Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
The difference in my life between last weekend and this weekend is like night is to day. Last weekend I was surrounded by noisy, energetic, sticky small humans and this weekend I woke up with a Pomeranian on my head. Last Sunday I woke to the usual sounds of the kids shrieking with either laughter …
I've written often about how hard it is to make friends as an adult. I think if you are lucky enough to have 'lifetime' friends, there is nothing better. This is why it makes me so happy that both of my adult daughters are away for a weekend with girlfriends who have been in their …
