Episode 7!💥

Having a 👶 was never part of Prue’s plan, but then again, not much in her adventurous life IS.

In this episode, my friend dives into all the fun details of her baby journey in Bangkok: from hospital hunting, to a FIVE-day labour (ouch), to lactation consultant cafes, and lots more. 🍼

I hope you enjoy!

Question: what is the best perk and worst quirk of having a baby where you live in the world 🌎?

05/06/2022

Me: look at this view! Let’s take some pics.
Prue: sure 🤪

Always one to laugh at the ridiculousness of life, Prue is a fun podcast guest.

On the next ep 🎙 we discuss Prue’s experience of being prego,🤰🏻and having a baby, in Bangkok 🇹🇭 with a sprinkling of pandemic isolation chucked in for an extra laugh. None of this was part of any kind of ‘life plan’ — but oh how it was embraced.

Coming soon!

LINK IN BIO.

As I’m preparing to move back to London 🇬🇧, I couldn’t help but wonder (ha) - in different circumstances, could this have been my 'forever home'? 🤔🇩🇪

In this episode, I discuss with this quirky, sprawling, fascinating city. From dress code, to the language, to benefits of a social system, we discuss everything Berlin - a place that has seen me through almost 3 years of life amidst the pandemic sh*tshow. 🙏

This one was a tad emosh, but I’m so happy to share it. ❤️

Also: it’s a week late, because I’ve been too busy enjoying the place. 😂😏🤪

Special thx to Thom Nagy for his track 'Sunk', adding a little extra Berlin vibe to the story.
