5 Time-Tracking Tools Every Freelancer Needs
When I first started out as a virtual assistant, I kept things simple—sometimes tracking my time with nothing more than my phone’s timer. While it worked at a pinch, I quickly realised it was hard to keep track of which client or project a task belonged to, let alone add notes about what I’d done. That’s where time-tracking apps come in handy. They allow you to record your hours, organise them by client or project, and even add notes to make invoicing easier.

I’ve always wanted to travel and live abroad.
After university, where I studied modern languages, I moved into administrative and secretarial work. Gradually, those roles evolved and I started picking up more technical work, learning new systems, building websites, editing videos, and taking on social media and blog writing.
Eventually, that grew into my own business, working online and now based on the island of Crete in Greece.
On the way, I’ve learned a lot about how to find and work with clients, how to stay disciplined when you’re working for yourself, and how to keep building new skills.
This site brings together some of that experience. It’s here for anyone thinking about working remotely, or already doing it, and trying to make it work in a way that feels sustainable.
There are also a few glimpses of life here on the incredible island of Crete, because that’s part of the story too.
