Hi! I’m Laurie.
I write about books, yoga, and travel —
from a midlife point of view.

Books
I read a lot of books. I even wrote a book or two! Someday I might even publish a book. Until then, I write about books: excerpts, quotes, the occasional book review and lists. I really like lists.
I gravitate toward books with a strong sense of place, inspiring stories about women (especially in midlife), and anything that teaches me something about creativity, the world, or myself.

Yoga
To celebrate my 54th Birthday, I decided to take a Yoga Teacher Training course! It’s something I’ve been noodling on for, oh, I don’t know… three decades? You can follow along here.
I share down-to-earth yoga practices for midlife women and creatives — light-hearted, inspiring, and rooted in real life.

Travel
I split my time between a small flat in London, England and a lake house in Veyrier-du-Lac, France (on Lake Annecy). I also love travelling to new places - and reading a pile of books set there before I go. Last year, my favourite holiday was a trip to India for a good friend’s wedding. This year, I’m looking forward to walking the Haute Route from Chamonix to Zermatt.
This is where I share photos, travel notes, and city guides.
