Yes I had a baby recently and no, this is not her (you may catch a glimpse of the little cutie in my Stories if you’re curious). This is me as a child and I find this picture so representative of my current state as a new mum - at first glance, it’s cute… https://t.co/cakyjBzPR8

Szwischen. Apparently, a word for “the time when you are just waiting for your baby to arrive” (German-speaking friends, feel free to put me right) according to @tellmeagoodbirthstory. I am *trying hard* to *take it easy*, a contradiction in terms I know… https://t.co/Z52OuNC9wI

This is not an #unrelatedcaption. It’s #worldmentalhealthday today - a big part of me is cringing at the thought of #hashtag activism. Another part of me feels that in my darkest days, if I only had seen and heard and befriended more people who were not … https://t.co/WcN0ZlCx7T

Here’s me looking smug next to an #infinitypool. It’s a golden Insta shot, right?!?! Or should I have been in the water looking pensively to the horizon? More tanned? More toned? With more boobs? Maybe not wearing a PIZZA swimsuit in a totally non-ironic… https://t.co/oOi86gOCRt

@Dixons_Travel thanks to the nice guy in your Heathrow store who cleaned my phone screen while I was paying for my headphones. Nice gesture!!!

[Serena @orient_espresso]

Yes, this is a very bad #wheelpose. But who cares? My heart❣is open, I am at one with my breath and nature, and I feel better than I ever did in my body. Years of eating disorders had left me looking at physical activity only as a “burning calories/k… https://t.co/ukKN78bvQD

Congrats @guan_chua and @GulletGirl on your beautiful wedding!!! #joguan2018

[Serena @orient_espresso]

@homiliai @polupoke Yep. Picture shows nice broccoli and long beans...but you get carrots

[Serena @orient_espresso]

Hey @polupoke - this does NOT look like in the picture in store which had greens...I asked and was told there were vegetables in the £8.50 salmon bowl, sure if you count carrot garnish... 🤷🏼‍♀️

Aaaaaand...IT’S BACK! The Gold Rush cowboy in strapping form, one of my favourite pieces of #streetart or simply #art in the whole of Londontown, just steps away from home in Hackney Wick. Well done @teddybaden for “restoring” this to its former glory (a… https://t.co/dh1tWJGHEF

Who needs the #royal wedding when we have the family Spring gathering in #Abruzzo?! 🤣🤣🤣 I may not be wearing Givenchy and diamonds 💎(more like elasticated pants) but the food is better for sure 😝 https://t.co/vMMCnd1qSG

[Serena @orient_espresso]

What a perfect day for a @petershamnurseries lunch! The canopies literally raining flowers 💐 🌹 on us and on the dainty food, and so much sunshine I got minor sunburn. Can’t believe it took me so long to go back to Richmond Park, one of my favourite L… https://t.co/U0FDw9Q846

@KSegedin there’s hope! they only took 4 weeks to process my PR application…good luck

@British_Airways Do you hate me or what? The return flight is also late, no communication whatsoever, no new departing time?!

[Serena @orient_espresso]

@British_Airways our Granada flight has been diverted and we are stranded in Orly with no information, food or staff in sight. To fly, to serve, at the moment you’re doing neither 😭

[Serena @orient_espresso]

@British_Airways Yes, it only took six hours of waiting with no news to be put on a flight for the next day, a different airport 20miles away, and in a bad Hotel. Holiday ruined. Really disappointed in BA

[Serena @orient_espresso]

@British_Airways Is anyone ever replying?

[Serena @orient_espresso]

@British_Airways BA 3289. We have been waiting for five hours, still waiting for someone to arrange a hotel as we can’t fly till tomorrow. This is ludicrous

Rendang crispy my ass 🇲🇾+🇮🇩+🇸🇬👊👊👊🇬🇧

[Serena @orient_espresso]

@British_Airways plane to Granada diverted to Paris instead, no info, food or water, kids and people in wheelchair stranded for hours - this is shameful
