I just had a baby a few weeks ago and I've been watching all your Vanuary vlogs, it's been so wonderful because I can escape the mundane existence and travel with you 😊 Keep up the good work here on KZbin. So glad I found your channel. Glad you're posting every week!

[@hollyexley]

Congratulations! And thank you, I am so glad these vlogs have been keeping you company :)

I would think that rainy weather would make anyone go stir crazy in a small space. January is nearly over and probably Feb will bring Spring, so hang in there!! talking about revolution .... I think we had all better be ready for something quite large coming our way! Take care you 4 💕☮

Guapa Holly! How lovely. I’m glad you were able to enjoy some sunshine, I imagine being in a van during heavy rain loses its novelty after a while. So nice that Craig was able to get a free haircut, how kind and generous, it is the little things that restores your faith in humans. I think your poster design was great, if you don’t know all the design stuff, you are more free to create without restrictions, and I think that is a good thing 🙌 I also wish I could listen to audiobooks, I keep trying, but it’s like the words go into my ears but then just pass through my brain without me actually registering anything that is being said, it’s a handy skill when I meditate, I’ve meditated through building work before, but it is terrible for audiobooks. 😂 Thanks Holly 💖

The haircut story is so lovely! ❤ True heroes don’t wear capes haha

[@hollyexley]

I know right - we feel very lucky to have met them :)

The haircut looks good. Hope you enjoyed your read…… somewhat envious of your impending warmer day.we got up to 10° here but as it was storming it was ‘feels like 4°’. I would take Spain over U.K. any day if I could! The book about the Janes sounded really good.

Lovely vlog and the poster design is great. Impactful. It gets the message out - don’t downplay your skills - your instincts are very good!! 🙂🙂🙂

[@hollyexley]

Haha thank you Laurie :)

I like your rigged poster draft, I think it's a joy to not know the rules of graphic design, your work is free from those restraints 😊 I did a Design MA & I managed to pass it with zero digital skill, I basically leaned in to what I love, which is illustration, textiles, patterns and multimedia 🎉

[@lifeontheround]

Haha, you are both guapa 😅 Sunshine makes it all better.

[@ChantelleArts]

those skies are so *dramatic* ☺☺☺

[@cozeydaze]

The haircut part was so wholesome and illustrates exactly what you were talking about skill sharing 😂

[@hollyexley]

So true! I was thinking I would like to learn hairdressing - I think I would enjoy it. And most people need haircuts at some point, so, a great skill to share!

[@debsllewelyn230]

AAwww what Craig said 🙂

[@thesaladczar]

I dislike that about commercial illustration, too. We are the last hired after they spend too long deciding things, so we have to rush. I got RSI from it. Sí, eres muy bonita. Craig también es guapo.

Do you have a goodreads or storygraph??

[@hollyexley]

I dont! The only way I record my reading habits is in my newsletter on patreon.

You need to look at the wage % of a loaf of bread not the cost!

[@hollyexley]

Its just a poster design inspired by a famous quote about the price of bread. But also: in the last 20 years: wages have increased by 50 per cent, bread has gone up by 103 per cent. So I think you'd get a similar graph really. In just the last 2 years, bread is 30% more expensive, and wages are the same.
