Newsletter 6 May 2022

Where did this year go? I had a minor meltdown on TikTok about taking on a degree via Unisa – and just not having the time or the will after their many system breakdowns.

In this newsletter I share some travel news, including our stay at the Castle in Clarens, where to find those yellow frames – and of course the latest Barbie mermaid and skincare products.

Newsletter: Stay safe this silly season

49 days to Christmas! I don’t know about you, but this year with all its upsidedowness has just flown by. It feels like just yesterday it was March.

In this newsletter I have 2 pieces that you have to take note of…

I also have a new article about where you can find free online courses. Don’t forget about supporting local this year when you shop either – please? If you want to give me a Christmas prezzie, follow me on Instagram or Facebook, it will mean the world to me!
