Spring is in the air judging from the multiple new additions at Sydney Taronga Zoo, but the centre stage belongs to the its baby elephant Luk Chai. So much so that Taronga’s entire website and merchandise had been rebranded to reflect his arrival. I admit there is is something gorgeous about watching a smaller version… Continue reading Spring is here, baby elephant and all

I heart Kings Cross
If there is one thing that I am missing quite badly after leaving London it is the lovely London Stitch N Bitch crew, and as I typed this one of their newsletter just popped into my inbox! I missed the lovely ladies, the weekly meet ups at all types of venues around London and finding… Continue reading I heart Kings Cross
We’ll be right back once the hours are aligned
So many photos to to upload and process, I can hardly believe that everything that happened, did took place. A little dazed about being back, nothing has changed aside from the addition of the new SmartGate at Sydney Airport. It was the first time that I used the gate, and as you needed the new… Continue reading We’ll be right back once the hours are aligned
Long days of summer
In the last few weeks I experienced some of the best summer days in this side of the world so far. Hardly a cloud in the sky for days at a time and I managed to get a tan while bumming around in the various parks scattered in central London. It’s amazing how much happier… Continue reading Long days of summer
A taste of London
Third week in London and all the moving around between different states of limbo made me forget about blogging. Take Taste Festival for example I went two weekends ago and barely had time to sit down and cull the photos let alone write about it properly. Strangely enough the weather remained sunny two weeks ago… Continue reading A taste of London

My legs are in pain from a dusk and nearly dawn I did last night, photos are coming, but in the meantime Jennifer Fallon’s latest blog entry made me smile. In between wincing in pain while… Continue reading Easter
Fly in the ointment
The last two weeks had been a little stressful in a completely unplanned way. It all started early last week when I received an email stating that the Home Office had changed the requirements for the tier 1 (general) visa. …tighten new criteria against which highly skilled migrants seeking entry to the United Kingdom are… Continue reading Fly in the ointment
Vivian and drowning in baked goods
Our kitchen is currently packed with enough freshly baked good to keep us carb happy for the rest of the week. My housemate is back to his baking frenzy and we currently have a small mountain made up of delicious rock cakes. After nearly losing a tooth and breaking my jaw in the process, my… Continue reading Vivian and drowning in baked goods
New Year fireworks finale
2009 opened with a bang for me. Definitely the best light show in Sydney in a long while and by pure miracle we managed to get a decent spot in Milsons Point without having to camp for the entire day. I remembered in previous years the fireworks were concentrated on a single location so unless… Continue reading New Year fireworks finale
This side of Christmas
It’s mental how busy life have been once the first week of December sneaked by. I have been taking photos, but just have not had the time to post anything eventhough a million different things happened in the interim. I’m currently waiting around for my flight to go to New York. Feeling a little confused… Continue reading This side of Christmas
