Some R&R in Richmond, Virginia

Some R&R in Richmond, Virginia

For the final leg of our journey, we packed up our suitcases and our Vegas hangovers and headed to the airport. For the last destination we were done with buses as we were headed east-side and although we prided ourselves on being troopers, busing it from coast to coast was a bit too ambitious. Two [...]

Sun-downers in San Diego

Sun-downers in San Diego

San Diego was a spontaneous move for us. We'd planned as far as L.A., Vegas and Virginia but struggled to know what to place in the middle. We'd hit week two of travelling and the long hours on buses and constant racing around new cities was slowly taking it out of us. San Diego seemed [...]

L.A. living – part one

L.A. living – part one

Our stay in Los Angeles started off in a way I will never forget. This had been the destination we had been most looking forward to.

3 days pottering in Portland

3 days pottering in Portland

Next stop on our American adventure was the weird and wonderful Portland. Following on from our stay in Seattle, we were a little bit more acclimatised to the different culture in America so were more able to relax as we toured the city. Nestled in the forests of Oregon, Portland is kind of an undiscovered [...]

Touring the Turner Prize 2016

Modern, contemporary art is not something I will ever claim to be an expert on, however it is something I enjoy exploring and observing. My interest in the subject was fuelled last month when my friend opened my eyes to the work of the Turner Prize. The award, housed by Tate Britain allows a selection [...]

Bjork bares her soul in the divisive Somerset House digital display

Bjork bares her soul in the divisive Somerset House digital display

I had the opportunity to visit the anticipated Bjork Digital exhibition at Somerset House last week and I can only describe the experience as peculiar. Admittedly, I had never heard of the Icelandic singer, and thus had absolutely no idea what to expect behind the doors of the beautiful venue. What I did find, however, was [...]
