A Visit to MoMA, New York City

The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City is one of the largest and most influential modern art museums in the world. There were two pieces I was really excited to see in the flesh: Water Lilies by Claude Monet and The Starry Night by Vincent van Gogh.  I worked my way slowly through the gallery, stopping to look at any pieces that grabbed my attention on … Continue reading A Visit to MoMA, New York City

Vegan Brunch in Melbourne: Matcha Mylk Bar, St Kilda

If you’d told me a year ago that I’d wait 30+ minutes for brunch at a vegan cafe, I would have choked on my poached eggs. I’m pretty dependent on a classic flat white + poached eggs + avocado combo on a Saturday morning, but I was rewarded when we branched out for a super healthy brunch in St Kilda at Matcha Mylk Cafe on … Continue reading Vegan Brunch in Melbourne: Matcha Mylk Bar, St Kilda

Autumn in Melbourne’s Royal Botanic Gardens

Melbourne is enjoying a long, crisp Autumn this year, which is a relief as I’ve been dreading winter since last spring. I’ve been making the most of the milder weather, spending as much time outdoors as possible on the weekends. The Royal Botanic Gardens stretch from Southbank to South Yarra, along the Yarra River. A couple of weekends ago, we went for a big walk through … Continue reading Autumn in Melbourne’s Royal Botanic Gardens

We stopped in Washington … Continue reading Washington Square Park: A favourite place

Falling for Southern Charm in Charleston

Charleston, South Carolina, might seem like an unusual choice for a couple of twenty-somethings visiting the USA for the first time, but it ended up being one of my favourite cities. It wasn’t the Empire State Building, the Grand Canyon or the White House which made me want to visit the USA. It’s the country’s regional diversity, which still manages to put up a good … Continue reading Falling for Southern Charm in Charleston
