Polish Gal in London

Clever Girl still remembers the 90’s when the property in London was quite affordable. It was just before the Russians, the Asians, and… the other Asians, together with the property developers priced everyone out, and that was precisely the time when the Clever Girl invested in property herself. Clever Girl owns the house she lives…

Clever Girl has been around the block for enough time to know that a lot of people are all about prestige and money. However, now and then she is caught off guard and finds herself surprised by the upgraded continuously level of social convention of the upper middle class. It was at the school picnic…

Clever Girl just loves meeting new people, both in her professional and personal life. One way of meeting them in her professional life is hiring freelancers for developing new projects. When she likes someone, and they prove to be compatible with working with the Clever Girl, she often re-hires the same person for several projects. What…

Clever Girl sends her children to the best school she could find. Of course, the school is not ideal, but Clever Girl knows by now that not that many things in life are the way she would like them to be and not everything (although a lot) can be bent to her liking. She tries to…

It’s summer. It’s hot outside. The general population usually goes on holiday to relax and spend quality time with their families and friends. In this aspect of life, I’m no different from anyone else. I want to relax, chill out and forget about the everyday routine at least once a year. Little O. finished school…

I have no idea what triggered my trip into the memory line of my 20’s. But here I was sitting in an empty apartment (the Little O. was staying with his dad over the weekend, so I had all the time in the world to think things up and to be nostalgic), stuffing my face…

Every parent will tell you that weekdays are crazy. By crazy I mean very hectic, mechanical, boring in a way & repetitive. Kind of like ‘Groundhog Day’. When I was a child, a concept of having only seven days a week that kept repeating itself was beyond my understanding. At the age of 5, I…
