Hi, I’m Des! Welcome to my little corner of the internet, where my love of books meets my passion for personal growth and my journey into beekeeping.

The name Botaniq Living comes from the idea that, like plants, we thrive when we nurture ourselves a little every day. Books have always been my source of inspiration — whether it’s a story that shifts my perspective, a guide with practical tools, or a gentle reminder to pause and reflect.

Here, I share book recommendations on self-improvement, meaningful living, and happiness — along with my beekeeping adventures, from starting my first hive to discovering the amazing world of bees. It’s all about exploring life intentionally and celebrating the small joys along the way.

I hope you enjoy the content ✨ and that it inspires you to learn, grow, and have fun along the journey!
