When researching where to eat in Singapore, we asked friends who are frequent travellers to the country for recommendations, read blogs and watched YouTube videos. We spent seven nights in Singapore and had pre-booked five restaurants, leaving room for ones we might stumble across. There is an incredible restaurant scene…
The Omni Collective in Peckham is a modern, international plant-based restaurant serving seasonal sharing plates. Omni, as it’s more commonly known, is the passion-project of chef-restaurateurs George Matheou and Jess McGill. This was an invite but my review is 100% honest. I invited my friend Kaye to join me and…
Palermo is the capital of Sicily and the gateway to the Egadi islands, including the largest, Favignana. It’s also where you fly to the islands of Lampedusa and Pantelleria, both of which are close to Africa. Other amazing places in Sicily to visit, which are close to Palermo, are Castellammare…

Puglia is the region that sits in the ‘heel’ of Italy and is affectionately called the ‘breadbasket’ because it’s one of the top producers of durum wheat. It’s a more affordable Italian holiday than regions in the north, such as Tuscany or Veneto. It’s also quite diverse with its beautiful…

Christmas is one of the busiest (if not THE busiest) time of the year for businesses. This year, instead of buying exclusively from big brands, why not look to support small UK businesses and your local independent shops? I’ve rounded up a list of small UK businesses selling beautiful products…
Malta is a country, made up of five islands, that sits between Sicily and North Africa. It has a fascinating (and turbulent) history because of its strategic position. The five islands are Malta, Gozo, Comino and the uninhabited Kemmunett (Comminotto) and Filfla. Malta is VERY old! Apparently there are archaeological…

This month we found ourselves having to spend most of our annual two week holiday in lockdown. Where we would normally be away, exploring a new city or enjoying revisiting one, wining and dining and having fun, instead we found ourselves being confined to wherever we could feasibly walk to.…
Imagine a small Italian island where you can easily cycle from beach to beach and the beaches have the most incredible water you’ve ever seen, with different hues of blue sparkling in the sunshine…. That’s Favignana! Favignana is the largest of the three Egadi islands, off the west coast of…
I’ve deliberately not called these ‘resolutions’ because that means you’ve made a decision to do (or not do) something – and I personally find that hard to stick to as there’s not much flexibility. So I’m calling them goals instead because that implies something to work towards and will be…
Whenever I mention ‘Edmonton’, most people think I’m talking about North London. Nope, I’m talking about Canada! Although ironically it is actually named after its London counterpart.
