A summer 2017 reading list Oh what an autumnal day here in London! Is anyone just feeling like curling up and eating comfort food on the sofa all of this week!? I haven’t put together a reading list for a while (here are the first and second ones I did) and so thought this was pretty perfect timing for it.…
Porto, I love you! Editing my photos just now made me remember how stunning this city is. It was hard to find a bad view. At the end of April I booked flights to Porto for Alex’s birthday for 3 nights. Portugal is somewhere I’ve wanted to visit for a while, mainly because I am obsessed with patterned tiles (!), and it did not disappoint. …
