right now. (January 2016)

We saw in the New Year on the Danish island of Bornholm where Rasmus grew up. I say “we”. I think I made it to 10pm before heading up to join Kaya in the land of sleep. Third trimester travel with a toddler was surprisingly much easier than I had expected and it was so…

right now. (December 2015)

Christmas marked three months since we moved into our rented house in SE London, and five months since we left Luxembourg. It already feels like an age, and yet I feel like a complete newbie here too. Christmas Day is also Kaya’s half birthday (we planned that well!) so I now have an 18 month…
