Spring Treats
Friday afternoon. Two night shifts knocked down, an hour of yoga and all the props for physical and mental awakening lined up, Izzie looks dubious but I'm having hopes for at least the kenyan coffee to work. Later on, me, Emma and her friend Simon managed to whisk
Roadtrip fail
It still baffels me that Gill now posseses a legitimate driving license /albeit after six failed exams/ and this was meant to be our first official road trip, allegedly first of many to come. In a wake of her personal reinvention as an aspiring masseus, Gill found and purchased a
Moving (on?)
..although not so far away from my beloved house on Cypress Road. I live now with a life coach / theatre designer Emma Wee (yes, that IS a real surname and yes, this is the right spelling), who's one day going to make a clean sweep of all the
Last Xmas
So I've (sort of) survived what was probably the last ever Christmas at Cypress Road 36. Past few years, since our relocation to England, we have been spending the festivities in a group of friends, soaked in sugar, spirits and grease from all that meat and fat indulgance,
Christmas Treat, Prague 2014
When going back home actually does feel like coming home, it's always down to people. Thanks to all the friends, who made this three days getaway special and made us forget for a bit about the carbs and sugar overload.
Bedsheet scare
So the annual xmas package from family arrived and as per every year, my grandmother sends a new addition to what is a growing collection of the most horrendous and generally hated bed cover sets ever. There's been a particularly heinous nautical print, where someone in the design
Sunday afternoon
Meeting in Haggerston for the afternoon of board games and banter, came too late as the newly opened Board Games Cafe was hopelessly full, but whilst wandering around we came across a cozy little coffee shop called By The Bridge. Americano, orange cake sneaky coconut macaroons, t-shirt not washed properly
Nightcrawler
So it's 3am, I'm at the office. The world seems a bit out of sync this early in the morning, but that's maybe due to the lack of sleep...of course I didn't fall asleep at 5pm. Who was I kidding? I
Halloween Shenanigans
01/11/14 So this year we only got around celebrating Halloween a day after and in a true decadent fashion via pumpkin feast indulgance. Only a day after Halloween and all I could get on Crystal Palace was one sad HALF of a pumpkin, but we carved it, mixed
Beyond the Mists
Another therapeutic London visit from Tereza, who's always been here and always will be, this time around (with our destiny strangely intertwined again = both fairly recently out of loooong term relationships), the therapy was mutual and it happened by the means of rosé wine, white chocolate, rushed breakfasts
On Friends
My friend Tereza came to London for a few days and we have spent beautiful Saturday afternoon by the pool in Brockwell Lido, having to disguise our bottle of fizzy wine to smuggle it in, lying on different flat surfaces in park, dipping in water whilst indulging in an endless
Se Mouiller
In many many years of these type of experiences, I grew to fully accept that when I am involved, even the simple things like meeting friends in park usually turn out to go completely pear-shaped. But I admit even after Klara being hit by a car last week on our
