‘Life can be a bit of a [**@@!!!],

But with a stiff upper lip,

And a stiff G&T,

It's worth carrying on with.'

Hi,

I'm Katrina, aka OxfordWyf, working mainly from home as a writer and freelance journalist in the beautiful city of Oxford, England. I have been featured in:

A collage of logos from various media publications, including The Telegraph, Metro, The Lady, and Woman's Weekly.
Read my magazine features


Like all of us I’ve had quite a few 'challenges' in life, including midlife divorce, which devastated me, but I made up my mind that I did not want it to ruin the rest of my life.


I made it my mission to recover and rebuild by redesigning my life and working on myself.


Today, I’m happily re-married, love my life, and vowed to support and inspire other women who have been through the same, or some significant loss, through my project:

A person wearing a wide-brimmed black hat, facing downwards, with a necklace visible.
A white pitcher filled with dried lavender sits next to a rustic, white-washed empty picture frame on a wooden surface.
Two clear glasses filled with water and lemon wedges, with a whole lemon in the background against a white backdrop.
A low bun hairstyle adorned with small light pink roses, a blue thistle, and green leaves on the side.
