It feels like just yesterday we were celebrating the beginning of the new year, and now we find ourselves already approaching the end of March. I’m reminded once again of the transient beauty of spring season. And I’m happy to share moments of joy and companionship with all of you.

In the quiet stillness of a spring morning, there exists a delicate dance between light and shadow. It is a moment of ephemeral beauty, where the gentle rays of the sun penetrate the fabric of my home, As I sit by the window, basking in the warmth of the morning sun,

I am filled with a sense of gratitude and awe for the beauty that surrounds me. Outside, the world is coming to life, as birds chirp and flowers bloom, becoming an endless source of inspiration for my videos. The zebra grass in our garden is an unusual looking grass,

Named for its bright green foliage decorated by horizontal cream bands. In early spring, I cut them back before new foliage appears. And those could be use as a dried flower vase arrangement. Ornamental grasses are magnificent in dried flower arrangements and are a wonderful addition to home decoration or DIY craft.

As a video creator and being so active online with a significant number of followers across different social medias, I need to find the balance between connection and privacy protection. That’s the reason I’ve been using Surfshark – a VPN (Virtual Private Network) for a while. My internet traffic will route through a distant server

And then send it onward to its destination. This makes it appear as if I am accessing the internet from the location of the server, not my actual location. It hides my IP address, preventing network service providers, hackers, advertisers & potential watchers from monitoring my online activities.

Public Wi-Fi in places such as Cafes, train stations & airports are especially problematic with these issues. Surfshark VPN gives me peace of mind when browsing the web. Websites also adjust prices using your location and cookies. You can use VPN to save money when shopping for things

Such as flights, hotel rooms, and car rentals. With over 3200 servers in over 100+ countries, no matter where you are, Surfshark VPN will provide you with fast, protected internet access. Use the promo code ThuyDao for an exclusive deal plus extra 3 months free of using Surfshark.

You can find the link in the description box & pinned comment. There is a 30 day money-back guarantee for a stress-free purchase. Let’s make some cheese potato boat today. Scrub potatoes. The potato skin has as much nutrients as the interior of the potato! Rub potato skin with a little olive oil.

Season to taste. Bake at 170°C for 40 minutes. Carefully scoop out the inside, leaving shells intact. I used mushroom but you can add ham as well. Season to taste. Add chopped parsley. Top each potato with grated mozzarella. Bake at 175°C for 8 minutes. Don’t throw broccoli stem away!

Just cut off the bottom 2-4 cm which is tough and woody. The rest is delicious and tastes like kohlrabi. I want to show you how to make orange candles in 2 ways. The first method is with olive oil. Cut an orange in half. Use knife and spoon to remove the flesh (to eat!).

Be careful and don’t break the stem in the middle. Fill with olive oil. For the first use, it can take up to 20-30 seconds for the stem to burn. The second method is using soy wax. Place soy wax flakes in a glass bowl,

And place the bowl on a saucepan about a third full of water. Heat the wax, stirring occasionally, until it is soft and pourable. Add scents of your choice. Here I used orange & lemongrass essential oils. Soy candles don’t give off soot. They last longer than candles made from beeswax

Burn in a way that reduces the amount of unburned wax. T’s learning a new piano piece. It’s called “Comptine d’un autre été : L’Après-midi” which translate to “Nursery rhyme of another summer: the afternoon” 1 of the soundtrack of the French film “Amélie”, one of my most favorite films.

Composed of light, upbeat, nearly childlike sounds with hints of French romanticism, the movie’s score captures the magical & mysterious nature of Amelie, and her angelic sense of observation and curiosity, as she navigates through the street of Montmartre, attempts to find the owner of a mysterious book of passport picture-like photographs.

The film finds its charm in the little things. Not a lot of movies create their own sort of universe like this. But every now and then movies come along that speak out to you and emotionally touch you in some way. The music of Yann Tiersen in this 2001 film

Brings out the innate beauty of the human spirit, the magic within life’s small moments, and the curious little French girl that exists within all of us. Let’s be honest, long nature walks can easily bore small kids. But every kid loves treasure hunting!

Geocaching offers a fun way for the whole family to spend time outdoors. It’s a high-tech treasure hunt that can help engage your kids in the natural world. Geocaching started in early 2000. When the website launched, only 75 geocaches had been hidden. Today, there are over 3 million geocaches

And millions of active geocachers playing the game. Geocaches come in all different shapes, sizes, and difficulties and are hidden in both rural and urban settings. Once you find a geocache, open it up and sign the logbook. You may discover some trade items inside the geocache.

The general rule of thumb is if you take something, leave something of equal or greater value. Walking without purpose may frustrate small kids, so by giving them a mission to focus, it keeps them entertained, and gradually, we build their love to the nature and outdoor. And it’s totally free!

You need a smartphone and the free Geocaching app or GPS tracker, and you’re good to go! Whenever Alexia found something she likes, she thought this was the coolest thing ever and it made it feel like a real treasure to her! Give it a try with your kid this weekend. It’s totally fun 😉
