Since we live mostly apart [Mahala in the UK, me in the US] we try and make up for it whenever we're together. Here are more shared memories we cherish.

The wonder | wander | women are hardly ever in the same time zone, much less in the same place. So we spend as much time as we can in each other's company. Our favourite thing to do together (besides eating!) is take walks around our neighbourhood. (Often after eating!)

2017 | The Year of the Yin Red Fire Chicken

Kung Hei Fat Choi! Happy Chinese New Year 2017 to everyone from wonder | wander | women!

Being part Chinese and mostly Asian, we celebrate Chinese New Year with lots of fanfare and food.

The year of the Yin Red Fire Rooster is the Year of Money, symbolized by seven Chinese characteristics of punctuality and prosperity.
