Here’s a look back at the last month with photos, blog posts, plans & goals progress and more.
What I’ve been up to
August has been a bit more fun with a week Up North, the annual flower and vegetable show and a bit of bike riding. I’ve also been a bit more inspired creatively so look out for a post next week. Not enough happened during my little holiday for a blog post but you can see my photos on Flickr.

Plans & Goals Progress
- Books, Comics & Zines I Read in 2025 – 4 read
- I’m still riding my bike and learning Dutch (though Duolingo really doesn’t want me to).
I’m also very much looking for freelance and temp work so please think of me if you or someone you know needs a new Shopify store, an overhaul of your current shop, blog or website, some minor fixes or a nice hardworking creative person to do some design or admin. Have a look at my portfolio to see how I can help.
