The Londoner Travels North
I’d like to think that Yarm, a small Town in the North East of England is my northern home in the UK. Every Londoner needs a getaway location, away from the craziness of the city to escape to every now and then, to enjoy the peace, tranquility and the beauty of the British countryside with family […]
Milan Part 2
The second time I visited Milan, I stayed with my friend Clara, who is founder of Gourmode. ‘A chic girl with a huge appetite’ I knew that spending a weekend with her, I was in for an adventure around Milan. We had a whole weekend of planed things to do, including dinner in a shop […]
Photography and Cocktails
On a typical day back in my hometown, I like seeing friends over food, drinks and/or shopping and going to a gallery. It’s even better if I manage all of this in one day. I met Paula for brunch in Soho and we went to Jackson and Rye in Soho. I’ve been meaning to go […]

Today Imke and I went to Twinkie Breakfast in the 2nd arrondissement. We treated ourselves to a full American brunch, although you have the choice of […]
Simply Black
As my time in Paris is coming close to an end, I have more free time on my hands to work on some style posts for my blog. Interested in fashion, I’ve had my eyes on the well-dressed Parisian ladies in cafés, shops and the streets. I took my own take on their classic and […]
Winter in Paris
Aimilia couldn’t have come to Paris on a better weekend. I had parties and dinners planned and my area even welcomed her with music, dancers and fake snow. Saint Germain des Neiges, Fête du Ski et de la neige was a four day street event organized by France Montagnes. The organization is an association of […]
