Back in November Jeff and I went to Rio, and on our first day we headed to the Botanical Gardens. Here’s a picture diary from the day… Continue reading

Travel Diary: Day 1 in Berlin
Berlin is one of those places I just keep finding myself. I seem to go every couple of years to see friends, stay in their homes and see the parts of the city they most want to share with me. And while that’s one of my favourite ways to travel, there is something exciting about exploring … Continue reading
Exploring Paris
It feels like ages ago now that I was in Paris, but I’ve finally got around to going through all the pictures I took (I know – I can’t believe it took me this long, either!) and I’m actually pretty pleased with what I captured. And so, outside of all the beauty shopping, here’s what Jeff … Continue reading
I’m back from my blogging break!
Why, hello there! It’s been a while. Did you change your hair? It looks great. For the past month I’ve taken an active break from blogging, spending my time travelling in the UK and USA for pleasure and Europe for work, focusing on family and friends and just relaxing in my spare time. It was … Continue reading
Shopping in Marrakech
I’m not normally a shopper, but give me a market and the green light to haggle and I’m like a kid in a candy store! Except in Morocco it was leather goods, jewellery and argan oil – which are much more up my alley, anyway. Here’s what I bought in the souks of Marrakech… Continue reading
What I Wore: Festival Fashion, Glastonbury Edition
For my very fist festival I decided to go right to the deep end: Glastonbury. With over 50 stages and what felt like thousands of acts, Jeff and I packed up our gear (he’s a festival veteran now – 2014 was his fourth Glastonbury!) and headed out to Worthy Farm to camp out for 6 … Continue reading
Down the rabbit hole: Katie’s adventures at Glastonbury Festival
Going to Glastonbury Festival felt like falling through the rabbit hole and landing in a magical wonderland waiting for guests to discover all of its secrets. Once you’re through the ticket gates, the adventure begins… Continue reading
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. I’d heard about the thé à la menthe, leather goods, … Continue reading
What I wore: holiday in Morocco
When I was getting ready to go to Morocco I wanted to know what other female tourists wore when they visited the country. But every blog post I found on the topic either featured someone wearing something that showed her knees and shoulders (which I didn’t feel comfortable with because I didn’t want to stand out … Continue reading
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
