Hi and happy Friday from Provence! I arrived yesterday and am just delighted to be back in France. I’ll be working some while here (the reality of being self employed!) but truly cannot wait to keep exploring, eating loads of great food and soaking up some sun. I’ll be on an abbreviated blog post schedule while overseas (I have 3 posts planned for next week still though!) and in the meantime, I hope you’ll follow along with my trip over on Instagram.
Have a wonderful weekend!
WHAT I DID THIS WEEK:
- Finished a great book. It had major Gatsby vibes and such a good ending. An easy, lovely read.
- Did a 2 day reset diet at the recommendation of my acupuncturist. It was torture! I have to do it for 5 days when I’m back from my trip so that I can get back to better eating habits because 2019 has had me eating like every day is my birthday – not ok! I experienced a horrific rebound headache after removing caffeine and sweets and man, two days felt like eternity. I’m looking forward to feeling better though after doing it for the proper amount of days later this month.
- Arrived to Provence for the next few days!
- Made some new additions to my Amazon shop.
