Last week I was lucky enough to get hold of a couple of tickets to the screening of "I'm Here" by…read moreSpike Jonze, a 30 minute produced for Absolut Vodka (a client at my work). I'd seen a couple of snippets from the film and was excited to see the whole thing, particularly as it was being shown in Brewer Street mulit-storey car park of all places. We arrived early and although it was a bit shit to be kept outside in the rain it was well worth the wait, despite getting rather wet. As we entered we walked down a flight of stairs and through a door into a very 'non-carpark' looking space with a popping bubble wrap carpet. The free badges and drinks vouchers went down a treat and we began to congregate in front of the projected screen. It seemed that we were going to have to park our bums on the floor until a series of cardboard boxes began expanding with inflating air beds breaking out of them! So we got comfy and the film began. The film was about a robot/computer love story and it was really good. I'd love to know if it's going to be available for everyone to see soon but in the mean time check out the trailer below.

Went here for London Fashion Week 2016. Was very lucky to be invited. A good use of the space for…read morethe catwalk, and showrooms. On three levels, Level 1 for registration, press and buyers lounge, Level 2 for Designer Showrooms, ranging from Ready-to-Wear to accessories and bags, jewellery and footwear, and finally Level 3 for the actual catwalk shows, which is by invitation only, but can be watched live on the london fashion week website.

I found the London train's to be excellent and probably NYC could learn a thing or two. I was…read morestaying in Canary Wharf for five days. When conversing with the very nice employee here and he was explaining the zones he informed me that the majority of all travelers remain within Zone 1-2 on the Jubilee line. He also informed that the Westminster stop would be where a lot of the sights would be. Upon arrival, I noticed how clean the station was, I didn't see a garbage can in sight, but yet, I didn't one piece of garbage on the floor. All stops here have signage everywhere-- where to transfer, where to exit, some of the sights at that station, etc. what a huge help when you're in a city or country for the first time! They have an employee at the gate so you can ask questions and they are actually eager to assist without an attitude!

The thing about this station is that when you get off one of the lines it simply feels as if you…read moreare literally at the bottom of the pit. The reason for this is that I can basically see the escalators heading up to the sub-surface. That's probably because how they originally built this station, though ironically it seems as if this is the only deep level tube station they built this way. Still, I have to admit that it does happen to be pretty cool, especially when you come up from the deep level.

We enjoyed our week stay in Covent Garden. We took full advantage of the Covent Garden Market,…read morevisiting in several occasions. The Market is picturesque with lovely flower carts by the entrances. Historically, Covent Gardens were the gardens for the convent. Today, the beautiful enclosed market hosts various vendors that change regularly. The market is a great way to connect with locals. We went to the market four times during our visit. On Sundays, various art vendors set up and we visited with a local fossil dealer and purchased a couple fossils. We loved our dinner in one of the nearby cafes. On Mondays, antique dealers set up and sell various treasures. My husband bought me a vintage bracelet. We also watched a quintet play in the atrium. We found a few reasonably priced souvenirs to take home for gifts. Plenty of great restaurants surround the Market. We ate at several places and enjoyed our meals. The Market always seems to be new and people were friendly.

Think Rodeo Drive in London. It's a fun area to visit and check out all of the amazing offerings that most probably can never afford lol. Another must-see for hitting tourist areas in the West End.
