About Me

I’ve always had a longing to write, but it’s taken me years to get started. A chance move from the UK to Detroit in 2014 (and back again in 2020), coupled with a 6+ year attempt to conceive a child, has blown my life wide open in the best and worst ways, and has made that longing feel all the more important and necessary. In 2023, my husband, our two cats and I checked out of life in the South East in pursuit of a dream of starting a little farm and being more creative. This Substack page was born around the same time. We now live in West Wales, and are slowly growing to love making our home here in this wild and beautiful part of the world.

You can expect reflections on all sorts here: our life in Wales, nature, yoga, music, wisdom traditions like Ayurveda and Human Design, life transitions and grief, how to break away from one life and start another, how to feel more free, and what it means to be a human in the world. I’m also interested in what makes a home a home. After living in the US for 5 years, this became a preoccupation for me and something I love to explore.

Thank you for being here with me.

Two years ago, I packed in life in South East England and moved to West Wales in search of more creativity, time outside, connection, and peace. I'm writing about it all here.
