  1. Lady in Bordeaux

    Blog: A Lady in London - 28 September 2010

    I never thought Bordeaux would be such a big city. Every time I pictured it in my mind, I imagined rolling hills with green grape vines and crumbling chateaux.

  6. Lady in Heaven

    Blog: A Lady in London - 1 February 2010

    I love to travel. I love to eat. Anyone who has read more than a few posts of this blog will have noticed that my main obsessions in life are food and travel. Anything that combines those two is my own personal heaven on earth (note the Jesus statue).
