Remember the very first time you opened a pop-up book? There are times when memories of those books would come to mind and remind me how magical the experience was. It still is.

We find out later in life though, post terror Science teachers and all, that every moment you spent in all those Science classes did not need to be scary. No information could be too big nor too small for a curious learner. There’s...

The moment we get settled in to a new home, the first thing each of us does is to find a spot we strongly connect to. Mine would always be by a window, while my husband needs the most quiet corner because of his virtual meetings.

I had this mommy break in mind, and I am so glad that I just went ahead and took the plunge. The long walk from the lighthouse to the quiet and secluded beach was a great way to catch up with a friend who cleared her busy schedule (on a Wednesday!) to make sure I could tick Guisi off my 2016 bucket list....
