Join me as I share the behind-the-scenes journey of preparing for a very special visit—my best friend from childhood and her husband are coming all the way from the U.S. to visit us here in Australia! With just one bathroom in our main house, I came up with a last-minute idea: Transforming the pickers’ accomodation on our farm into a cozy guesthouse with a “river shack” vibe.

What started as a cleaning mission turned into something surprisingly meaningful and uplifting.

As I scrubbed, decorated, and envisioned the "river shack" vibe, I found myself reflecting on past homes, cozy memories with girlfriends, and the power of creating comfort and beauty from simplicity. I also dive into fascinating research on how cleaning and decluttering can improve mental health, reduce stress, and even enhance brain function.

Tune in for a story of nostalgia, laughter, a little bit of science, and a whole lot of heart.❤️
