I was scared to make this post public public. Because it’s a stake in the ground and a peek behind the curtain at my private working life. Most keep their goals fuzzy, never telling another soul, so there’s never a prospect of failure. If you don’t aim, you can’t miss. But I figured people love […]

The Second Month of Marathon Training
If you told me two months ago that I’d run twelve miles in two hours, I wouldn’t have believed you. Nor would anybody who knew me. But that’s exactly what I did this week. I’ve gone from never running more than ten minutes at a wheeze-filled pace to smashing a decent time for what’s almost […]
Babbel vs Rocket vs LanguagePod101 vs LingQ Review (2020)

You Will Know Me By My Sacrifice

The First Month of Marathon Training

But if you don’t habitually do good things, you are not a good person. Most people aren’t good. They aren’t particularly […]

I’m a huge Gordon Ramsay fan. His MasterClasses taught me to cook some exceptional dishes. And I love the man’s attitude and work ethic. So I was excited to get the chance of a kitchen dining experience in his Michelin star French restaurant in Knightsbridge, Petrus. Petrus Restaurant Review I’m a foodie but not a […]
Treehouse Hotel London Review
I was one of the first guests to stay in the new Treehouse Hotel in the London neighbourhood of Marylebone, a day after its grand opening. I had no idea what to expect. This was the first time I’d chosen a hotel that had no reviews and only a few promotional pictures. But I loved […]
