I recently made a decision that I don’t really want to be working for my currently company for years and in fact I would quite like to leave as soon as I can. It’s not an industry I am passionate about and watching my husband, who is passionate and talented in the industry, inspires me [...]

Spent Thursday – Monday in Singapore last week, hanging out with my sister, shopping, wining and dining, watching dvds in hangover-recovery and generally having a relaxing time away from the office. Singapore is such a pleasurable place to visit for a short time – everything is clean and organised and the food is fantastic. I [...]
