(Image via CHANEL.com) On Tuesday 19th February news broke out that Karl Lagerfeld had passed away in Paris, aged 85.

This leads you to a big blue bright door that says Hugger […]
This week my friend and I had the pleasure visiting this newly established little restaurant hidden within the design/hipster side of Wan Chai. Hidden just off St Francis Street in Wan Chai, is FRANCIS – an intimate little restaurant bringing the best of Middle Eastern cuisine to the internationally diverse city that is Hong […]
A visit to Chengdu is not complete without a trip to see these adorable, lazy creatures we call pandas. Actually these pandas were really the only reason I wanted to go to Chengdu in the first place, and though this definitely isn’t the cheapest experience (volunteering – which actually is […]
