When I was in Paris earlier in the year, I didn’t just eat macarons. I also ate a lot of cheese. And when I say I ate a lot of cheese, I don’t meant that I ate it every day, or had cheese courses at restaurants, or spent all my time in fromageries. I mean that, [...]

It’s been far too long since one of my Art Whisperer tours appeared on this blog. I think it’s time we took another wander through the corridors of Paris’ Louvre, don’t you? From an aesthetic point of view, I like how the clarity, precision, and permanence of this statue contrast with the blurred-in-motion crowd ascending [...]

Yesterday’s post was for Laura but today’s post is for Louise, as she (Louise) has just touched down in the city that stole my heart. I think the Dreamworks musical Anastasia said it best: Par-ee holds the key to your heart, And all of Par-ee plays a part. Just stroll two-by-two Down what we call “la [...]

We’re coming to the end of the Paris adventures now, folks. Saying that makes me sad, as I feel as though the trip is ending all over again. Thankfully I still have a few Italy posts up my sleeve, so on occasion I can close my eyes and pretend I’m back in the land where people [...]

Well lookee here! I’ve scrounged up a few more photos from travel days that have already been covered in some form or ‘nother on this blog. Plus, I’ve still got another Paris post and all of Italy to chat about, so we haven’t hit the bottom of the travel well yet. Hurrah!

Some of these, like peering with googly eyes around the Louvre, would likely be on every traveller’s list. Others, like savouring the fragile beauty of a Pierre Hermé creation [...]

It’s been a while since one of these Glimpses posts, so let’s skip the small talk and get cracking, shall we? (The Plane Boy story will have to wait a bit longer…)

After my Ispahan adventure on the 19th of March, I woke up on the morning of the 20th with my toe in very bad shape. I’m a little embarrassed to admit this, but I immediately called my mother in Australia (as opposed to my mother in, erm, Uzbekistan… yep). I told her I had to come [...]

After Paris and I discovered our undying love for each other (I’d like to think the feeling was mutual, anyway), several days passed in a blur of sightseeing, paparazzi-style-dog-photo-taking, eating, and lots and lots of walking. I visited the Eiffel Tower and while I didn’t climb it (yet), I did enjoy ice cream in its shadow. From there [...]

I am a tired munchkin tonight. I’m not a great sleeper at the best of times, and I think the combination of uncooperative bedding in my Florence hotel (I like to wrap my sheets around myself just-so, and these are too stiff to tuck in properly) and anxiety about going home this weekend are to [...]
