You Can CycleChic

It is now four months that I am cycling to anywhere I am bound to go to.

 Apart from the savings accrued from not owning a car, I also avoid the heartache of waiting for the bus. Finally, I have great pleasure in eating sweet pies and cakes knowing that they are the fuel powering the relationship between my legs and the sleek vehicle. 

 To get a bike, there are numerous schemes available (Wheel To Work). There are also bikes on offer on Gumtree, Freecycle and Freegle. Finally, there are most probably in your friends’, family’ and/or own’ shed, a bicycle awaiting to be used. I personally borrowed a bike from my local voluntary group, so it is worth asking around. If you are not confident in cycling on the road, all I can advise is to find out online if there are some free cycling trainings for adults in your area and learn more about all the gorgeous off-road cycle paths.

 Regarding style, ladies, on your gorgeous bike, you do not have to put some safety nets on your style just because you are riding, so check the following:

Are we good friend?

A friend came to visit. She brought flowers and a card. Inside the card, she wrote that I was an amazing friend. To her, at least. It is normal to question yourself on the quality of your friendship and whether or not  you are a good friend to other people, are you doing enough to engage, support, celebrate others when they go through major transition? How much more can you do while racing through life, its responsibilities and distractions? A good tool to use for reflection is the theory of attachment to understand yourself and how your type of attachement impact on the quality of relationships. Have a look and let me know what you think?

Blacklist

It may be time to create a blacklist of companies to avoid and definitely refuse to  work for: - Those which are more than 3 miles than my home - Those which does not allow me to work from home - Those which does not allow me to work fewer hours - Those which pollute with no sorry - Those with negative employee reviews - Those which do not design products that are repairable - Those which do not put the wellbeing of their staff first what else, add to the list

Missminimalist , Thank you

I was hooked to missminimalist blogs in the past four days, reading approximately 16 pages of individuals testimonies on how they started and enjoyed their minimalist journey. It opened my eyes on the endless minimalist lifestyles that any of us can implement. I admire the traveller, the spiritualist, the true materialist (as opposed to consumerist), the mindful, the artist, the mum, the dad, the designer who with intention choose to keep the things that add value to his/her life and get rid of the frivolous. Beyond just getting rid of things, there is not participating to our current wasteful society, it is recognising that we are all equal regardless of what we own and finally it is embracing freedom. It is why I love it. I encourage you to have a read/rid, I hope it will inspire you:  http://www.missminimalist.com/
