Melbourne 2009
I’d be lying if I wasn’t a little bit homesick at the moment, it’s snowing in London and Melbourne is experiencing an endless summer – in autumn. I took these photos back in 2009, long before I knew what -6.4 degrees felt like.

I emerged from the fitting room in my maroon and whites and met Mum’s gaze as she smiled adoringly. ‘Perfect!’ she chirped. My eyes scanned the room to seek the approval of my two little sisters but they were no-where to be found. Something – anything – would probably be more amusing than their big …
If you’re at that hungover-need-caffeine-to-survive point like I was the day before my birthday. Put this place on your to-do list. Second best coffee I’ve had in Europe and whilst I tend to exaggerate a lot… I’m not this time. Ten Belles 10 rue de la Grange aux Belles 75010 Paris
hahahaha! Did you like my pun? Friday evening was too slow on the approach last week and it’s finally cold here in London so in order to feed my mind, body and spirit I needed some sustenance of the burger variety. London is a little burger crazy at the moment, there’s pop-ups, diners and new restaurants galore. …
Jumping on the train at Victoria station I was desperate to get to Dalston to meet T. My day had been spent watching, participating and annotating along to presentation after presentation at work and by 7pm I was ready to have a huge meal and relax. As the peak hour rush spilled on to the …

I developed an insatiable craving for pulled pork that took over my mind, body and spirit. I had to do it. I had to track down The Ribman. Famous for his Holy Fuck sauce, I’d read about him on my food blog travels, and, well, it was a Sunday, the weather was beautiful and I was hungry. Behold: …
One thing I hate about Pinterest/Tumblr is that the original source for images is rarely cited. I had seen Michelle Robinson’s ‘Identifly’ paintings floating about for months but hadn’t connected the dots until I found her on Instagram. On Sunday she unveiled her newest work; ‘Neither One I Can Spare’, which she describes as … Continue reading »
A few weekends ago I was surprised with a belated Valentine’s trip to Oxford! It’s such a cute little place, and it was rad to get out of London for a few days. As far as weekend breaks go, we did the textbook: eating, drinking, walking, talking, which was followed by what I vaguely remember … Continue reading »

I’ve been 26 for 14 weeks now. – I’ve felt a huge shift in priorities; my family is all I think about. We’ve always been close but only recently have I realised each family members role in my life. My sisters have become my best friends. Good thing. – I don’t give a fuck about … Continue reading »
It had been 3 years since I’d been home! So much to do, so little time, and despite being there for a month I still didn’t get around to seeing everyone and basking in all of Melbourne’s glory. So what did I do? Well.. I sipped. Honorable mentions to: 95 Espresso, Main Street Cafe, Ferdydurke, … Continue reading »
