Forget Paris

Recently, I planned a trip to Paris.

I was very excited, and this was finally my chance...

To be free, to explore, to get out of my comfort zone, to see the world - which is a major dream of mine.

But circumstances occurred meaning I had to cancel my trip the day before. You can imagine my disappointment!

But I say... Forget Paris! You can have a piece of Paris in your own city. You can explore, you can meet yourself (not find yourself -- we'll get to that later), you can be perfectly content despite your circumstances. Besides, Paris is still there! And we shall meet one day.

I'll share my little piece of Paris -- in London with you:
















It also reminds me of  the quote "Wherever you go... there you are". So make the most of who you are, where you are!



Everyman







I saw a great play the other day. Let me tell you about it...
It was called Everyman, and it featured the terrific actor Chiwetel Ejiofor.
After seeing him in the phenomenal "Twelve Years A Slave", I relished the thought of seeing him in the flesh!
He didn't disappoint.

A passionate performance based on the 15th century "morality play" which represents all mankind and the account we must give at the end of our lives, alone.

Transformed by Carol Anne Duffy, the play takes on a poetic edge, with a modern and comedic twist.

Highly recommended!
