It's been a fairly good week for me - four day weekend (Easter) included. Initially I thought the long weekend wouldn't have any impact on me; I mean, the weekends and the weekdays all pretty much roll into one. But my housemates and I really embraced the spirit of a bank holiday and managed to … Continue reading 7 Things I’ve Enjoyed (At Home) This Week | Post 2

Travel at Home
Spending more time at home recently means I've been doing some well needed tidying up and inevitably discovering items & souvenirs that I hadn't seen/thought about in a little while. I've also been eating my way through the cupboards and coming across tea/foods which I had been 'saving for a special occasion'. I'm not sure … Continue reading Travel at Home
8 Things I’ve Enjoyed (at home) This Week | Post 1
As much as I like thinking about the amazing Jewish food I had in Budapest (Mazel Tov restaurant is incredible), coming across amazing vintage finds in Paris and hiking around the Italian lakes on a sunny winter day; experiences I had in the months before all this came around, and as excited as I was … Continue reading 8 Things I’ve Enjoyed (at home) This Week | Post 1

INTRODUCING BONNIE, THE CAVACHON PUPPY
As I've mentioned before, we recently had a new addition to the group: Bonnie, my cavachon puppy. Seeing as I'm going away for a month on Friday, and so I won't see her (don't worry, my parents will be taking excellent care of her whilst I'm in America), I'm spending my weekend at home fussing … Continue reading INTRODUCING BONNIE, THE CAVACHON PUPPY
THAT TIME MY PICTURE WAS USED IN A TRAVEL ADVERT
Well, the title pretty much says it all with this one, but nonetheless, I shall explain; in 2013 I did the Americana Road Trip tour with Trek America. As part of that trip, we went to Monument Valley, where this photograph was taken: Trek America asked for people to send in pictures from their … Continue reading THAT TIME MY PICTURE WAS USED IN A TRAVEL ADVERT
SUFFOLK SPECIAL BLEND TEA | FOOD FRIDAY
Last weekend I went to visit a good friend of mine, who lives in Ipswich, Suffolk (East Anglia, England). Whilst there we saw all the sights - a big bridge, the river, the harbour, some statues and the local museum. Out of these, funnily enough, the museum was my favourite. Honestly, I wish this museum … Continue reading SUFFOLK SPECIAL BLEND TEA | FOOD FRIDAY
THE WORLD’S MOST FAMOUS TRAIN | ORIENT EXPRESS
I tweeted about this a couple of weeks ago, but I'm still thinking about it. The TV show, 'The World's Most Famous Train' was (in the UK) on Channel 4 at 8pm on Monday 30th November, and was a one off behind the scenes look at the historical Orient Express train that travels from London to Venice. The trailer can … Continue reading THE WORLD’S MOST FAMOUS TRAIN | ORIENT EXPRESS

HARROD’S WINTER TEA | FOOD FRIDAY
"From now on, this is my go to Winter tea. It costs a tenner for a tin this size, so it's not going to be my everyday variety - more like a Christmas treat."
