EDITOR’S LETTER
Tanya’s top five
Australian House & Garden
YOUR H&G • And exhale... Who would have thought that we would ever need such a reminder? After not having a break in 2020, I surely did! As I headed down to the coast with my husband, I grabbed a copy of the January issue, a small indulgence which has now become a necessity. Not just a magazine but a holiday within itself; a time to plan, relax and dream. A time to exhale and remember that I am safe and fortunate to be in my home, in this great country and that life continues.
