EDIT September 8, 2022 – Surreal to be in Buckingham Palace to write this blog post, then watch the news unfold of the Queen’s passing in the afternoon. To be standing in the Blue Drawing Room hours before King Charles III gave his speech is a surreal and momentous part of history. I am grateful to the Royal Collection Trust for this opportunity…
Maggie’s Club London is back with a bang, after undergoing a facelift while it was closed during the pandemic and it’s totally rad! ‘Video didn’t kill the radio star’ at this 1980’s retro nightclub which is located in the heart of Chelsea.
‘Girls Just Wanna Have Fun’, so after a day of birthday celebrations…
The Art of Banksy, is the world’s largest exhibition of privately owned Banksy artwork being showcased in a huge warehouse space in Covent Garden, London.

The O2 is a large entertainment district located right next to the river Thames on the…
Afternoon tea is a quintessential English tradition of sitting down around 4pm for an afternoon treat of tea, sandwiches, scones, and cake. The taking of afternoon tea was introduced in England by Anna, the seventh Duchess of Bedford, in 1840. The Duchess would become hungry around four o’clock in the afternoon since her evening meal was served around eight o’clock, leaving…
I have finally finished my 14 days of self-isolation after arriving from the USA, and I was gagging to hit the streets of London (safely of course). I was excited for our first real date in SIX MONTHS and planned to visit Cahoots in London for some ‘tipples and treats.’ Cahoots is a 1940’s themed pub hidden underground beneath the…
We did it! We’re currently living in London! Not permanently, the plan is to live in London until the end of the year.
We’ve been talking about this for precisely 147 days since we were all forced into an endless staycation. Like most other people, in March we cleared our calendar, canceled holidays, and held out hope for summer to happen…
