Hi friend 👋
As the holidays approach and the year draws to a close, I hope you are starting to shift into a slower pace and perhaps considering taking a well-deserved break. The holiday season is a perfect time for reflection when we can reassess our goals and recharge, both mentally and physically, for the upcoming challenges of the new year.
Personally, I’m gearing up for a vacation with my family in Australia, but before that we are celebrating Christmas here in Bali. Coming from Europe and being used to a winter Christmas, it will be interesting to experience a tropical Christmas this year.
As a special holiday edition, I’m sharing a few handpicked content pieces for you to get comfy with during your holiday downtime.
On that note, I wish you Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year!
See you in 2024 🎆
