This year has been a bit of a mad one, what with moving to the other side of the world and all. As well as that, I somehow managed to fit in a bunch of other trips, so these are my highlights. Video: https://youtu.be/bfJJgxSydP4 New York This was an absolute dream trip with my mum. … Continue reading 2018 TRAVEL HIGHLIGHTS
Boston I’ve been to Chicago, New York, Washington DC, Nashville… Basically a bunch of US cities in the east, but until this road trip I had never made it to Boston. It’s been on my list for a while so I was very excited to finally go. This may seem like a bit of a … Continue reading NEW ENGLAND AUTUMN ROAD TRIP HIGHLIGHTS
The last post ended with us leaving Boston, on the way to our next stop - Old Orchard Beach. Why Old Orchard Beach? Well, as I mentioned previously, where we ended up staying was picked mostly on a cost basis. Meaning the lower the cost, the more likely it would be that we would stay … Continue reading BOSTON TO TORONTO| AUTUMN ROAD TRIP
On our second day, we woke up in Lenox and did the short drive into Boston (info on the first leg of our journey here). When we looked at accommodation in Boston, we were blown away - it's so, so bloody expensive. As in, hundreds of pounds a night. A NIGHT. I understand in cities, … Continue reading BOSTON | AUTUMN ROAD TRIP
A week after Hamilton and I moved to Toronto, we made the bold move to leave Toronto. Not because we didn't love it here (we did/still do) but there were bigger plans afoot for the week, an entire season, in fact... Autumn. AKA fall. Ok yeh it was a bit random but it made sense … Continue reading TORONTO TO BOSTON | AUTUMN ROAD TRIP
Most of our time in New York was spent in mid/uptown but this was our final day so we went AWOL (to other nice places). First stop, Brooklyn Bridge. This day (funnily enough the one we were spending the majority of outside) was absolutely FREEZING but it didn't put us off - we wrapped up … Continue reading (AIN’T SEEN NOTHIN YET UNTIL YOU’RE) DOWNTOWN | DAY 5 | NEW YORK
This may be a slightly shorter blog than normal seeing as day 4 was a bit of a shopping day and I don't have the time to list all of the things that I purchased. What I will say is that I love Free People with all my heart. Sephora, you guys are pretty damn … Continue reading COMEDY AND CHEESECAKE | DAY 4 | NEW YORK
And suddenly, the third day was upon us. It came round very quickly and proved a point about making the most of your time. I think we had done pretty well so far but this day really showed you can always do more. It wasn't the best weather so it worked out quite well for … Continue reading ALL THE MUSEUMS | DAY 3 | NEW YORK
A cold, January morning in New York City. A mother and daughter awake early and rush out of their midtown hotel towards their pre-agreed destination; the Stardust Diner in Times Square.
Being the brave adventurers we are, last month my mum and I left the averagely cold weather of London for the extreme cold that was New York at the time. We were there for 5 days and did about 5 million things. Not bad going. Plus, after panic buying jumpers and squashing them into our luggage, … Continue reading LDN – NY | DAY 1 | NEW YORK
