A 2012 Wrap-Up

(The ship that took me to the Pacific Islands in 2012. More from this trip on my Flickr Account)

Before letting you know of my New Year's resolutions, I thought I'd first give you a 2012 wrap-up. After all, it was a year that I shared very little on this blog... But lived fully, as always!

I traveled to new places (New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Batemans Bay, Barrington Tops...) and revisited some others (Newcastle, Snowy Mountains, Jervis Bay...). I went on my first cruise where I had so much fun with great companies and fell in love with every Pacific Island I put my feet on.

I went to nice concerts (Donavon Frankenreiter, Xavier Rudd, Ben Harper, Lana Del Rey, Lady Gaga, O Rappa ans others...) and to my 5th Soundwave Festival (System of a Down, Slipknot, Limp Bizkit, Marylin Manson, The Used, Dashboard Confessional and more...).

I read nice books, watched great movies, discovered new music. I was introduced to new series (two thumbs up for Game of Thrones & Breaking Bad, and for my awesome brother who not only showed them to me but also was the best company watching it all!).

I participated in some interesting courses and seminars. I also completed 2 years on a job I love gaining new skills and responsibilities.

I had a well enjoyed 3-months vacation in Brazil in the unparalleled company of my family and friends. I also overcame a few obstacles with much appreciated support from the people I know will be always there for me.

And last, but not least, I celebrated 5 years of a very happy marriage.

It was a lot to accomplish in a single year, and I am really grateful for all that. I'm sure 2013 will be filled with as many opportunities, and it's only up to us to see and go get them.


A good way to achieve more is making a list of what we want for the upcoming year. And I read somewhere that it's a good idea to let others know so we don't forget or give up. Makes sense...

So next I'll be bothering you with a list of my New Year's resolutions for 2013! Tcharaaaan... :)
