    With inflation reaching all time highs not seen for decades, it is now more important than ever to plan out your finances. As a result I have put together this to help those that are struggling to get visibility on their income and outgoings by sharing how I manage my own. I know for many […]

    Gambling in the UK

    With the country in a lockdown people have been spending far more time at home than ever before. After seeing a lot of new stories about how prevalent gambling in the UK has become I thought it about time to ask if it was a problem or not. However, when you dig deeper, there is […]

    That Little World with my Sisters

    Being the first born in an Asian family means a lot of responsibilities. I am the eldest and I have two sisters. We were all born two years apart from each other. I remember, when we were kids, one of my main responsibilities is to teach my sisters. My mom expects that I will help […]

    The Real Estate Issue – A Profit or a Home?

    I would firstly like to mention how housing has become more about making money than about being a home. Although I believe the term housing needs some differentiation between the house and the land it is built on.

    The Cost of Panic Buying

    In light of recent events, I’ve been thinking a lot more about the effects of media on the public and how misinformation or control of information can lead to disastrous consequences. I don’t believe anyone truly has the answers yet so here are a few questions to ask instead. There will be a few posts […]

    Five differences being a nurse in the UK from the Philippines

    I worked as a nurse in the Philippines for more than 2 years specifically in medical wards and Emergency Department. In 2016, I moved to the UK where I also initially worked in wards before moving to ICU. I would say there are few differences in working as a nurse in both countries aside from […]

    To my ‘the One’

    Thank you for coming into my life. Thank you for not stopping on asking me out when we first met. Thank you for asking me to be your partner in all the dance classes and cooking classes you want to go to. Thank you for still sticking by with me even I refused to hold […]

    Being away from home: How to deal with Homesickness

    It has been almost three years since I moved to the UK to work and live and I could say that this is the most life changing decision I’ve ever done. Those three years were not as easy as I thought it would be to start living independently and pay for my own bills. But […]
