Life My week consisted of just work and the gym, but I had a wonderfully social weekend – my friend’s engagement party on a boat, brunch, and the V&A. Also managed to get in some Cate-time – gym, reading a novel, etc. Work Busy exhausting, but in a good way. I feel like my project…

Frankfurt, March 2014
[slickr-flickr search=”sets” set=”72157644472197926″ align=”center”] I went to Frankfurt for the Luminale, booked after I read about it on a design blog as I love light and electronics and digital art.

US October 2013 (MN and CA)
[slickr-flickr search=”sets” set=”72157640335879003″ align=”center”] Mostly a work trip, so little time to see anything.

I stayed at the Crowne Plaza (I like…

LIFE Quieter week this week, caught up with some uni friends but mostly hermitted after how hectic last week was! Was also still feeling sick and run down which left me exhausted and in something of an emotional funk. Trying to carve out more time for personal projects and rebalance a bit, taking 30 minutes…
