Peckish in South Kensington, London: Brompton Food Market, Cafe de Nata
Whewwww there’s a lot of my travel stuff that I haven’t gone through from my Europe trip back in July. One of my favourite areas to visit and be touristy is South Kensington area. When it comes to travelling, I’m a firm believer in eating little things throughout the day so I can jam pack as much tastes as I can savour. South Kensington is in the western part of London, with popular museums such as Science Museum, Victoria and Albert Musuem as well as the Natural History Musuem. Between all the museum hopping, sustenance is required in between.
I am excited for . . . Vancouver Beanstock Coffee Festival!
It’s cold, it’s rainy, and I work at least 40 hours a week. There’s not much to look forward to most of my time. Except, when an email about the Vancouver Beanstock Coffee Festival reached my inbox! My coffee addiction has grown over the past few years and it definitely have conquered my old tea addiction. The third Beanstock Coffee Festival is from November 2-3 on Granville Island and not only do you get to try some amazing coffee (my brother vouched this,) but also get some cute coffee mugs 😀 .

The Body Shop Ginger Collection – TLDR: 100% WILL REPURCHASE
Among my friends, I am pretty much known for enjoying anything ginger flavoured. This is probably because my stomache is as soft as tofu so I am sensitive to many foods, and anything ginger will calm me down immensely. I even have a ginger candle at home, thank goodness my boyfriend is ok with it! When I was in Amsterdam, I probably spent a good chunk of money on their ginger tea alone. So when The Body Shop came out with the Ginger collection, I knew I had to try everything. [Read more…]
