People Watching at Fitzroy Pools

Summer is in full swing here in Melbourne, and boy is it hot! Friends and I decided to hang out at the Fitzroy Pools to cool off over the weekend. It’s an outdoor pool, and they had a DJ playing some sweet tunes which made the whole place a giant pool party. Fitzroy Pools is…

Now I have a great desk space co-sharing an office inside the Nicholas Building in the city. The Nicholas Building is a grand Chicago-style building that…

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all my lovely readers! I’ve been missing for some time now but I’m back again after a refreshing break doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! It was so nice to just have nothing on the agenda for the Christmas and New Year break and wake up each morning not caring what day of the…
