“Hello, my name is Yaya and I am an apps hoarder.” I have a habit of downloading apps on my phone with the hope of using them at some point and yet never opening them once or even acknowledgeing them until my phone start to run out of memory and I need to delete some. … Continue Reading

In a shocking revelation this week – I found video footage from our first trip to Amsterdam! Okay, “shocking” is an overly dramatic way to put it (the quality of the video clips, however – now that’s shocking!).

Just a few hours ago it was so unbelievably hot (albeit in a different location) so how did things get so cold so fast? Sh*tGotRealFast.
