I have recently embarked on a life changing journey, becoming a father for the first time. Initially excited when hearing the news but also slightly apprehensive for what was about to happen, I started to plan for my new adventure into the unknown.
As the months rapidly progressed and the due date crept ever closer, the reality that I would soon become a father started to kick in. I still felt relatively unprepared and pretty clueless about how to take care of a new human being and found myself wishing I had paid more attention to the support classes that I had involuntary attended a few weeks prior.

My life has certainly changed forever, and I feel extremely lucky to be greeted at the end of the working day with a cheeky smile from my happy baby girl. (If I am lucky!)

I recently attended the final match of Carlo Ancelotti and Luka Modrić at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium. An occasion that will remain etched in my memory.

A trip to the Algarve wouldn’t be complete without venturing out onto the water. One morning, we joined a boat tour that weaved through hidden sea caves and secluded beaches. […]
