Another bad selfie, with my manager Michelle! Excuse the face, this is woman who hasn't slept for days!!

Rockin a hard hat!
It's finally open :-)
I finally have an actual workplace, instead of a hotel! And it's all mine, we'll sort of! 
I got to play project manager for a bit too,

Also it's October and it's weirdly still sunny and warm, I thought I'd show you some of the culinary delights I've been sampling throughout the month, my favourite being the Oreo flavoured
frozen yoghurt, yum :-) 
Maggianos Italian opened near my store and invited us for a free meal, obviously we said YES!!

Back to the Big Apple







Hey there, I thought I'd share some photos with you of my recent trip to New York, I was so glad to be back, even though it was a really quick visit! I love is city so much, it holds a little place in my heart, this time I was there, I took the subway to Exchange Place in New Jersey and was able to take in the epic view of the New World Trade Centre, note in the 4th picture to the left, there is what looks like a man sitting down, is actually a sculpture of a fire fighter mourning, it's quite an emotional place!
Whilst driving out of the city, I managed to take a snap of the empire state building, the next time I'll be here, will be Christmas time, can't wait :-)


So happy to be back, relaxing in my new home!

The First Official USA Flag



Rooftop Pool and Cocktails 



Sorry I've not been on here lately, I just moved into a new apartment, yay! And I'm being a busy bee with work! 

It's been a crazy busy week, with exploring national mall and enjoying rooftop cocktails......yawn, so dull :-)
My work put together a scavenger hunt across DCs cultural district, collecting clues across its Smithsonian museums and sculpture gardens, 
The Hirshorn Museum was my favourite, as I got to see the very cool Barbara Kruger exhibit, 
We also went to see the famous star spangled banner at the American history museum and one of the original American flags! 

I finished the day off with cocktails....poolside I may add! How very cushy of me, lol! What a way to round off my week,

Seeya soon....
