Being a Tourist in Perth

I had the pleasure of showing my kiwi mate around Perth.
At first you think what is there to show her, Perth is boring.
I learnt alot about little old Perth:
  • We don't have any wild Koala in WA.
  • We have over 6 different chicken fast food places.
  • Kings Park has some awesome walks to do.
  • I love the south west no matter when im down there.
  • The zoo is cool no matter what age you are.
  • We have the best beaches in the world.
Thanks my Kiwi mate, loved every minute and miss your crazy accent. :)

Graffiti in Berlin

Graffiti, call it art or vandalism it is everywhere in Berlin.
It was there way of expressing freedom once the wall came down in 1989.
Some of these artist have become so famous around the world, some people have actually
chipped away at the concrete wall to steal the art work.



 Stencil art

 pre-painted art on paper then glued to wall
 Little Lucy oh so cute, she is scattered around the streets
showing different ways she would kill her kitty



 The east side gallery, the longest part of the Berlin wall still standing

I had the opportunity to see the London Design Festival
and do they know how to have a festival.
Things happening everyday and scattered through-out the city of London, eek i was excited and exhausted by the end of it :)
I was lucky enough to find a design enthusiast Hester B to drag along to the different places i picked out and got the chance to show her around some of my favourite spots in London.

How cute are these I think i need one in my lounge

 Super cute present, a knitted dog and a do-it-yourself kit as well

 I heart all things felt at the moment

 I love these foam lights, i just need a house with a high ceiling
