a new home...


I've been welcomed to a new humble abode, tucked neatly into a little mint green and navy blue box in the city of Newcastle. But the most notable of all is the enjoyment of being in a new environment and the excitement that comes with discovering it's quirks. 
• The ginger 'Do not feed' cat who wanders over the fence for daily trips. 
• An overwhelmingly large bushy tree by the balcony which filters the perfect amount of light for an 8am rise.
•  The crooning busker who seems to be fixed permanently to the corner of Hunter and Thorn St.
•  The ever mysterious 'Bear' who now appears via iTunes and his extensive collection of Andrew Denton interviews.
• Seventeen (rather steep) steps on the staircase between myself and the fridge.

 I like quirky Newcastle.

Here's to dainty dishes and balcony kisses.

  4. Hello there, thanks for stopping by my little blog the other day. You have a lovely little corner of the web here, and it's lovely to meet you. Newcastle is sweet... sounds as though you've nabbed yourself a quaint place in Cooks Hill region... I'm jealous. I'm from near there myself, and still harbour a soft spot for all the pretty terrace houses.
