Dream of travelling the world and post stories from destinations I actually make it to
It is no secret that there is just so much to see and do in London. I have been living here for almost 5 years now but that hasn’t stopped me from finding something new on a regular basis – it could be another historical building, a seasonal festival or …
“You must go there at sunset, it’s very romantic” I cringed. I cringe everytime I hear that word uttered for the benefit of couples. Why is it necessary for some thing to be romantic to be of interest to a couple, I ask? (As an extension to that, I always …
