Gifts you can't go wrong with

It's December which means we have all started making plans for Christmas and shopping for gifts. Here, I am sharing some suggestions for gifts you can give to your loved ones if you are not sure what to get them or they haven't asked for anything,

Bath and beauty gift sets - You can get nice bath and beauty products such as hand towels, body washes, body butters and soap, make up brushes and cosmetics in gift sets from The Body Shop, Priceline and Kmart. They are useful things.

Candles - Everyone likes their homes to have beautiful scents in them, right? Candles are perfect for that and are sold in so many stores. Bath and Body Works has lovely scented candles and products and right now they have a mix and match deal where you save $20 when you spend $100 or save $10 hen you spend $50. Definitely check out their Christmas range!

Headphones: With most of us working from home, noise cancelling headphones are a useful tool to help block out background noise and distractions and we all love listening to music and podcasts anyway so get some headphones or earphones for someone.

Reusable Cups - Take your coffee, tea or other hot drink to go with resusable cups.

Shoes - We need to take care of our whole bodies, including our feet so t is very important to have comfortable shoes. If you see a family member walking around in old, worn out shoes, buy them a pair of great sneakers.

Bags - Handbags, backpacks, totes, purses... Any bag is useful and make great gifts.

Portable phone charger - At some point, we have all been out and about with a mobile phone which has lost charge. That can be troublesome so it's a good idea to get a portable charger. You can get them from stores like JB Hi-Fi,

Wall Art - Make someone's house our room look even better with some wall art. If you have gotten into art during Covid and done a painting, you could frame it and present that to a friend or family member.

Gift Cards - When you're not sure what to get someone for Christmas, give them a gift card to their favorite store or a Westfield one so they can buy themselves something they really like.

Food - Food is always good so you could make a loved one's favorite meal or dessert or give them a box of their favorite chocolates or lollies.

I hope this helps some people with their Christmas shopping!

Virtual Stop #1: Lymington - A Seaside Gem Discovered by Chance

Welcome to my virtual travel series, where I explore beautiful corners of the world without leaving my bed. Inspired by TikTok livestreamers and walking tour videos, these posts capture what I see, feel and learn as I journey through new places from afar. I wasn't planning to visit Lymington - not virtually, not in any way. I had never heard of it before watching my favorite singing buskers livestream from the quaint little town in the UK and now I'm captivated. The charm of Lymington unfolded before my eyes: Cobbled pathways, rows of boats bobbing gently at the marina and friendly locals to stop and enjoy the music. I experienced it from my bed. There is something so welcoming about the town, The people passing by weren't just polite - they were supportive. Some clapped, others left kind words or a few coins, and a few even stayed for songs. There are three ladies who go often to support the guys. They have all been following them on TikTok for a while and met each other...

The Prove It Game

The public opinions on Meghan Markle, or Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, are divided. Some love her and most seem to hate her. I admire her in some ways. I just watched an interview she did with podcast host Jamie Kern Lima and something she said resonated with me. Image from Jamie Kern Lima YouTube. Here it is: "We spend so much of our lives trying to prove something. You have to prove that you're enough, you have to prove that you're pretty enough, you have to prove that you're smart enough, you have to prove that you're a good wife or a good friend, and I am just so done with the prove it game. When you get to the place where you feel like I don't have to prove anything to you anymore. I don't have to prove that I'm a good person, I don't have to prove that I'm a good wife or mum or friend, I don't have to prove that I work hard. It can be really freeing when you stop playing the prove it game." - Meghan Markle. I completely agree with...

Social Media Ban

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has said that the Australian Government will enact laws to ban children under 16 years of age from social media and here I am sharing my thoughts on this. Image from The Chapel Hairdressers - Horsham Facebook page There are many benefits of social media. We can share photos and videos with our families and friends to keep them updated on our lives, instantly communicate with them, have a record of special memories, businesses can promote their products and services, connect with people professionally and do so much more. So many people are working on social media full time as influencers, working with brands and creating content online and some have even married people they met online. Social media can also be used as a weapon. Preteens and teenagers go through puberty, stress about getting good grades at school, do their best to live up to their parents expectations, have many things they are worried about and just wan...
