(The pictures above are from a celebration outing that a few of us had last week. We went to see The Moonwalkers: A journey with Tom Hanks, followed by (non-alcoholic) drinks and dinner. It was awesome!)

One of the most amazing things about the Wild Pilgrim adventure to Knoydart was the opportunity...

(The pictures above are a few from 1000+ images I took of my travels to Fort William, Inverie, Mallaig, and Knoydart Peninsula in Scotland)

24 hours late. I know. And also right on time. 

I landed back in the 'real world' two days ago, after a week of wild camping, no internet, and moving from pla...

(The pictures above are: 1 & 2 - a hidden coffee shop that I walked past twice before I eventually fount it! 3 - some steps near a train station in east London that mesmorised me!  4 - I had to buy a new rucksack. This one was unused and purchased a month ago... but look, something so small can br...

(The pictures above are: 1 - a robot grass cutter that I found amusing; 2 - my cat working alongside me; 3 - I had a chapter published in the 'Inclusion Emergency' (published by the RIBA) last week; 4 - a mug that sums up my goals for 2024; 5,6 & 7 - photos from the Parkland Walk in North London) ...

(The pictures above are a sample from a trip to Hampshire over the weekend. We visited Winchester Cathedral and stayed at The Grange. It was a real delight!)

Yesterday I took part in a feldenkrais session as part of a retreat I attended. Briefly feldenkrais is a 'somatic education uses gentle movem...

A few days ago I was in a large French supermarket in Essaouria, Morocco and I saw a couple (who I assume were together based on the way they were interacting with eachother) that had sat in front of me on the same flight. We were walking towards the tills to pay. One of them caught my eye and I nod...

​​​​I have had an unusually relaxing Sunday today. I woke up early and did my breathing practice, and a few hours later went for a walk with my husband to Walthamstow Wetlands. This afternoon I have been catching up on things that are overdue in relation to my writing — if you are reading this and I...

 "You look gorgeous"

"That's so cute"

"Is that your cat?"

These are some of the things I said to strangers during my travels in London last week.

Inappropriate? Unprofessional? Too much? 

Let's see...

I am a Londoner born and bred. I lived in Glasgow for 10 years and have had stints* in Egypt,...

A lot can happen in 10 days... 

On Monday 8th April 2024 I was in an all day training on Advanced Conflict Transformation from 10am to 6pm. It was also the 29th of Ramadan and I had only had 2 hours of sleep by 10am that day.... and my group decided that I would be the best one to lead the group sy...

I love the BBC series Pilgrimage. In it celebrities of different backgrounds and beliefs go on a 'journey of a lifetime.' Over the years pilgrimages to Rome, the Camino, Scotland, Istanbul, and Portugal have been covered and I have learned so much about humanity, different belief systems, and the ch...

There are so many different things I wanted to write about today. Yesterday I attended an 'office hours' session with the Center for Courage and Renewal where I am undertaking a 'circle of trust' facilitation program. I have to deliver a practice session in a few weeks time and I had done very littl...

Happy Sunday! I know for a lot of people this particular Sunday is a leisurely day off that will be spent with families and friends... for others it will be the 21st day of Ramadan and the fasting and everything that goes with that continues! I feel compelled to send an invitation for you to enjoy t...
