I’m not making it up, I promise. Ok, I admit, until I go to Boston/Cape Cod in LESS THAN THREE WEEKS, I don’t have an entirety of actual destinations to write about. But reverse culture shock is a topic that I’ve wanted to talk about for a while, because until I was hit by a … Continue reading
Since I was 9 years old, I’ve been on cruises. Sometimes I still get embarrassed how awfully middle class this is. But it allowed me to see the world and waking up in a new country or city every day is still one of the greatest, overwhelming joys I have in my memory. Thing is … Continue reading
Mid-October, blue skies, shimmering canals and cobbled streets. I knew I was going to like Bruges from the start. It even had windmills. Windmills. Living in London, I’m used to a bit of a dirty city (I still love you regardless, London). Bruges is sparkling clean to an incredible degree. Everything looks so fresh, even … Continue reading
What? Can you even surf in England? Are you crazy? – What I usually hear. We’ve all got the image in our minds. Blonde tousled hair, tanned, toned (this is man or woman by the way), most probably Californian or Australian. Kelly Slater (minus the hair…), Stephanie Gilmore (my girl crush), Alana Blanchard (the girl … Continue reading
For a few months now I haven’t had much going on travel-wise. We can blame that on running out of money and graduating from university – and the exhaustion of trying to find a job that comes with it, of course. BUT… there are plans coming together that I’m very excited to do and write … Continue reading
I say snooping, because I’m probably not cool or “hip” enough to be around here. But this is where I got my internship, so here I am, exploring the streets of Shoreditch whether the trendsetters like it or not! I should note: I actually quite like Shoreditch and have been meaning to go on some … Continue reading
It’s no secret that I love rooftop bars – cocktail in hand, looking out to the bright lights of any city is something that will always give me a little chill (out of excitement, but maybe from a breeze too). They’re not even just for drinking (see Bussey Building below). I recently went to two … Continue reading
Like all good porn (maybe? I don’t know), I’m spreading this (again, I’m assuming it spreads). I have distributed pictures of mine with the link to this blog written (rather nicely) on the back around London. It would be nice that if people found them, it would just be something different to their day, a … Continue reading
How many of us really know our home city? Unless you’ve answered, “Yeah, I do, really well” and I’ve stumbled into an awkward situation here, I’ll take the people who answered, “Actually, not that well” and bond in our neglect. You may know some places to go, the general vibes of neighbourhoods, like I do, … Continue reading
I love a good brunch. And to celebrate my Graduation (yay) with my family, we went to an all time favourite: brunch at the Intercontinental London Park Lane Hotel. I won’t lie, I was genuinely reminiscing the day before about all the food I was going to eat, hoping they’d have it all there this … Continue reading
Kirst over the World
