Farm to Film

Film crews are the hungriest, most gourmand lot of people in the world, with de facto understanding to be fed well at all times. We make the most of our travels exploring local food at every shoot away from home. This time was no exception.

Albert Cuyp Maarkt, Amsterdam

A brilliant winter morning spent wandering the legendary Albert Cuyp maarkt In hipster Amsterdam never disappoints. it is filled with curiosities, delicious food, and some pretty amazing people and sights. Definitely a a must visit if, like me, you like to ramble around and wander!

A very Bellini afternoon

A chiqe afternoon at the Belmond Hotel Cipriani in Venice learning the art of the Belini, in Venice, ah magical, mythical Venezia.

The Sweet Life in France

Sweet memories from trips to France, from way back in 1989 until recently. Filled with patisseries and boulangeries, Baba au rhums and so much more. Don’s say I did’t warn you!!

A Flaneur in Paris #TBT

My memories of Paris, starting with Shakespeare & Co and the Rive Gauche, walking the Left Bank and just being a french flaneur

Japalouppe

…..even though I am a long lost and forgotten rider. Rohan swears he once caught me standing in the saddle and making a mental decision to fall off a stationary horse. I only remember the thud and looking up dazed, at a bright blue sky.

The Viennese Cafe

My week in Vienna is spent in never-ending delight. My beloved friend Dani Wadia showed me her city as we walked endlessly among old buildings, royal palaces, cobbled pedestrian streets, and by the blue Danube. Really, Vienna would have been boring and different without this amazing woman, with her penchant for the offbeat, the quirky and the utterly enchanting……There! I have added epic cafes to my list of gardens, bookstores and libraries to skulk around when abroad. ……Try the offbeat when you are in Vienna.

Vienna, immer schoen!

Vienna has long been on my wishlist, but discovering it with my Vienna friend made it magical. Vienna is quirky, special and offbeat too! I did some really fun things and had the most wonderful time.

Monet’s Garden, Giverny

one of the most beautiful gardens of the world, a day spent at Giverny on my milestone birthday was the best gift ever.

Flora

I am sharing some more photos of me in love with the most gorgeous tulips at the tulip fields in Sassenheim, Netherlands.
