Tivoli Gardens the famous amusement park in central Copenhagen has been ‘amusing’ people since 1843 – not a bad run considering rollercoasters were only invented in 1885! And while I would hope they have replaced the wheels since then, I loved the olden day feel of the Gardens, in particular their grand entrance lit up […]
Starting Your Own Business – Is It Really As Scary As You Think?
December 6, 2011 by 8 Comments
Starting your own business is no small feat. It takes guts, drive, a lot of hours and most of all, belief. But is it really as ‘untouchable’ and as scary as most people think? I think business can be pain-free and relatively straight forward if you have all the tools you need to get from […]
Photo Of The Week – A Very Grand Central Terminal
December 2, 2011 by 5 Comments
I love New York for it’s Art Deco design mixed with the unusual and unexpected – which is exactly what I found Grand Central Terminal to be. I loved the aquamarine ceiling swirled with romantic astronomy details and fairy lights dotted in amongst them. It certainly is one of the grandest places to be seen […]
Is Starting Your Own Business A Good Idea In A Recession?
November 29, 2011 by 3 Comments
All you seem to hear at the moment when you switch on the TV or pick up a paper is that the world is in financial ruin – more people than ever seem to be unemployed and it doesn’t look like it’s getting better anytime soon. Surely this is not the time to be setting […]

I visited the north of England a couple of weeks ago and I forgot how beautiful the countryside here could be – especially since I’m not often walking along country laneways – it’s more cobbled streets here in London! I loved the dreaminess of this particular day – the way the shadows and sunlight […]

Who doesn’t love Christmas? I mean, as if a big fat guy dressed in a red furry suit who brings you presents isn’t enough, but we also get to shop, eat and drink to our hearts content and not feel one bit guilty about it – after all, it’s the holidays! Growing up in Australia […]

Right now is about the time of year that I start to pine for some Melbourne sun – especially the rooftop bar kind! The number of open air drinking haunts seems to double every time I go back home, which is no surprise considering it’s a gorgeous city in the summer months – hopefully it […]
Month 9 Blog Update
November 17, 2011 by 4 Comments
I can’t believe a) It’s nearly Christmas, and b) I’m at my 9 month anniversary already! I feel like it’s been a good month, even though I’m not finding enough time to do things like regular link building and reading other blogs, but I’m just trying to tread water while the next few busy months […]

Earlier this week I was lucky enough to visit Lund in Sweden for work – I never knew much about the city, but I was pleasantly surprised to find it was a haven for Gothic architecture – it seemed everywhere I went there was a huge mental asylum-looking building looming over me! This Church was […]
