|  | Born and bred in Sydney, my husband and I have been living in London since 2002. We are in no rush to move back to Australia anytime soon - Although we miss family and friends, living on this side of the world makes exploring Europe and beyond so much easier!
When I am not travelling, or planning the next trip, I love to go out and discover new places to eat in London. I am obsessed with photographing my meals and writing all about them.
Besides my reviews on VirtualTourist, you can also read about my food exploits on TrustedPlaces - why not sign up to the site and send me a message so we can share our favourite places! I am also getting right into Flickr.Win a £500 dinner in a top London restaurant! Details here |
====================================================Since moving to London in 2002, I have had the opportunity to do plenty of travel, though things have slowed down in 2008 as priorities change. Click here for a list of what I have been up to over the past few years!
Check out my London page for details of life away from home. This page will always be updated as I experience more in this fabulous city....and eat out more!
I share my travels and my life with my fabulous husband Alex. We met in Sydney, and moved over to London together, later getting married here. He is the perfect person to travel with - he lets me organise everything & is happy for me to play tour guide (which I love!), plus he will insist on carrying my suitcase up any stairs we encounter - what a man!! |  | | Alex & me - Bologna, Italy - Sep 2006 |

|  | ====================================================VT Meetings
* HORSCHECK came back for his annual visit to London, and this time yumyum came too! A small group of us got together for lunch and to see the 2008 Switched on London illuminations. Pics here.
* When member rexvaughan told me he was coming to London I just had to meet him! A small group got together to welcome Rex to town. Pics here.
I often have small 'VT meetings' in London...but don't call them meetings anymore, as some of the people I have met through VT I now class as good friends.
* In 2006 I attended one of the biggest ever VT meetings - click here for pics!. Thanks Jenniflower for all your hard work in organising this one.
* It was an amazing experience to have been part of the 1st Official European VT Meeting in Verona/Valeggio sul Mincio, Italy in May 2005. |
