Hands pulled my legs down, feet kicked in front as I tried to push through the crowded waters. Each time I ducked my head in the water I felt the saltiness spill into my throat and lungs. For a moment I thought I would raise my hand and get someone to pull me out of… Read More
I’m 28 today! That sounds so old. I still feel like I’m about 21 and not a day older. Probably behave that way too. My 27th year was an interesting one to say the least. I changed many things, tried new ones and discovered the things that I’m really passionate about and want with my… Read More
*I’ve been swimming twice a week for the past three weeks (accept for this week –on Tuesday it was raining and much more enjoyable to spend time snuggling on the couch and watching Bond movies).

Usually, I end up eating more than my other half and that’s a lot. During the festive season my stomach feels like a bottomless pit while I’m at… Read More
Feeling the sand against my toes as I run towards an undecided destination, we weave through the people lying in the sun, playing beach cricket or volleyball, freshly built sandcastles and seashells that manage not to pierce my bare feet. Sometimes it’s on hard sand, at times it’s the soft sand that works my thighs,… Read More
Most sports leave a trace of battle on the body. Football may come to mind when boys tackle each other (though I sometimes wonder if they just want an innocent hug), or there’s chess – a two person game that appears harmless and injury free until you get a pawn thrown in your face. When… Read More
