In the meantime, busy animals hurry to their burrows in preparation for hibernation.

[Mental Health]: Anxiety is not the same as nervousness.
A few months ago I made that inevitable leap in life of finally moving out of my parent’s house. Not only did I break the barriers within my comfort zone by living without my immediate family; I moved abroad from the UK to France, and then again from France to South Korea. People move abroad…
