I love this. I never thought I'd end up living in Australia - I flipped a coin and came to visit some friends "temporarily" in 2019 and then... well, life - but I always had a vision of living in a cottage in the countryside. I wanted a little garden, a cat, my own space, and an outdoor veranda with a wooden table where I could sit and write.
When I first moved here, my reality was so far removed from it that I almost forgot about the dream, but after being given notice at our last house and feeling desperate, the stars aligned and this place came up to rent.
It was a similar story with my cat, too. I wanted a cat without the commitment, so I was fostering. As the only person with no other pets or kids, I ended up looking after one of their more challenging cats as a last resort. Six months later, I realised I couldn’t imagine life without him anymore and should just accept him as a gift from the universe. It's funny how looking back, I can almost see the hands of fate weaving these dreams into being.
I hope you manage to find your perfect home soon! 💜
