IanEvening all! Firstly, Happy Lunar New Year! Well, as you can see, I am BACK! It’s been a bit of a roller coaster since I got back from Malta, but I’ll explain what happened and what’s next.
Last time I left you, it was at the end of our awesome Malta birthday holiday! I did say I’d do a travel home day blog, but it didn’t materialise! So I am sorry about that! By the time we got home (and it was an adventurous journey home to say the least…) I was exhausted, and I wanted to focus on unpacking and hit the sack. As with any end of the holiday, life just continued on without a blink of an eye!
As we all know, the middle of November through the middle of January is a very hectic, busy time, including Christmas and New Year. It goes so quickly, you miss it! I ended the year on a positive note, despite it being a rough year for me.
Now, let me explain where the website went! I have been looking to save some money on my monthly spend, so I opted to shut down my old VPS because I was paying a lot and not really seeing the value! However, I missed blogging to you guys, so I found a brand-new host! This new host is still on a VPS but is £10 cheaper and not tied to a year’s contract! So I will be resuming posts soon!
We are now 2 months into 2026, and some big changes are coming soon. Firstly, I will be going back to a full-time job soon (after being self-employed for the last 10 months), which will bring in more money and mean more travelling! Also, I will be relocating soon! I won’t go into details now, as things are still being finalised, but hopefully I’ll be able to share with you all soon!
Expect more blogs from me over the coming year, as I will have a better income flow and be able to travel more. Plans are underway for my 40th birthday: we will be going away with my friend again in November, and this time, all the family is invited! On top of that, we plan to take a few short breaks around Europe soon as we both settle into our new jobs. I will also be focusing on my fitness, as it’s about time I got myself sorted! I also want to resume local UK trips soon, as I missed doing those!
So for now, I’ll leave you with this – Happy Lunar New Year and here’s to the year of the horse and the year of getting my life back on track! Look forward to more blogs from me soon! I hope those who celebrate the Lunar New Year have a great time, and here’s to a prosperous new year!
