Festwich Day 2. Watching The Killerz' (with a z you see) rendition of Indie Rock n Roll. Not too bad actually. The lead singer has the theatrics of Brandon Flowers with a voice that would be at home in a David Bowie cover band. Also enjoying the usual festival experience of drinking not cheap red… Continue reading Silver linings
The Sun moved into Leo today. The sign of creative self-expression, of courage and of taking the centre stage. Seems fitting then that today I signed the lease on behalf of the newly incorporated Reason Season Lifetime Collective. Quite the astrological Go sign indeed. Also on the side of affirmations was following the Aquarian's recommendation… Continue reading Leaping into Leo
Another first today. Our Collective's first crystal buying trip. At the Gem and Rock show the Aquarian took me to for my birthday back in March the smiley Brazilian man showing the massive stunning pieces of Amethyst and Smokey recommended to me a supplier. Today I met them and immediately resonated with their energy. Honest… Continue reading Hidden Gem
Well our holiday is over and today has been non-stop. I am so grateful for one of my dear friends pointing out that during this flurry of activity it is important to remember self-care so after I post this I am going to spend a nice chunk of time meditating and connecting with those grounding… Continue reading Do what you love
We managed to sneak one last Hamburg experience before heading home today. Specifically a wander around the Schanze area. Part hipster cool, part Hamburg posh it's still a great area for exploring the various independent shops sometimes offering quite quirky wares (as well as the delightful surprise of Vegan currywurst). It was also a great… Continue reading Last minute inspiration
Our last lazy day in the House of Relaxation. Thoughts are starting to creep in though of all the things I need to do to get ready to open the shop on 31st July. Yes, 31st. Less than 2 weeks away. What to do. What to do. Sharing this with our friends we ended up… Continue reading Trust your Heart
We have moved today from one amazing city to another. My favourite city in fact. Hamburg. This city has everything. Great cafes and bars, a beautiful lake spotted with places to buy delicious German food and Alsterwasser (Hamburg's version of Shandy), striking docks and beach clubs. Yes beach clubs, with sand, and an incredibly chilled… Continue reading So close
Heads up on this post. I had a very strong reaction when viewing the remains of the Berlin Wall today. So much so that I felt a flood of energy come through. Messages, information which made no sense to my brain but was crystal clear to my intuition. Walking down the stunning example of Communist… Continue reading Messages from Berlin
Am sure to those of you following this story that taking time out just before starting a shop seems a bit odd but I am putting it down to the Universe's quirky sense of timing. Because I am in Berlin. A place I've wanted to visit for a very long time and after a number… Continue reading And relax
Today was decision time. Although you could already guess what the decision was going to be. No spoiler alert needed here. Yes, of course it was yes. Could it have ever been anything else? We still did our due diligence, working it out the best we could. Costs, income, decoration, projections, requirements, risks... Not entirely… Continue reading But of course
