Hello, Cinderella! This was so great to read 😄 Those crisps were a temptation back then. Can’t find them here in Lisbon. You will rock people’s lives! I have to DM you, but… THE UNIVERSE 😂 (I’m 99% sure it will make sense, 1% not, haha). It’s so cool to read your answers and see them blend with the perception we get from reading your posts 😊🌻 xx

Glad you enjoyed! Loved reading yours! The advice really means if it’s meant to be it will be. So if your meant to get it/have it/etc you won’t miss out on it. Hope that makes sense! Xx
