The Science of Gratitude

When I was in high school, Science was definitely my worst subject. It was difficult for me to wrap my brain around the equations and technical language. This video called "The Science of Happiness - An Experiment in Gratitude" explains an important theory in a way that even I can understand :)

Let's all try to be a little more grateful. Apparently we'll be happier. Enjoy!

The Very Beginning

I love blogs. There are several that I read on a daily basis. My favourites tend to be home decor/design/organizing blogs, photography blogs, and blogs about personal finance. I love being inspired by others, and there are so many blogs out there that do just that!

After thinking about it for a while, I decided to start one of my own. I'm not exactly sure what it will look like or where it will take me, but I'm excited!
I have recently moved into my first place, and I've enjoyed budgeting and saving for the down payment, as well as finding ways to furnish and decorate it for less. I also love photography and traveling. This blog will probably be a mixture of all of those things.

I spent a long time trying to think of a name for the blog. I decided that "A Place of Gratitude" captured what it is I want this blog to be. It's so easy to take things for granted, and I want this to be a place to share the things I love as a daily reminder to be grateful for what I have and experience.
