I have been spending the last two weeks travelling (errr… I mean ‘working’) in North America so I thought it’d be appropriate to do a little Thanksgiving post even though we don’t celebrate it in Australia.

If you’re anything like me, the mere thought of moving your bookshelves is enough to have you internally screaming “NOOOOO!” There was denial, hiding in bed so I didn’t have to […]
If we were stranded on a deserted island, which books would we each bring with us? We thought it’d be fun to share some of our favourite books that might be suitable for an extended trip away from civilisation!
