I guess the title says it all…today I’ve decided to start a blog…

Who am I? Well, I’m a wife and I’m a mom of twin girls.

I suppose these are the two titles that describe my current roles in life. In a previous life (aka before the twins arrived) I was an editor, researcher, writer, and, in yet another previous life, I was a political risk analyst and a student of international relations…my how life has changed!

For the past 18 months I’ve been a stay-at-home-mom (SAHM). Being a SAHM can be a lonely journey of endless hours at home alone with two little ones, where the day consists of nappies, bottles, vomit, nap times and, if you’re lucky, a shower and a cup of tea. Of course it’s also full of lots of baby cuddles, sweet smiles and precious moments with my girls. But besides the odd phone call from mom/granny and hubby, and a few whatsapp chats with friends, conversation is limited and you find there is really no one to talk to. So…I guess this blog is a means for me to have some more conversation with the outside world. I’d love to share my experiences, perhaps impart some knowledge, be creative, and perhaps occasionally have a little rant…
