A London Food and Travel blog full of unique experiences.

The Death of Queen Elizabeth II: The End of the Second Elizabethan Age

September 20, 2022

I honestly don’t know where to begin – or where this post will end – but I wanted to express a few emotions about the death of Queen Elizabeth II. My experiences and thoughts in this online journal of adventures through life.

6 of my Favourite Hotels in London

September 13, 2022

Coming to London soon & want to know where to stay? Knowing where to stay can make or break a trip to the capital city of England, so I wanted to share 6 of my favourite hotels in London.

Luxury Hotels in London Horseguards Hotel Adventures of a London Kiwi

We loved to occasionally book a cheeky staycation, usually something special to treat ourselves, or explore and area we haven’t spent time in lately. All of these are perfectly located for exploring London – from the beauty of Mayfair to the more contemporary East End of London – and all have great transport links.

Celebrating my 5-year Business Anniversary

August 24, 2022

This blog post is a little special. More than a little special – I’m celebrating my 5-year business anniversary. I genuinely never dreamed that I’d get this far, and thinking about it has me more than a little choked up. (The fact that I’ve been so busy with work that this post is technically two months late is neither here nor there…!)

I’ve been freelancing as a Social Media consultant for half a decade – HALF A DECADE – now. I’ve clicked and clacked my laptop keyboard as far away as New Zealand, and as close as my home office. I’m so proud to have worked with a gamut of businesses: tiny husband & wife businesses underlaid with passion through to multi-national corporate businesses.

The Best Pubs in London | Written By a Thirsty Londoner

August 7, 2022

Pubs. They’re great, aren’t they? London is great too. Put these together and what do we have? – the great London Pub. It’s practically an institution in British culture, and often becomes the extended lounge of busy Londoners. With that in mind, I thought my blog was lacking a list of the best pubs in London, so I roped in my local expert of hopped beverages. 

The Best Pubs in London Adventures of a London Kiwi I met my lovely husband in a London pub (read our story here), and so it was only natural to ask him to share his favourite pubs in London – the ones he disappears to when I’m busy with blogging fun! Take it away Mr Kiwi!

Running Away to the English Seaside | Margate Beach

July 1, 2022

Whenever I get the opportunity, I love running away to the English seaside [read: literally any sun-filled excuse] and recently we loved a day trip to Margate beach enough to go back a couple of weeks later, hiring a beachfront apartment for a leisurely three day break.

Margate Beach English Seaside

One of the things I miss the most about living in New Zealand, is the easy access to beaches. They (whoever ‘they’ are) reckons that no-one is more than 1.5 hours drive from a beach in my narrow home country, so when I was home recently, I made FULL use of that access.
