Farewell ...

 

My dear friends ...

It is with a mixture of melancholia and unexpected relief that I announce my extended sabbatical from my beloved blog and decorating business, White & Wander...

 

The blog has been with me as I've wandered the globe for these past 5 years, but the online world has changed so dramatically and I feel it is the right time to leave it behind and continue my adventures in the real world.

 

Never in the fashion of doing things by halves, it's not only the blog that is going into storage: I've packed up my beautiful loft and stowed my treasures in a little storage unit, packed up our shop collections into the neighbouring unit (it looks so lovely all together!), and am busily squirrelling away my pennies for a one way ticket overseas to wander until my heart is hopefully content.

 

And, as a conversation with a fellow wanderer recently enlightened me, I'm not a nomad as I've so often called myself, for nomads will wander forever; rather I'm a tumbleweed, for I hold great hope that one day I will come to a standstill when find my home..

 

And when I find my home, I may very well resurrect White & Wander, but for now I bid you all a very fond farewell.

 

Much love, Emma x
