We really are spoilt for choice when it comes to beaches in New Zealand. I can count 6 that are all within a 10 minute drive from my home in East Auckland. I don’t often make it to the Western beaches as it takes around an hour to get to one, but they sure are worth…
Travel
Rotorua Trip
A couple of months ago I traveled with my best friend to Rotorua for the weekend. I had already been there a few years ago, but had never gone to Waiotapu or the Redwood forest and I wasn’t as interested in photography back then as I am now. So this trip, we spent a lot of time…
Wave Hill
I take so many photos sometimes they get overlooked and forgotten about. While looking through my collection recently I came across these photos that I took at Wave Hill. I found out about Wave Hill from my boss, who suggested I go there to take photos as it’s so beautiful. I took my friend Blanca…
Washington D.C.
Last month my friend was here from Spain and every time she visits we like to take a day-trip to somewhere out of the city. This time we decided on Washington D.C. It takes 5 hours on the bus from New York City, so it is a rather ambitious day-trip, but it worked. We had…
The Colours of Spring
My favourite part of Spring is the beautiful flowers and trees that blossom, making for striking photographs full of colour. New York City had a particularly cold and long winter, which seemed to drag on so it’s a welcome relief to the senses now that Spring has arrived. If you read my blog regularly, you’ll…
Pop-Up Cat Cafe
For a city that has practically everything, New York was missing one thing: a cat cafe. That is until Purina ONE decided to open one in Manhattan for 4 days only. The mission behind the cat cafe was a worthy one indeed: all the cats in the cafe were up for adoption, searching for their…
An Afternoon in Red Hook
The other week I explored the town of Red Hook in Brooklyn. I had only been there previously to go to IKEA and it’s a small mission to get to (I had to take 2 trains then a bus), but once you’re there, it makes for an interesting destination. There is also a ferry you…
Roosevelt Island
This past Sunday I visited Roosevelt Island, a narrow island that lies between Manhattan and Queens in New York City’s East River and is accessed by a tramway. It takes about 5 minutes to get to the island on the tramway and you get a wonderful view of the city from high above the bridge….
By Misha A/W 2014 In Collaboration With GBGH Jewelry And MaryLai New York
During New York Fashion Week I attended the By Misha fashion presentation ‘Eloquence’, which was held at the Lali Lali gallery. As well as clothing, there was also jewelry by GBGH Jewelry and handbags by MaryLai New York. Fashion designer Misha Vaidya, who was born and raised in London and studied in Miami, launched By…
A Snowy Wonderland
My favorite season for taking photos in Central Park is definitely winter. I just can’t get over how it looks like a magical wonderland when the park is blanketed in snow, it really is so beautiful. We’re experiencing an arctic blast this week, and it snowed all day Tuesday with temperatures around -13 degrees celsius….
