EAST LONDON EVENING












































The weeks have flown by in a whirl, ladies & gents.
After family time in England over the New Year,
I found myself there again,
this time in East London.


























We spent the days presenting our photo books 
arriving after a long day
to cups of tea & chocolate cake,
followed by a glass of red from the honesty bar,
before venturing out to dinner.























Nothing like running a bath last thing at night,
(or first thing in the morning for that matter...)























and falling fast asleep in a canopy bed
fit for a queen.


















Somehow it does good for the soul
to offset busyness & people
with a quiet place to crawl into.
Something I need to find every day,
even if a canopy bed is replaced by a nook on the sofa,
music to the ears,
 a walk,
pen to paper,
lens to light,
no distractions.

SW4












a dose of interior inspo
from a light-filled,
natural, pared-down London home.

LONDON ETERNAL


































Then finally there was London,
and all that it entails.
Like walking for miles on end
& whiling away in a park -



































& rekindling an old love affair.


(I'm sure I'm not the only one
who thinks you can love a city
like you can love a person.
We've had our ups & downs,
but this is strong.) 













Sokerina pohjalla oli Lontoo
ja kaikki se, 
mikä sen kanssa menee käsi kädessä
- kilometrikaupalla kävely,
hengähdyshetket puistossa
& vanhan romanssin lämmittely. 

En taida olla ainoa,
jonka mielestä kaupunkia 
voi rakastaa niinkuin ihmistä.
Meillä on ollut ylä- ja alamäkiä,
mutta tämä ei hellitä.
