Cocktails, Pizza and Jazz at Ray’s Bar, Dalston; A Review
Cocktails, pizza and jazz. Need I say more? Shall I just end it here? I know you’re already sold on the idea. Nevertheless let us continue. Ray’s Bar in Dalston only opened last November, taking the place of the beloved club, Dance Tunnel. Located under its foodie older brother Voodoo Ray’s, the bar takes on […]
Two Tribes Meet in the Okavango Delta, Botswana
I’ve wanted to post this story for quite a while. I actually wrote it just over a year ago but never got around to pressing publish. I haven’t particularly written about my trip to Botswana but I will be sharing more tales of my African adventure over the coming months. So as a sweet teaser […]
Mommi does Music, Among Other Greatness; A Review
Guess whose back. Back again. Clapham’s back. Tell a friend. Ok so Clapham might not have exactly gone out of fashion, I mean far from it. But with other areas of London opening up new restaurants east, west and city central, Clapham’s maybe not had so much love from the food enthused recently. Tell me […]
Nominated for Travel Blogger of the Year… SAY WHAT.
Most Mondays I slowly awake to the sound of busy London life, lie there awaiting that dreadful iPhone alarm tone before snoozing for 15 minutes trying to steal as much body heat as possible from Allyn before I brave my duvet exit. Then I’ll sigh, start slowly edging towards the side of the bed as […]
48 Hours in Paris; Île de la Cité and the Latin Quarter
On my second day in Paris, Mum and I made our way to Saint Michel on the metro line, stopping of a local creperie before wandering over to the islands. Île de la Cité Although we didn’t plan on joining the extremely long queue into the cathedral, we enjoyed examining the incredible exteriors of Notre Dame […]
Ordering from the Travel Menu
“If you could go anywhere in the world, where would go?” I genuinely hate that question. Could you only eat one meal for the rest of your life? Would you really only take one thing to a desert island? Do you have a favourite child? Okay, perhaps a little extreme but you get my point. […]
48 hours in Paris; Saint-Germain-des-Pres & the Jardin des Tuileries
Paris, oh Paris. How much I have fallen for you. Since only visiting once as a small child, I have always wanted to go back to the famous European city that seems to encapsulate all who visit. So after a lucky work trip to the city, I put my Mum on a quick 2 hour […]
How Not to See Niagara Falls
Sometimes, things don’t always go to plan. Sometimes, those things are a trip to one of the most recognised parts of the world, as my friend Beth and I figured out on a long, stressful day in Toronto. Although we made it to the gushing waters of North America’s famous falls, our journey that led […]
Doggy Afternoon Tea at Egerton House Hotel
Apart from walks in the park and the occasional pub or beer garden, it can be a struggle to think of ways to keep your pooch entertained in London. So when my fellow blogger Emma, from Adventures of a London Kiwi, recommended a pup-friendly experience at the Egerton House Hotel, I immediately gave it a Google. […]
Goodbye Winter, Hello Spring at Somerset House; Restaurant Review
Today for the first time on my walk home from the station , I heard the sweet sound of bird song, the familiar yet forgotten reminder that the seasons are changing. Whilst the ice cream man (perhaps a little prematurely) plays his nursery tune to the streets below, I feel now is as good a […]
