The other week I was scrolling through Instagram and came upon an interview between a french lady and Anna Barrow, a yoga teacher (amongst many other diverse roles) talking about Anna’s business. Anna is in the Purbeck Business and Community Group that I also joined last year. I paid interest as I come across so …

Today was about reaching out to different people on Instagram and LinkedIn and making more links with people involved in water sports organisations and companies. Later we went for our daily walk so more pictures of conditions. Apart from that, thoughts about work but no drawn art today.
