As you might have already gathered, this blogger is very partial to a good meal, especially one that I haven’t had to prepare myself. I love sampling foods by different chefs, different cuisines and different experiences. I’ve never met a tasting menu I didn’t enjoy! Even better than that, there’s nothing I love more than… Read More BVI Culinary Team Dinner
One of the highlights of the BVI social calendar is the Leverick Bay Poker Run – every year in May, speedboats of all shapes and sizes from around the Caribbean convene in the North Sound for some of the hottest cards in town.

Happy Friday everyone! A few years ago I came across the 100 Happy Days Project on 100HappyDays.com. Such a simple premise but I didn’t realise how much it could improve my life. Since completing it the first time, I did it again the following year and, after a bit of a tough week, I’ve decided to… Read More #100HappyDays

It all started with some innocent research for my 80s themed birthday party (silly pics on Instagram – I was a My Little… Read More Friday Favourites – Mermaid Edition!
Sunday was my birthday, I turned 30 *ahem* and-a-few-more… and I thought that it was the ideal opportunity to open up and tell you a bit about myself. So here goes nothing! 1. The only perfume I’ll wear is Issey Miyake L’Eau D’Issey Eau de Parfum. (I’ve been wearing it for 17 years now and… Read More 33 Things
No trip to the British Virgin Islands would be complete with a visit to the beautiful island of Virgin Gorda. Home to one of our most recognizable tourist attractions – The Baths. But the sad reality is that so much of the rest of what Virgin Gorda has to offer gets overlooked in favour of… Read More 48 hrs on Virgin Gorda
For years the farm to table concept has been gathering momentum across the world and for good reason. Eating local, shopping local produce, farmer’s markets, organic and now the freshest of the fresh – straight from the garden to the plate – means that many of us are eating better than ever. Finally, the initiative… Read More From Farm To Table: Brandywine Estate Restaurant
I love any excuse for a party – and, if I’m being entirely honest, any excuse for tequila, so naturally Cinco De Mayo is one holiday I can totally get on board with! (Although – how is it already May people??) Celebrating this Mexican theme, here are some of the things putting a big (tequila-fueled) smile… Read More Five Friday Favourites – Cinco De Mayo Edition
