When I wrote my first “Hometown Tourist” post back in February I had the intention of making them a semi regular thing. Since then however, a lot has changed. Namely, Sunday’s in central have become rarer and shorter, more afternoons than days as they were. That and with two of my best friends who regularly used to visit having new jobs, houses and so on trips to do touristy bits with someone who won’t judge me for taking too many photos…

Hometown Tourist – #1 – London Eye & Camden || Travel
Read moreWhile spending the day acting like a tourist around London not this weekend but last weekend, it occurred to me that I go on so many day long adventures around the city and, unless I go out with the intention of creating content, I seeming get snap happy without any purpose. I also love reading peoples “24 hours in” travel posts. So I thought why not combine them and do a series of blog posts about when I decide to spend a day…

Chiswick House & Gardens || Photo Diary
Read moreYou know how a few weeks ago, I mentioned going on a rather lovely but detoured walk along The Thames? Well, turns out the original route was intended to take a trip through Chiswick House & Gardens, a neo-Palladian villa set in gorgeous historic gardens. So, while the sun was shining and I was at a loose end this Sunday, I decided to pay a visit. Obviously, I took my camera along and got a little snap happy.. As I was pretty happy…

Hammersmith To Chiswick Thames Walk || Photo Diary
Read moreAs I mentioned a few days ago on my 5 happy things post, last Sunday I spent the day making a nine mile walk from Hammersmith to Chiswick taking the scenic route along the Thames. To be fair, it wasn’t intended to be that long. I took a wrong turning following the river and added three miles to the journey. I took along my camera and ended up getting a lot more snaps than intended. So, I thought I’d share…
