We organised a daytrip to the capital and took a Harry Potter walking tour to explore the various places featured in the movies.

Leave a CommentI took a day trip to Warwick Castle – probably the best British castle for families and other tourists. There are more than 2000 castles in the country, but Warwick Castle is almost certainly the most fun, especially for children. This time around we visited in Winter, which has a slightly different vibe and activities compared to summertime. Of course,…
Leave a CommentTaking two kids obsessed with Harry Potter to the one place they’ve been begging to see since they were 6 years old… Harry Potter Studio Tour (“The Making of Harry Potter”) in “London” (it’s actually Watford, but close enough, I guess!).

Leave a CommentOn 19th September 2021, thousands of people around the world completed 10 kilometres in order to set a new world record.

And why, despite being vegan myself, I really can’t stand a lot of other vegans. In particular, “Ethical Vegan” activists, who have turned their lifestyle choice into a religion –…
Leave a CommentI’ve never dyed my hair before – I’ve just never been brave enough. And, to tell you the truth, I’m still not brave enough. But a fellow comedian offered to do it for me, and luckily she’s a trained professional so I knew I was in good hands. Unfortunately, ever since childhood, I’ve been absolutely terrified of hairdressers and barbers.…
Leave a CommentI finally got around to doing my first proper YouTube video – after many, many, many, aborted attempts. I’ve filmed hours and hours of footage and just hated all of it. So, instead, I put a brief two-minute intro together as I can’t procrastinate on this task any more.
