Ahhh the benefits of a hop-on-hop-off bus pass, these tourist buses are brilliant and the even better thing about the ones here in Paris are that they are 2day passes!! Plus they have 4 different lines and over 50 stops! Its madness I tell ya! But oh so good.. The first day of this pass I used it to visit Notre Dame, this place seriously reminded me of a certain uni in Freo.. haha wonder why... Except its just a catherdral and not a university but still a seriously cool place... Spent a couple of hours wandering around here and also going to the crypts under Notre Dame as well as getting in my first lot of French shopping!! Oh how I wish I could have another suitcase!! HAD my first baguette in Paris too.. Not ... read more

Well Emma has now come and joined Team London so its been go go go as we explore the sights of London... once again! Firstly, before she arrived, Brad, Cal and myself set off at the crack of dawn (earlier for me cos I screwed up and set my alarm too early! oops!) to go to Oxford for the day to watch the Oxford boat races, the boys had been invited by their friend Christian and I tagged along hoping to meet some nice Oxford boys hehe...

Windsor Castle, place I had to visit and I must admit I was rather disappointed, this is supposed to be THE castle in England to visit so I was expecting alot more than I actually got.. Was still impressive but either Im just at the real ABC stage OR Ive seen better castles.. Not sure which.. Now ... read more

Its amazing how a change of scenary and location can lift your mood, being back here in London has provided a great sense of comfort, and although an hour later I realised why I didnt like it in the first place (WAYY to many people) its still very comforting being back in a place I've already gone and dont have to worry about finding my way around and all that shit again.. Even despite being back in my shoebox room! Exact same room I was in first time in London, although it seems much brighter now for some reason hehe.. It also provides me with company which Im loving, caught up with Moosh again today after a long sleep in, got my little suitcase of goodies back and got the pleasure of breaking into my suitcase ... read more
