Places || Food & Drink

 PLACES || Camden Town, London. An all round amazing place to go. There is a tonne to do no matter what you like. Camden market and stables market are amazing places to visit. Its not your usual market, its quirky and has an amazing atmosphere no matter the weather. There are also a lot of stalls with street food. Yum! Regents park is a few minutes walk away. Lovely place to go. There is also Camden lock, where you can go on gondolas and imagine you're in Venice, Italy! That's just to name a few things. Always street entertainment, clubs and pubs, not to mention a vast variety of restaurants and eateries.

FOOD  & DRINK || Hache. This is a burger place. Lovely place to go, has 'mood lighting' and presentation and service is great. Food tastes great. Atmosphere is lovely, however, the lighting may not be perfect for everyone. I called it 'mood' lighting because it was the polite way of saying its quite dark. I found that I had to use the torch on my phone to look at the menu! Other than that its a lovely little place.
Samba Swirl.  A frozen yoghurt place that also does shakes and crepes. Perfect for desert. It's a nice place to take someone on a first date instead of coffee! It's different. Self service. Nice decor. Simple. The guy who served us was extremely friendly and catered to our needs. Tweaked the menu for us (if you want to swap ingredients in a milkshake or crepe).
You get to try before you buy. It is a pay by weight place which is good. You can add any chocolate, sweets, nuts, sprinkles, etc. Check out their website. There are 4 branches, currently all in London at the moment. Try it out!

Any recommendations of where else is good to visit? Let me know!


Until next time,

Embracing life in 3 weeks!

Three weeks!!! How time flies.

It has already been three weeks since I first started this blog. To be honest I have done far better than I would have expected. 

I have accomplished more than I would have done usually. The blog has motivated me to actually go out and LIVE! To do things I want to do but didn't/couldn't previously. I made time! Simple things can make one happy. 

So far I have ventured out, cooked items I wanted that I hadn't done before, exercised, ate healthy (majority of the time), walked a lot, found places I hadn't realised existed in London, watched Wimbledon and the football World Cup in nice bars, casinos, outdoor venues, I just packed a whole lot in and am loving it. (Pictures are snippets of what I've done) 

I started the blog to have a fresh start, almost as a journal. Keep myself motivated and de-stress. It most certainly has served that purpose and more. I have a new found hobby. I have so many ideas about what I would love to write about. Now not only do I need to live life but I also need to find that much extra time to dedicate an extra few moments to this blog too. Time management! (Look out for an up coming post on that)

Now when I say I have packed a lot in, it is a lot for me. I really wanted to get a healthy lifestyle going on. I'm not one for dieting. I like exercising and eating whatever I like (in moderation plus adding in healthy snacks on the side). I didn't manage to completely follow my routine, however the days I didn't exercise I still kept active, walked a lot, house cleaning etc. Again, I will have a post up on how to incorporate healthy foods into your normal routine so you don't have to 'diet'. 

Moral of blog post: if you want to do something in life, whether it be big or small, go out and do it. Make it happen. There is always a way. Embrace life. Be happy!
