UPDATE: Wendy and I returned to Thailand for the 1st time since receiving our long-term visas.
Thanks to Amanda & the @SettleinAbroad team for getting us all the way right! Printing the hard copy to present was great advice and we floated 😉 right through immigration with ease.

Honestly, this is the kinda sit I’d use to finish a creative project or just WHOOSAH after finishing one. Cat sits provide maximum flexibility!

I ADMIT IT!!!
I’m a MINIMALIST!
That was liberating. I used to be the queen of all the things. Tons of sleepwear, everyday to sexy but now…
If I do wear something to bed I find myself reaching for one of my 2 bedtime fits. In the morning, we both take a shower so it’s ready again when I am.
Now….Take a moment and reflect on what’s in THAT drawer; just that one.
I bet you reach for a favorite time and again. Breathe deeply, place that piece to the side and grab the next fav. That’s it! Everything else is expendable💯
Kudo for taking a true step towards minimizing for your next journey🫶🏽
