Lifestyle, Beauty And Everything In Between
It’s that time of year when we start to think about what we would like to find under the Christmas tree. As my sister put it recently on our family WhatsApp group, it’s time to start sharing our aspirations for under the tree of dreams. So here is my Christmas wish list, a mixed bag […]
Did you know that Eggnog originates in England? This festive feast, that is nowadays so synonymous with our cousins across the pond, does in fact owe its culinary heritage to this fair isle.

I’ve been on a bit of a journey for the past 8-10 months and it all started with my hair. If you’ve been following the blog for a while you’ll recall a hair post where I regale the trials and tribulations of having mixed race hair, and how I had gotten to manage it better […]
Aspiring blogger and globetrotter. That’s my strap line. If you have ever taken a peek at my Instagram, Twitter feed, Pinterest or even my blog, you will have read this comment. It’s true, I would love to blog for my supper and travel the world. Ironically though, and I’m not sure if I have ever […]
