Just another heavily caffeinated, sometimes emotionally dysregulated, bloomin’ Brit (not behaving badly) abroad with AuDHD, fixations galore and a whole lot of plants, paws & dusty, desert dreams.Keep wandering with me for more ↓
This was my first morning in Egypt after booking a one-way ticket, the day before, for a sunshine break... and somehow I've ended up relocating here solo in my 30s, on a whim, which still feels mildly unhinged, tbh.Since then, life has mostly been filled with:
• creative-cosy- chaos
• hyper-fixations
• dramatic carnations
• feeding #TheStrayFurBubbas
... and trying to bloom without completely losing my (marbles & plant) plot - which in the Red Sea Coast wind, is quite the achievement, if I may say so myself.Thank you for passing by - I'll grab you a lil' cup of luxe.
Love from Tea - who, btw, only drinks coffee - xo
Warning:if you’re here for perfection,
this is your cue to exit the desert - either on a camel or in an uber - they’re usually parked next to each other.
For lil' life updates, there's lots more BTS tea in my free Telegram Channel: just take a photo or click on this QR code ↓
Just a lil' note about gifts...So ummmm, treating me to Seedlings, Sanctuary & Serotonin is admittedly… not the most straight-forward of processes.Because my wishlist lives on Amazon EG, you lovelies who are outside of Egypt cannot usually purchase from it directly without extortionate postage costs attached. Urgh.Instead, might I suggest you do the following:
The buttons below are in chronological order of these steps.1. Browse my Amazon Wishlist to choose a gift, then either...
2. Purchase & send a Gift Card code via email
3. or send a tip to my PayPal
4. or my / #TheStrayFurBubbas Revolut PotsSozzles for the inconvenience. I appreciate you! xo
Thank you so much to those of you who have treated me (and #TheStrayFurBubbas) to the gifts above, cash tips/ donations and for all the will-wishes sent on my new adventure.Forever grateful! xo
After somehow lugging 96kg of my arts & craft chaos across continents, surviving customs fees that nearly cost a kidney & navigating the never-ending saga of sourcing supplies in Egypt… Reasons Greetings will finally be reopening again soon ✨For those who might be new around these ways; I have a small bespoke wreath-making business... and often
create them live on TikTok.The name “Reasons Greetings” is a lil’ twist on “Season’s Greetings” because I firmly believe life gives us endless reasons to celebrate - not just Christmas. My wreaths are all about occasions, everyday joy, diversity, inclusivity & creating meaningful pieces that feel personal to you.I’ll update my socials & Telegram channel once I’m officially back in business mode, but if you’re interested in a future commission, feel free to pop me an email via the button below xo
#DiaryOfAPotheadHabibtiSo thankful to have a lil’ balcony dedicated to therapeutic-but-chaotic gardening experiments... I’m absolutely obsessed with attempting to grow any & everything from seed for the first time in 34 years.Current plant babies:
• Super dramatic, easily dehydrated Sunflowers, Chinese Carnations, Bougainvillea, Hollyhocks, Roses & Periwinkles
• Leggy Sweet Red Peppers, Watermelon & GrapesI had a lot more seedlings but they rudely passed away on me, so I’ll be sowing a fresh batch sometime this week.Creations en route:
• Air clay bird feeders
• Homemade Epsom salts with dried flowers
• Homemade fertilisersI’m hoping that with a pocket full of seeds, copious amounts of caffeine, a healthy dose of delusion & hose parties before 6am... almost anything can bloom.
Grow your own way.
Ciao, Bellas xo
