Helen's Log

Helen’s Log is a weekly audio diary from Helen Bauer - it’s a space to catch up, ramble, overshare, and document the weird little things that make up her week. From deep dives into Ancient Greece to holidays in Alicante. From Helen’s latest obsession with essential oils to rewatching My Big Fat Greek Wedding for the hundredth time. Think of it as a diary without the hand cramps or spelling stress....
