Taking Stock

11 Sep 2019 by petrinachristine

I read my good friend’s Sweedas blog (check it out here) and found a great post which was about taking stock of your life by answering a list of questions. I thought it was a great read so decided to do my own stock take. Taking stock list Making: Checklists to become more productive and to form new habits. Cooking: Grilled chicken and vegetables. I’m trying to bring my own lunches to work instead of going to the canteen. I […]

Cocktails at Tonight Josephine’s

8 Jun 2019 by petrinachristine

Sweeda and I decided to go for cocktails at Tonight Josephine’s in Waterloo. The cocktail bar is based on Waterloo Road across the road from Waterloo Station. It’s best to reserve a table to avoid disappointment as it’s another Instagram favourite. From the moment you step inside, you see a variety of pretty girly decor with neon lights and a hidden floral ceiling corridor. The bar was smaller than I imagined. The tables and chairs are quite high up so […]

Waitress The Musical and Ping Pong Restaurant

22 May 2019 by petrinachristine

Hazel found some cheap tickets online for Waitress The Musical and we couldn’t turn them done. I love going to the theatre and watching a good show. The musical was showing at the Adelphi Theatre on the Strand just a small walk from London Charing Cross Train Station. I heard good reviews and it was a show I wanted to see. We decided to make an evening of it so Hazel booked Ping Pong Restaurant for Dim Sum. The restaurant […]

Kalbi Korean BBQ Restaurant

18 May 2019 by petrinachristine

Kalbi is a Korean BBQ Restaurant in Clerkenwell and a 5 minute walk from Farringdon Station. Sweeda mentioned it while we in Copenhagen and suggested I make a visit and that time has come today. When we arrived the restaurant was packed but this started to ease down during the evening. Sweeda made a reservation so our table was ready. The venue was nothing to shout about with basic decor. You can order from the main menu which includes sushi and bento […]

Bullet Journalling

27 Dec 2018 by petrinachristine

In an attempt to organise myself and my life, I decided to see what the Bullet Journal craze was all about. In 2016, my friend Mairo told me about Bullet Journalling so I decided to have a look on YouTube the font of all knowledge to research this new way of organising. I found a great YouTuber called Boho Berry, who had some great videos on how to plan and set up your journal. As soon as I finished watching the […]

Merry Christmas Everyone

25 Dec 2018 by petrinachristine

It’s that time of year where you get to spend it with family or friends. The time to eat food, watch Christmas Movies (Home Alone is a must) and play board games. I love this time of year because you get to forget everything that’s around you and just enjoy the time with family. Christmas came around so quick this year and I left everything to the last minute. I finally finished my Christmas shopping yesterday. It doesn’t feel like […]

Thai and Hot Chocolate

13 Dec 2018 by petrinachristine

It’s been ages since I’ve seen my friend Reenaa, so when she asked if I was free to meet I said yes. It was lovely to catch up after such a long time; almost 6 months to be exact. We met at work 9 years ago and have been friends ever since. Also, I got the chance to fly to India for her lovely wedding 2 years ago. Reenaa took me to a small Thai Restaurant called Thai Metro near […]
