If I had a British Accent I would never stop talking

Despite the rain London is a beautiful city and they speak English! I would love to work here for a year to really travel around Europe even just for the weekends.

On Wednesday we went to Brew round 2 (if you find something you like it’s OK to stick with it). Then set off to see the Tower Bridge, Borough Market and Kensington Palace!







Borough Market was amazing I wish I had access to that every weekend. The atmosphere was very relaxed. You can wander around and get food from all over the world. It was a Wednesday so it was funny to see people coming down from their office buildings to grab a quick bite.  


In the Evening we went to Madison a rooftop bar near St Paul’sCathedral. It had a beautiful view and we only dropped one glass of wine.



On our last day in London we ran around the city looking for Stamps for our Grandmother... no luck apparently this is the most popular stamp EVER. We went to four stamp collectors and a dozen post offices. Crazy...



Cheerio... Off to Greece!

Hello I live here


This week I took a long weekend and went to Montreal! Although the overall goal of the trip was to help my sister move from one apartment to another it was so much more. The weather was gorgeous. After the move, which was a pretty early morning after going out the night before, we went to the Atwater Market and on a walk through Mount Royal. Despite the fact that I lived in Montreal when I was young and have been there countless times since, there was something about this trip that was different. I attribute it to the weather and my beautiful family. My new obsession with gardening is evident in my pictures below. 

Just like Carrie walking into Heaven on Fifth I took a deep and breath and echoed, "Hello, I live here".

Re-found love for this beautiful city. I highly recommend Montreal in the summer so much to do (and there are no mosquitos)!
