Don't mess with Texas!










James Turells Skyspace, at Rice University





The most scrumptious, moorish food!


A cactus light, that I NEED!!



So I'm back on the blog!
Just got back from my trip to Houston, Texas. Hopefully this is the first of many new adventures across America

The weather was glorious and after months of -20'C and intense snow! It was greatly welcomed, I got to wear my sandals and sunglasses.
Everyone was very friendly, they all had that 'southern charm', I could get really used to that lifestyle!

My week was mostly made up of drinking tequila based cocktails and eating amazing food, everything is bigger in Texas, including myself if I stayed any longer!

My favourite part was watching the sunset at the James Turell light installation at Rice University, the most relaxed I've ever been!

I'll definitely be back, totally worth another trip :-)

My only regret, not purchasing some cowboy boots.....

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!
