For a while now I've wanted to experience solo travel - sure, I've had tastes it over the years when I've flown/travelled alone but always been meeting people at the other end. I'd say I'm quite an independent person; more than happy going to a museum or for coffee on my own. Living in London, … Continue reading A Solo Day in Paris
Updated May 2020 It took me a long time to compile this list simply because I kept disagreeing with myself. I planned a top ten then contemplated making it longer, to fit in the other places that definitely do warrant a mention but sadly don’t quite make it (in my eyes). Of course, there’s plenty … Continue reading MY TOP 10 EUROPEAN CITIES
I just realised that in my last post (when we arrived in Tours), I didn't think to point out that Tours is a city in France. I did not arrive somewhere in order to take multiple tours. I'm not sure if that needed clarification or not but there you go. As you were. TOURS Day … Continue reading Day 3 | TOURS | WINE TRIP

We got really, really lucky with the weather in that it was boiling hot with bright sunshine, out of … Continue reading DAY 1 | PARIS | FRENCH WINE TOUR

The leaves were on the ground. Rain fell from the sky. Cold shrouded us. It was autumn and it was … Continue reading PARIS IN AUTUMN | WEEKEND WANDERING
The recent cold and fog has given me some mountain vibes; I've been skiing since I was 5, mostly in Europe and once in America. You could even say skiing is in my blood, I mean it's pretty much the reason for my existence... Without it my parents wouldn't have met whilst in Soll, Austria. … Continue reading MY TOP 5 FAVOURITE SKI AREAS
Last week an ever so slight earth shattering disaster occurred in my home... I accidentally tumble dried one of my absolute favourite vintage jumpers. (I blame the new washing machine with confusing settings. I mean, why is there an automatic dry function on a wool spin?! WHY?) Not only was this jumper vintage, but it was … Continue reading VINTAGE SHOPPING | PARIS
