Being a thirty-something living the London life is equal measures incredible as it is overwhelming. This little space of the internet is my outlet for dealing with all that that lifestyle throws at me.
I write about food & drink, cooking, city guides, travel musings, London fun and random musings about my life. It should be known that I solely write for myself but if anything I share helps others along the way, then that’s just an added perk.
As founder of a brand marketing consultancy (hey, The Doers), my day-to-day can sometimes take over my ambitions to update this blog as regularly as I’d like, but if you’re missing me too much, you can find me every day over on Instagram.
Don’t be afraid to say hello! I love meeting new people.

Soup is the easiest recipe you could make and a great money-saver/winter-warmer to boot. Here’s a little guide to a basic soup recipe.
