I can’t believe I’ve had this blog all this time and I haven’t posted anything under the Food category until now! I’m gluten-free and vegan and a total foodie, although uprooting my life and then being on lockdown have me posting less than I planned. I’ve got a gluten-free vegan guide to Barbados on my …
April went quite fast and at the same time lasted about seven weeks. We went from overnight curfew into full lockdown in Barbados, only permitted to leave the house to visit the doctor/pharmacy or petrol station. After a couple of weeks the supermarkets reopened.

With most of us around the world barely leaving our houses during this coronavirus pandemic lockdown, getting to the gym, studio, or outside for a workout has become impossible. While my friends in London are allowed to go out once a day for some exercise, creating an impromptu nation of joggers, here in Barbados we’ve …
What happens when you embark on long-term travel just before a global pandemic outbreak. This month’s update is not at all what I was expecting a few weeks ago. The plan was all laid out. It was put into motion months ago when I resigned from my job in London. After three months in Barbados …

Anyone who spends any length of time with me knows of my love for South Korean skincare products. I can’t stop raving about them.
