Look up London

Just days after London experienced the worst terror attack in years, an unexpected warm and sunny weekend allowed us to reflect on the resilience, strength and beauty of one of the greatest cities in the world. Walking the streets and parks of London it was as if every single household had come out of hibernation.

We’re all guilty of scurrying between stations and offices with our eyes glued to our phones. I’ll have a hunchback in no time if I don’t start looking up. When you avoid taking the tube, it’s amazing what you can discover.

I wanted to share a few snaps from a glorious weekend taking a walk through my favourite city.
