So decided to go to New York for Halloween since I've been for Summer, 4th of July and Christmas!!! Now only thing left is to go during Thanksgiving.... This time I decided to spend as much time with Leyla, who lives in New York, as I could to see other parts of New York I hadn't seen before and also see Ingerith, who lives in London but I don't get to see her often in London. First off we went to Downtown Brooklyn to see the bridge and area and also to take some jumping shots. It was quite different, more [View Full Entry]

So me, Cutes, Vix, Dania, Renee & Heather went to Albufeira, Portugal where is was hot, beautiful and fun!!! I'd never been to Portugal before, but it nice to go to where Dania was from (well, she's from Lisbon)... and to eat nice fresh sardines everyday, and I mean everyday!!! Anyway we spent 25% of the time on the beach relaxing and soaking up the sun... We spent 40% at the clubs dancing the night away and having more fun... and the other 35% was spent going around town and doing safari's and sightseeing! The funniest thing on holiday was seeing [View Full Entry]

Took a trip to Lord's Cricket Grounds with my team from work. I seriously wasn't going to go because I am not interested in cricket! I couldn't even give you a name of a player if I wanted to, but I thought I would check it out to see what the fuss was about. I guess having worked for an Architect's Firm for nearly 5 years, I have started appreciating buildings and details more, and I have to say, I quite enjoyed the tour and wouldn't of minded watching a game just to see!!! Maybe one day, but I won't be [View Full Entry]

If anyone knows me properly, they know that Philippines is a place I love to go and spend good quality time with my family... especially my Grandmother... I could go on talking for days about my family and how I feel about being there with the people I love, the people who raised me when I was a baby upto 4 years old, the place where my mother was born! I was in Philippines during Christmas & New Year's just gone, and it was one of the best times I've had in my life!!! So I came back this time during [View Full Entry]

We arrived in NYC and we stayed as Desiree’s house! Diva and Gem (Dez’ dogs) were there to greet us as was Dez’ parents and Lizelle.

Hadn’t been to Philippines in 5 years and I was really excited to be going back to see the family and especially my Grandmother! I was flying out on Christmas Day, but luckily, my flight wasn’t until the early evening so I had Christmas Lunch with Vicky and her family! My sister flew out the day before, so she arrived in Philippines on Christmas Day, but luckily Christine and her family (from London) were already in Philippines and they picked her up from the airport and she spent Christmas with them. So, my time to fly and Vix took me to [View Full Entry]

Christmas was coming up, so Vicks & I decided to go do some shopping in New York. Cutes was meeting us a few days later. Our first day was spent mostly shopping especially in FOREVER 21. We had bags full leaving the shop!!! That night we were going to Atlantic City with Bobby and Dez and we were staying at Borgata Hotel which was very nice. The hotel room was massive with a big massive bathroom with a tub that could fit two or more people in!!! The toilet even had a phone!!! We ordered room service (I had steak and [View Full Entry]

So my work needed an architectural model bought over to Abu Dhabi, and the cheapest way I found was for someone to fly over there! I joked with my boss and said that I would go and he said yes straight away, so that was that!!! So the flight, hotel and expenses were sorted!!! So I get to Heathrow Airport really early and I go to check in and of course they are asking about the model and who packed it and I'm so worried because it had been packed already and to unpack it and pack it again would be [View Full Entry]

I’ve been wanting to go to Paphos since last summer so when Jill invited me to go to her wedding there, I couldn’t refuse! When I got to Paphos is was early evening but it was very humid! I hadn’t gone with anyone but I was meeting my new roommates at the hotel, Paphos Garden Hotel & Apartments, which Jill’s sister arranged. There were 3 of Jill’s friends who were also attending the wedding! They were all great and all very different so it was a good bunch! The best person I met that night was baby Josh, Jill’s nephew who [View Full Entry]

Decided to go to Paris with Vix for a weekend of shopping, eating and sightseeing. We arrived in Paris in the early evening and from the airport we cook a coach to central Paris where we then took a taxi to our hotel. It was only around 9pm, so we decided to go out and get something to eat and also walk about Paris for a bit. It was pretty wet when we first arrived in Paris, but when we were walking, it turned out to be pretty nice. The shops were all closed, but that was a good thing!!! [View Full Entry]
