leaves and then watched a squirrel burying a nut. I'm looking forward to another week and leaning into Autumn more, watching the seasons change is something I'm experiencing in a new and lovely way this year.
