“You think winter will never end, and then, when you don’t expect it, when you have almost forgotten it, warmth comes and a different light.” Wendell Berry

The last day of winter was marked with a celebratory swim with swim buddies. Great time to pause and reflect the season that have just gone by.

Celebration of the season for me included:
❄️Having a dedicated rest practice each day.
❄️Getting enough morning sun
❄️Swimming in the bay in my bathers for most of winter
❄️spotting my seahorse friend a couple of times.
❄️swimming the winter rip ( of course)
❄️receiving ACC accreditation

Thanks winter!

Camaraderie

The word “camaraderie” comes to mind this International Women’s Day- IWD. This day can hold different meanings for different people. Personally, I see it as a time to reflect on the support I have received from the female-identifying and trans individuals in my life. Their support, care and love has made the impossible possible for me. The support and influence of others have opened up countless opportunities for me. That I am grateful for and celebrate.

While progress towards true equality can sometimes seem slow, seeing younger women confidently speak their minds gives me hope. Whether or not you celebrate International Women’s Day, let us remember that progress requires us to work together.

The photo perfectly captures the feeling of camaraderie that I experienced during the preparation for a team swim. It was taken on February 10th after completing the Rip swim. Although not as famous as the English Channel, the Rip has a reputation of being a challenging and unpredictable body of water. The team swim was not a relay. We needed to swim together and swim together we did.

Our individual progress toward this feat was made so much more possible and memorable because of the support of other incredible women. Together, we aimed for the impossible and made it possible for us all.

I wonder what has been made possible for you by others?

TRAVELLING LIGHT
I set myself a challenge to go away for 2plus weeks with less luggage and if possible just carry on. I wanted to get better at packing only what is necessary. Most of the time, I find I tend to only use 1/3 of what I pack.
I got there with the carry on luggage size but not weight and feel it will be possible :
🏊🏻‍♀️ if I did not need to take along the swimming gears to keep up with my swim training for and
🏊🏻‍♀️better gifts ideas for relatives and friends that is not bulky
🏊🏻‍♀️not buying 150ml hand cream duty free at the start that now means I can’t even do cabin luggage in my return league!

I guess the question is why did I even try. Travelling light does have a sense of ease and it feels good to get by minimally. Sounds familiar doesn’t it? If we let go of what is not necessary or serving us, life gets a tad more easeful.

How else would I get better at travelling lightly? And you.
