Cholesterol Haters Look away now

One of my all time favourite ways to spend a Saturday morning in Shoreditch is to take a little stroll across to Hoxton Square and (on a good day) avoid the queue's to get into the Breakfast Club.

This place is heaven sent. Enjoy freshly squeezed apple juice with fresh mint and luxuriate over a delicious Soy Latte while waiting for stacks of pancakes crowned with lashings of bacon. Not much can top this - especially when the Canadian maple syrup supplied as freely as tap water.

Cambridge - Can I come?

Took a drive outside the city to the England that I live in and rarely explore. Managed to make it to Cambridge University grounds long enough to get very jealous indeed.
What a wonderful place to study - im not sure you could help but study hard if you got the opportunity to spend time here. I spent some time watching the punting down the river. Quite enjoyable I must say.
I guess we never know - perhaps one day Ill get to study here amongst the dusty books in the old library.

The Hills were alive with the sound of music

Austria!
Have a good friend who grew up in Vienna and we did a quick trip to her world for a change.
Had a great trip - such a beautiful country - has a lot to offer.
Wowzaaaaaaa

Landed in Salzburg hired a car. stayed in the mountains for a couple of days and then did a roadtrip to Vienna to catch up with the happenings in the UN. 



Went to see the Kaizer castles along the route. In other news: im grumpy at breakfast time.
No surprise there.

Briste Geara

Amazingly I got the opportunity to spend a luxurious 3 weeks with a soul mate re exploring islands of greece..,
well well well my goodness.
what a beauty!

Began in Rhodes staying in the Pink Elephant ! I would recommend to all , we immediately and eternally fell in love with the place... with its curious courtyard and windswept rooftop terrace. I couldnt imagine a better place to indulge in my dearest book : Shantaram. Wow!!!

From here we did 7 islands with just one carrier bag of stuff! Maria @ the Pink Elephant was kind enough to mind our bags as we rid ourselves of the shackles of responsibility.
The greek islands have so many stories to tell and there is nowhere I enjoy smoking down a box of cigarettes than on the patio of a greek islands hostel. Meeting random island people like the 3 brothers, or the shaman from Arizona.
some of the beauty was breathtaking really. i hope i never forget the freedom of diving into the blue waters. I will hold this trip close in my heart forever.





Portugese Wedding

A good friend decided to tie the knot and in doing so lured me down to the Algarve to celebrate the event. A lot of fun, so much so that apparently I did not take many photos?

Getting married on a beach like this ---- wow
I'm wishing them both the best of luck. They were a match that was not made on this earth.

What is it I am doing with my Life Again?

We all have goals , at least we all should have goals.
Its necessary to re-evaluate these goals from time to time, get some prioritization in place.
Some of us fight so hard for something that drains us of everything we possess. Never forget that material possessions will only get you so far. They can never enrich your soul.

Thoughts like this floated into my head when I spotted this poor fellow. Talk about a picture telling a million words.

Someone needs to reevaluate their lives.

Coctails at Glade...

Not to be sniffed at... This place does not Mess around. Get involved -- Just off Regents Street.
Good place to go if you are in the middle of an argument with a friend. Very little cannot be resolved once the bartender starts adding rose petals to your drink.
