US Expat living in London
Well, I'm catching up on some blog posts here so bear with me. Yes, I AM posting about this past spring (and early summer) now in August. A lot has happened since April! A visit from my mom, a brief romance that led to a friendship, a couple out of town jaunts and lots of... Continue Reading →
Last weekend was a bank holiday (hooray!) which meant I had an extra weekend day to do something fun! My lovely friends Carla and Prak invited me to spend the night at theirs in Bristol. I had been to Bristol before so I was fine with just hanging out and getting out of ye olde... Continue Reading →
I get a lot of questions about where is best to go in London. I'm going to try to add to this list as I find more great places to go and things to do but here's what I can think of right now. Firstly it's important to know where you'll be staying - I... Continue Reading →
Not wanting to spend my entire weekend in the flat during this weekend's Bank Holiday (Good Friday and Easter Monday) and lamenting the bad weather - I decided to endure the bad weather somewhere else!

I was looking forward to heading home to reconnect with some friends, love on my family and not wear a hat, gloves, a scarf, three layers and a heavy coat. My trip started from Heathrow and...

One of my colleagues has a knack for finding the most weird and fun things happening around London. The latest thing she organised was a trip to Ballie Ballerson in Shoreditch, not too far from Old Street tube station. Basically, it's one of those ball pits we all used to love as kids, then cringed... Continue Reading →
I try to make an effort to get out of the house on weekends if I don't have plans. Even if the weather is a bit grim I think it's important to get some walking in and see what's going on in the neighbourhood. I've been meaning to get to Columbia Road Flower Market for... Continue Reading →
