Over in Jersey this week, so HAD to go see the amazing Floating Earth exhibition 🌎

Created from NASA imagery of the earth’s surface, and accompanied by an poignant soundtrack, this installation is all about imparting a sense of the so-called Overview Effect (which astronauts get when viewing earth from space) and reminding us of the importance of caring for our planet 👩‍🚀

Featured as part of London’s Winter Lights Festival, this magical, free exhibition is now touring the globe, so keep an eye out for it 👀

6 Great Hidden Gems to Discover in London this Aut

6 Great Hidden Gems to Discover in London this Autumn 🇬🇧🍂

1️⃣ Kyoto Garden in Holland Park
Opened 1991, the garden was a gift from the city of Kyoto to commemorate the long friendship between Japan and Great Britain

2️⃣ Bedales in Borough Market
Featured in the movie Bridget Jones’ Diary, this gorgeous bar and eatery offers wine tasting in the heart of historic Borough Market

3️⃣ St-Dunstans-in-the-East
Grade I listed building dating back over 1000 years, this former church was badly damaged both by the Great Fire of London and the Blitz of 1941

4️⃣ 40 Elephants in Westminster
This 1920s inspired cocktail bar was named after an all-female crime collective that terrorised London’s streets right up until 1950!

5️⃣ Three Mills Islands in Newham
Located over in east London, this is the largest tidal mill in the world and great spot along the River Lea to cycle or walk

6️⃣ Community Sauna in Hackney Wick
My new fav hangout spot in London, this community space offers 90 min sessions across 6 wood fired saunas and a quirky array of plunge pools!

So lucky I got to discover some of these spots for the first time recently with @mercurehotels and @tootbuslondon 🤩

How to Get Cheap Tickets for the BBC Proms at the

How to Get Cheap Tickets for the BBC Proms at the Royal Albert Hall in London 🇬🇧 🎶

It’s the last night of the 2023 Proms tonight, but save this tip for next year because they always run the same deal! 📲

On the day of each performance, you can head to The Royal Albert Hall website at 10:30am and pick up tickets for under £10.

Choose from either the Gallery (upstairs) or the Arena (downstairs).

I recommend the Gallery, because you bring blankets and cushions to get comfy while you sit down and enjoy.

The Gallery also allows you back support as you can lean on the wall or railings!

This was my first time to the Proms and it’s very relaxed. No smart dress code and you can bring your own snacks!

Top Things to Do in London for Under £25!

🧖🏻‍♀️ The Community Sauna Baths in Hackney Wick!

The @communitysaunabaths are open 6 days a week - Tuesday to Sunday - until 9:30pm, with last entry at 8pm.

Located on Eastway the nearest station is Hackney Wick Overground.

Prices range from £8.50-£15 depending on the time you visit, meaning you’ll have change left for a snack and a drink at the end!

The sauna also takes private bookings.

Book online via their website in advance, as sessions regularly sell out.

Then just turn up with your swimwear and towel, plus flip flops and a padlock for a free locker…. And enjoy!!!
