Book Review: Love London by Barbara Chandler

September 3, 2011

It’s a hot September Saturday in the “capital of the world” and in just a few days, I’ll be bidding farewell and boarding a plane back stateside. Every time I leave London, a little piece of my heart breaks. I love and loathe this place like an ex-boyfriend that will forever haunt me in my […]

Photo of the Day: Passion In The London Underground (Part 1)

August 25, 2011

Waiting for the very last train home after a night on the town, the quiet underbellies of Westminster Station had never looked so beautiful.

London Life: A Walk in the Park

July 13, 2011

Septembers were my favourite. The walk home from work took an hour and required a diagonal cut through Hyde Park. Belgravia to Notting Hill. Autumn had never felt more grande than during that evening as I looked down the long lane of tall maples that hugged Park Lane. The crispy crunch of red orange leaves […]
