Green Love A’Fair – Earth Day Celebration

What do you do when it’s been almost 5 months since your last post? Do you continue to procrastinate and let your blog slowly disappear into oblivion, or do you decide to pick up again and start back where you left off? Even if it’s for no other reason than for me to keep a log of what we have been up to for the sake of my own memories. I have honestly felt rather daunted about the task of updating any news.. the year began out so hectic with work that I lost myself and didn’t find I was in a good head space for posting anything. Any spare second I had, I wanted to be as far away from my computer as possible, trying to be present for Samudra, and not thinking about too much else.

After too many hours spent at my desk indoors, I am always longing to be outside, away from the air conditioners and breathing in some fresh air, but sometimes I really struggle to find a good place to escape to. So of course I was incredibly happy to see an announcement for the return of Green Love A’Fair to Como Park Kemang at the end of April. Oh how I have needed this again!

This was the 3rd edition of the market and this time the theme was “Earth Day” and it was absolutely gorgeous as always. This was the biggest turn out I have seen yet and so fun as so many friends turned up throughout the day to come and chill out, drink wine, eat delicious food, listen to smooth tunes and laze about and just enjoy being in the colourful outdoors.

Keep your eyes and ears out as the next event should be after Idul Fitri this year….
