This year started off a bit rocky so I was determined not to end the year the same way. For once I planned my New Year’s Eve—something I haven’t done in a long time.

Each year, as one year ends and another begins, I reflect on the year, trying to remember all the good things that happened. It’s funny though how often the not-so-good moments are the ones that come to mind first—for me, anyway. This year I decided to reflect not just on memories but by going through my photos to see all the wonderful things that actually happened—the things I chose to capture, and the people I have shared these moments with. What a year it has been! Some of the highlights as I scroll through my photos—I visited 11 countries, 8 for the first time, saw James in concert, saw Oasis in concert!!, got my motorcycle license and spent quality time each month with people I love.

I started the year with some uncertainty but feel I am ending it with clarity. Sometimes I need to remove myself completely or put myself right in the centre of things to gain perspective. Lighter, and ready to embrace change and new experiences, I am excited to celebrate the end of 2025 and welcome 2026.

The planned event to end 2025 combined a few things I love—meeting new people and having new experiences and good food and wine. I booked a 9-course tasting menu at Fogòn Asado, recommended in the MICHELIN Guide Argentina 2024/2025. Sooooo exciting!

And here is a taste of the evening and tasting menu- what an experience! There were Americans, Danish, British and us!

And just like that, it was 2026!

Here’s to it! xo
