'home'

Without even thinking about it, most people make a distinction between 'house' and 'home' or 'place I live' and 'home'. You can live somewhere for a long long time but it'll never be your home. And vice versa.

I guess I'm questioning what makes something 'homely'. The people who live there with you? The objects you fill the place with? The memories and experiences you've had there? A combination of these things?

'Home' tends to be a feeling, people call things 'homely' or say they feel 'at home' somewhere. But what happens when there's nowhere left that you feel at home?

For me, home is somewhere where I'm 100% comfortable and I have my own space to do with as I please.

I have decided to start a new blog called Michelleaa which is a lifestyle blog and I will be writing about a variety of different things. This will include anything from makeup and beauty to food to sports to DIY decorating products, just anything happening in my life that I think others might be interested in. The link is http://michelleaaalboe.blogspot.co.uk :)

I will keep this blog up, or if I manage to find a way to take it offline but keep all the content I'll do that because I used this as an online diary/journal and I think it helped me to articulate all my feelings during those rough patches I went through. My new blog will be more interactive and aimed for people to read and give me feedback etc. I may even start a Youtube channel at some point, who knows?

I may still continue to post but they won't be frequent and will be in the style of the most recent posts so this is a goodbye for now and thanks for reading :)
