“Wherever you go becomes a part of you somehow.”
~ Anita Desai
So here I am in Thailand, after a wonderful flight, with many good movies and some delicious (really!) food. We got into our hotel at about 10.30pm local time, after midnight by my body clock, and Ben made the sensible choice and said that we actually needed to go to bed, although I was so excited that I wanted to do was race outside and DO EVERYTHING!!!
My plan this morning was to sleep in! To be on holidays! To do nothing!
And then of course, as I always do, I woke at 4am. So you know what happened next… I meditated, and sent you all some healing and love. Then yoga stretches, a long hot shower, and another lie down between clean hotel sheets before an early breakfast and some writing time.
There’s a fabulous massage place – Lavana Spa just up the road – so I’m going to toddle up there soon for some serious pampering, after which I’ll sleep (hopefully) and then hit the night markets tonight for some good Pad Thai.
Oh my goodness. Holidays. It’s only just starting to sink in, this whole concept of nothing to do except whatever Ben and I feel like doing.
I’ll keep popping in and posting while the internet is so good. (Free and 25 times faster than the internet at the farm – mind boggling!)
And I’m a happy dog mumma right now, after hearing that the lovely friend who is farm-sitting for us took Cafe Dog to Doma Cafe in Federal for Sunday breakfast, which immediately scored her a seat at the locals’ table after they all recognised Harry Dog!
Hugs and love to all of you.

You always relax more when you know those you left at home are well cared for. Cafe dog is still having his morning ritual as well. I think knowing that heals the heart a bit. Glad you are having a great and deeply relaxing time. Think I’m ready as well. Next week, I get a stay-cation. My son is going away for 3 days and I get my home all to myself. Woohoo.
Enjoy your stay-cation! I love a little time on my own at home too. Much love xx
You are having a well deserved break! The place looks gorgeous and I hope that you find some really good body workers and spa treatments! I am so happy and delighted for you! Lots of love!
Sounds absolutely luscious!! Enjoy Enjoy Enjoy!!! Pamper Pamper Pamper!!! Lol! Take care & have an Amazing Holiday! Soooooo happy for you! 🙃
This makes my heart happy.
