Printing photos with Cheerz
Back in the 1990s and early 2000s printing photos was always such an important thing for me. I’d get a disposable camera for the day trip / night out / etc. and then bring it to the shop to have the film developed and pictures printed as soon as I possible so I can see … Continue reading

A stroll along Gooseberry Island and Horseneck Beach
One of the benefits of growing up along the New England coast is always being near a beach.

Exploring Marrakech
When Jeff and I first chose to visit Marrakech I wasn’t sure what to expect. Some people sang praises about how wonderful the city is, some cursed about the lack of alcohol and bars, and some said the shopping is good, but you don’t need more than a few days there.

Parading about Portsmouth
Portsmouth is one of my favourite places in England, and recently Jeff and I made an excuse to get out of London and visit some of his family there. I always love when we go – and not just because his family is wonderful! – because I love the scenery. And I don’t mean the Spinnaker Tower or … Continue reading
