An Ode To My Life’s Marches!

Here’s my tribute to March and the role it’s played in my life over the last decade. Here’s to endings and new beginnings.

The Subtle Art Of Blending

Ayutthaya: For When You Just Need A Stroll Through History

A guide to Ayutthaya: If you have one day to spare, and approximately THB 20, you can be well on your way to experiencing this UNESCO World Heritage Site for yourself.

We Live In Trump’s World Now

A few weeks ago I had a run in with an middle-aged American man. I haven’t had any confrontation with anyone here since I moved hear nearly 2 years ago. While there’s always a bit of subtle racism going on in this country, I’ve never felt like I don’t belong here. It is why this…

Views From A Concrete Tower

Sometimes I like to imagine that it’s crisp and sweater-weather like outside. Pollution? What pollution? View this post on Instagram A hazy Bangkok Friday! #thailand #bangkok #skyline #smog A post shared by AL (@cupitonians) on Feb 9, 2017 at 6:27pm PST

Real-Time Adventures

Will we ever be able to holiday somewhere without immediately googling how to move there?

I met Adam half a year after he turned 30. This year, he turns 40 and I wanted to do something special to celebrate. After all, this is a person who followed me all over the world. He has done and continues to do whatever it takes to make us work - including working hell jobs, doing without, writing endless plant descriptions - literally, whatever it takes. Sure, he will whine about it at first. It's the British in him. But, at the end of the day, he has always put his money where his mouth is and done the work. And so, this was my gift to him - an all-expenses paid holiday to somewhere warm, historic, indulgent and so perfect for him. In return, I got to eat a gelato everyday and swim in the crystal clear waters of the Dalmatian region of Croatia. Oh, how I suffer for him! 😅

I've never seen anything quite like last night's concert. We saw @mitskileaks in the middle of winter in Cologne in one of the smallest studios. We were easily the youngest and considered weirdo stans cause we knew the lyrics to all the songs from the new album. Cut to this concert 3.5 years later and we're one of the oldest people in a crowd of super stans who knew every single lyric! It was a very 🤯🤯🤯 moment. What a night!

Northern Ireland was so unbelievably stunning and otherworldly, I immediately insisted we either move here or come back for a long road trip. No points for guessing which Adam picked 🥲

📍 Belfast, Northern Ireland - because this city deserves it's own love letter!

One of my favourite parts of coming out of the pandemic AND moving to this part of the world is being able to listen to live music again. What's given my Renaissance era that extra kick is how beautiful (and in tune) British audiences are! Here's a clip of our evening with @thenational at Belfast Botanic Gardens.

After 2+ years of a pandemic and moving 2+ countries, finally got to see @unrealaltj in their home arena. What an experience!

Can't have a rare sunny bank holiday without a trip to the beach! Beach hopping with @wonderingreverie and @joeoreynolds was so much fun! (Sorry we shamelessly crashed your birthday weekend!)

Leg 2 of our Great Norfolk Tour painstakingly curated for us by @wonderingreverie. Special mention to @joeoreynolds who went out of his way to get us that beautiful photo op with a field full of blooms!
