Lifestyle

In this Lifestyle I’m writing about different topics like; Style, Beauty and Mind. As a single women in my early fifties, I experienced a lot of these topics. I need to say I’m not official an expert or doctor in any of these lifestyle areas, but I hope I can inspire you with my life experience. All topics are women related where I think many women can identify themselves with. I’m very open and will express myself in a vulnerable way. I hope you can relate to these topics I discuss here. Please let me know your feelings on my blogs and what your experience is so we can learn from eachother!
