Helping people to focus on the positive in their lives and move forward
If you’re setting up your own business, working for somebody else, writing a book, creating your own art or whatever it may be, what do you want to say that makes you different to everybody else?

I’m a big fan of using to-do lists to help me get things done and may even be a little dependent on them.

My favourite coffee in Spain is a cortado, which is kind of like an espresso with a dash of milk. I’ve been living here for 5 years now and I’ve probably had at least two cortados every day since then, so I’ve had more than three thousand of them in that time, which also means... Continue Reading →

I’ve just managed to get a Spanish driving licence for a friend. It's been a process which started... Continue Reading →
