Reflections 2021

December 31, 2021July 10, 2022 ~ Michelle Hanton OAM ~ Leave a comment

It's been a bumpy ride! Much of this year has passed in a blur with many ups and downs. And yet the year ends on a high note of borders being open and family from interstate once again being able to join us here on Bribie Island for Christmas. A highlight, and a labour of … Continue reading Reflections 2021

Volunteering Makes Me Happy

May 12, 2016 ~ Michelle Hanton OAM ~ 1 Comment

It’s National Volunteer Week and this year is the first time in over 18 years that I have not been involved with volunteering or organising something for volunteers. Last year doesn’t count because I was in Spain. You know me, I can't just sit on my hands, so when I saw the appeal go out … Continue reading Volunteering Makes Me Happy

There’s always a silver lining :)

February 7, 2016February 7, 2016 ~ Michelle Hanton OAM ~ Leave a comment

This time last Sunday I was in Ecija, having breakfast with Anne and Miguel plus the gorgeous Hugo who is growing up so fast! My quick trip to Spain last week came out of the blue. Although it was a very short trip, there is always an upside to everything. For me, these were the … Continue reading There’s always a silver lining 🙂

Christmas – a global marketing feast!

December 11, 2015December 11, 2015 ~ Michelle Hanton OAM ~ 2 Comments

If there is one holiday in the world that has a sweeping impact on everybody, it has to be Christmas. What unifying theme inherent to Christmas makes it one of, if not THE most awaited time of the year? This seems to be true regardless of race, social background, creed, or religion. Is it the … Continue reading Christmas – a global marketing feast!

Belgium – A Delightful Little Country

September 17, 2015 ~ Michelle Hanton OAM ~ 2 Comments

I started this post a year ago today, and I've just notice I missed actually publishing it...so here we go! The train from Paris to Brussels is smooth and fast. I was met at the station by Helene, who I'd met when she and Pierre were in Australia and staying at my place. We took … Continue reading Belgium – A Delightful Little Country

A Little Me Time – The Camino

August 25, 2015August 25, 2015 ~ Michelle Hanton OAM ~ Leave a comment

I've always espoused the value of Me Time and today I had a lovely midday break  in amongst my busy schedule. I took time out to head to the cinema, unfortunately I couldn't stretch to enough time for lunch too. I went to see the movie 6 Ways to Santiago. It’s about 6 different people … Continue reading A Little Me Time – The Camino

A Unique Friendship

August 13, 2015October 12, 2019 ~ Michelle Hanton OAM ~ 1 Comment

Maria Angeles is my oldest female friend. My father, a Dutch Eurasian and her father, a Spaniard, worked for the United Nations and were both posted to Jerusalem. No, they were not military observers or troops, they were permanent staff of the United Nations. We met at Schmidt Girls College, a strict convent school run … Continue reading A Unique Friendship

Pleasures in simple moments

March 19, 2015March 19, 2015 ~ Michelle Hanton OAM ~ 2 Comments

The sun has gone on holiday. I've had to drag out the heater again, pile on jumpers and walk home in the rain - luckily I have a trusty brolly in my bag. Despite the gloomy weather this as been a brilliant day which stared with a lovely email from very dear friend (Susan) sharing … Continue reading Pleasures in simple moments

Making friends

March 8, 2015March 8, 2015 ~ Michelle Hanton OAM ~ 2 Comments

How and where we make friends is something we’ve been discussing as part of the English course I teach. On a personal level, as part of my online blogging activities, I’ve also been meeting my electronic neighbours so I thought it timely to share this link to a blog I wrote last year on the … Continue reading Making friends

THANK YOU FOR CARING

February 28, 2015February 28, 2015 ~ Michelle Hanton OAM ~ Leave a comment

A very quick update to say a big thank you to all those who have taken the time to send me emails and enquired how I’m going as you’d noticed I haven’t blogged for a while. I really appreciate your concern and am truly grateful to have such wonderful followers and friends. I’ve been a … Continue reading THANK YOU FOR CARING
