Fluffy White Clouds
Little White Clouds I’m a sucker for positivity, so when I first saw the white fluffy clouds in Covent Garden, I naturally smiled cheek to cheek. That’s the one reaction you will see on most people’s faces as they see the fluffy clouds.

MARBLE HILL HOUSE
Remember I said I planned to visit Marble Hill House in my last blog? Well, I managed to go back to Twickenham and visit. This time, I went via Richmond and saved myself some money, which I then spent in the Marble Hill House cafe after my visit. Who said Cinderella isn't economical? 😅. Plus, Marble Hill House is free to visit. I think that's a fair win/win.

The Gloriana
The one thing that strikes you when you see the 8ft Gloriana rowing barge is the striking Gold used on the Gloriana. Did you know she’s covered in 23.5-carat gold leaf? It is unusual for any royal vessel to be this bling, but the Queen or other royal family members didn’t commission the Gloriana. It was gifted to her by a generous donor.

Cafés of Reykjavik
I recently had the wonderful opportunity to travel to Iceland on an EF Ultimate Break tour. I chose this tour company because I like the fact that it's exclusive to people in my age group (young adults). Iceland, the land of ice and fire, is a beautiful country inhabited by friendly and caring people. I can't wait to go back one day! In this article, I talk about some of my favorite cafés in Reykjavik!

The Vintage Boat Festival in St Katherine's Dock
St. Kat's is usually a great idea any time of the week, but when there's an event, you can expect it to be busy. Cinderella isn't a fan of crowds, but I decided to go anyway. St. Kat's always has something on, and it pays to look at their website to find out what's on. For more information on events, check out https://www.skdocks.co.uk

Changing the Narrative: Debunking Prejudice Against Female Solo Travellers In India
Changing the Narrative: Debunking Prejudice Against Female Solo Travellers In India Travelling alone in India can be quite challenging for women. They often face questions from strangers and encounter scepticism when they decide to embark on solo journeys. Many female solo travellers come from backgrounds where independent travel is uncommon, which leads them to defy familial and societal expectations to pursue their desire to explore the world on their terms.

Home
Today, I go to see London again. I see London every Sunday if I feel productive during my week. It’s my way of cheering and treating myself with the crowd. River Thames is a murky mess again but the buildings are clear. I head toward the Anchor. This time, after getting my Peroni, I sit in a different corner, dimmer and darker. This time, I also make sure to light my JPS after drinking up the second pint. It helps my imagination travel beyond myself and into the present. I no longer think about home in yesterday and home in tomorrow. I only float in between.

The Painted Hall
One word to describe it? Wow. It’s in the Old Naval College and it’s ticketed otherwise it would be overwhelmed by too many visitors unwilling to leave. I’ve been to a couple of exhibitions, both by Luke Jerome and I’ve been mesmerised by the Hall.
