Wake Up In The Morning Feeling Like P Diddy

We did it again…picniced outside the Wireless Festival. A little Ke$ha on a Saturday afternoon never hurt anyone.

Rocking Out To Rod Stewart

This past weekend there was a music festival in Hyde Park called Hard Rock Calling. We didn’t get tickets but we sat outside the fenced area and enjoyed his music!  We cheated but I bet after you read this you will to because next weekend is the Barclays Wireless festival where you can do the [...]

NOLA

Well we survived our first Bachelorette party in New Orleans…..barely. 24 hour bars, restaurants handing out to-go cups, flavored daiquiris, beads and balconies. That’s all I can say. 

A Taste Of Spain – London

Bryant Park during lunch hour. That’s only a little taste of my vacation.  1 week left until I’m back in London. [...]

Engagement Trumps Birthdays

The first 24 hours in NYC were epic. It started out at dinner with Jon to celebrate my birthday and our anniversary and ended with a Saturday brunch with the besties celebrating our engagement.

Yelp! Event: AvoHotel

Sara was invited to a Yelp! event on Monday and asked me to join her so we headed to Dalston to check out a new boutique hotel. Avo Hotel is located on a main street but seemed to be in a residential area. It is family run and was actually the family’s house before they turned it [...]

Florence, Italy: 6 Years Later

I have been putting off this post because there is so much to say I’m not sure how to say it all and not bore my readers. I think I’ve come to the conclusion that this weekend will have to be broken up into several posts.  Hope you enjoy them! I studied abroad in Florence [...]
