One Night in Newcastle

Though I have visited Newcastle many times before, those were during my student days and the only memories I have are of hazy nights out, great breakfasts, and some really embarrassing photographs. A few years older and wiser, Pablo and I were both really looking forward to see the city with less bleary eyes. It had […]

6 Things To Do In Isle of Lewis and Harris , Scotland

When Pablo first told me that we were heading to the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides for a family trip to celebrate his mum’s birthday my first thought was: that’s FARRRR. Which wasn’t wrong, but the almost 800 miles from London was so worth the trek. After a couple of nights in Glasgow and […]

24 Hours In Glasgow

Visiting Glasgow has always been a real treat for me, even as a child it was always my city of choice for a day out but with so much to see a day (or even two) just isn’t enough time to explore Scotland’s largest city. I am lucky that I’ve got some great friends in […]

Bushwick, New York Guide

Bushwick has fast become my favourite place in New York, a cool art neighborhood that, despite rapidly growing into a hipster hotspot, retains its gritty edge.

A Perfectly Imperfect Proposal

I got proposed to on a Brooklyn street corner beside a grimey sticker covered ATM, whilst drinking a pint- and it was perfect. This post comes as more of a surprise to me than it does to you. Marriage is something I have never really considered, but when Pablo asked if I would be his […]

Being My Own Boss: Week One

It’s been an entire week of being my own boss which I know is no time at all, however, even in just seven days I feel like I’ve learned a few lessons very quickly. I am fortunate in that my last job, despite having a brilliant boss, I pretty much self managed and also juggled […]

A Day at Coney Island, New York

Coney Island was top of my “must see” list this visit to New York. Though Pablo and I have been fortunate enough to visit the city many times before, something always got in the way of us venturing to the famous seaside attraction. This trip it was firmly in the diary even before we touched […]

10 Alternative Things To Do In Vegas If Don’t Drink or Gamble

I never thought Las Vegas was my scene; I’m not a gambler (because I don’t have the money to throw away) and even though I am partial to drinking I am more of chilled out dive bar kind of chick. It wasn’t until I actually visited Vegas I realised how much more there was to […]
