Recent Things: DJ Vibing and The Walking Canoes

Hello there! We survived another week in the crazy world we're living in right now. So cheers to that! 

That's totally an achievement right now. 

I was at the supermarket on Wednesday and had this moment of "is this actually real life?!". Because right now, things feel so strange. Walking around the supermarket with no food on the shelves, people wearing masks everywhere - even people walking around the park who now don't even say good morning and pretty much leap to the other side of the road to get 4 metres away from you. 

It's weird and sad - so, be kind to yourself right now. The world isn't functioning as it normally is, society isn't functioning normally, things are stressful and different and it's okay to not feel okay about it. 

Sooo, let's make things a little lighter and let me catch you up on the week that was!

Here's what's been happening in our world this week! >>

But first you're going to need the recipe! >>

Right now is weird. With so many countries affected by the coronavirus and more and more people around the world finding themselves under self-isolation or living in an area in "shutdown", it can seem a little bit lonely and overwhelming - but it doesn't have to be. 

We live in a world full of technology - which gives us the opportunity to rethink social distancing. Whilst we should keep our physical distance, we can still connect with one another in other ways.

After being in a long distance relationship for over 5 years, Jesse and I like to think we're pretty good at connecting at a distance.

One of those ways we've already been connecting with friends and family around the world is through video calls/zoom calls - and so I thought I'd share 10 things you can do with friends or family members via videocall. 

So here are some things you can do to stay connected even when you're not together in person >>
