If you know me well, I’m sure you’ll have heard me boast about the City of Culture time and time again. Unfortunately I missed the whole year of events back in 2017, as I was living in Canada.

So this was a surprisingly memorable weekend that I will cherish forever. It wasn’t just about George passing out the first phase of the Royal Navy, although this was very cool to witness, it was also a weekend surrounded by family (Dad, Nanna, Auntie, Uncle and Cousins).

Lo and behold I found an article on the Hull Daily Mail website dedicated to poutine spots in Hull. The Old House was featured and I planned a visit immediately. Poutine – a Canadian dish of … More The Pursuit of Poutine
Back in February I went to France for a fun filled week of skiing, drinking and eating. It was probably one of the best skiing holidays I’ve had, apart from my Canadian ski trips (shush don’t tell anyone). I was 1 of 15 in the group, 5 of us drove and the lucky ones flew. … More Merry in Méribel
