Old wooden totems on the shores between Asnelles and Ver sur mer. I love the way they create bold cuts in the landscape. I heard there that this was an old way to prevent the sand to be washed away. ------ Anciens totems de bois sur la plage entre Asnelles et Ver sur mer. Vestiges d'une ancienne technique pour stabiliser le sable de la plage, leur silhouette découpe le paysage.

Places to eat in London : Part 2
THE OLD BANK OF ENGLAND
Fleet Road, London
A photo similar to this basically led me to search up The Old Bank of England on google. It is probably the most curious courtyard I have ever seen because of the double-decker parked inside which, in fact, have tables inside for dining. Note that this is just a small area of the pub/restaurant. Th e inside of the old Law Court's branch of the old Bank of England has one of the most spectacular interior in all pubs of London and I am just so glad I stumbled upon this on Facebook.
To secure seats especially for a large group, it is always best to reserve a table during the evenings when the pub literally is swarmed. I have been here twice and the second one was in the middle of the day. I expected it to be almost empty but I was wrong. People from the neighbouring offices take their lunch breaks here coupled with day-drinking as well.
Since we were just here for the beer and the instagram photo-op. we just ordered one of their heritage beers, the Rivertown pils. And because we just had a huge dinner before this, we ordered just a few small appetisers. We got the KING PRAWNS PIL PIL, STICKY THAI CHICKEN BITES, AND COD GOUJONS. They were in small portions but very tasteful!
The interior of the Old Bank of England is massive and I am going to make a separate blog on this with all the gazillion of instagram photos I managed to take.

CHAI GUYS, COVENT GARDEN
Seven Dials Market, London
Not a place to eat but my friend, Sarjo, highly recommended this place for the best chai tea latte. She apparently went here last year and purchased one of their tea in tin cans and she decided to grab a different one this time around. We were so thirsty from all the walking so we got us iced chai tea lattes.
I really love how they really said it with confidence that they are the best chai in London but inserted the "probably" just to be down-to-earth. Haha.
This is me and my gorgeous friend, Sarjo, enjoying our chais. And, of course, a photo of us standing next to a cucumber-themed photobooth at Seven Dials that wasn't even functioning.

PRETO BRAZILIAN STEAKHOUSE, VICTORIA
Wilton Road, London
I haven't had Brazilian food before so when the idea came up, I was a little bit skeptical. My college friend really insisted that we go to this Brazilian buffet where they go around and serve freshly grilled meat in skewers. The idea sounded so good but I wasn't sure if I was up to it since I have been craving Chinese food at that time. But then when we got inside the restaurant, the vibe was on! The salads that were on display were so vibrant, the wide array of side dishes were five-star, and their beans with tender pork ribs was so incredible I could almost cry. That was probably my favorite! They kept on serving us grilled meat too so I was literally full to the brim in an instant. This was a no-brainer, it is one of the best buffets I have ever had in my entire life. Men with huge appetite should eat here (like my boyfriend lol).
I finally had to wave my white flag (or shall I say flipped my card to say NO to their delicious barbecued meat or known as "churrasco" in Brazil). They have this clever way of signalling the waiters to keep the meat coming with a card that say "More, Please" and of course says the opposite if you flip it. The next time I am coming to Preto for the Brazilian food buffet, I'll make sure I'll have the whole day to just sit and take it slow, skip meals before hand, and probably save the beans for last. :)
THE RUM KITCHEN, BRIXTON
Coldharbour, London
We walked into the restaurant and we were already greeted by a tables full of people of what seem to be extended families, group of friends, locals, patrons... all of them seem to be feeling really at home in The Rum Kitchen. But I can see why. The restaurant gives off such a home-y vibe. The music, the flavourful Carribean, and an order of cocktail during the ¨happy hour¨ are the key ingredients to an amazing food experience with friends and families.
Brixton is easily one of the places in London that they'd warn tourists about because of its reputation for having high crime rate and drug-related issues. But that was in the past. Brixton is one of London's revitalisation projects to recreate once more as a vibrant side of the town. The southern neighbourhood is still worth seeing though because of the food offers. And Brixton has an abundance of food products that cater to African culinary.
MIHBAJ, CAFÉ AND KITCHEN, PADDINGTON
Præd Street, London
There's nothing like ending the tour here in London with a full English breakfast. We were checked-in at a hotel in Paddington and we decided we didn't wanna walk kilometers to the best Google recommendation. We just had to find a breakfast place nearby. Mihbaj Cafe was a super cute corner for breakfast and catching up with an old friend.
Me and Andrei both got us two English breakfasts with sunny-side up eggs on sourdough, spiced sausages, mushroom, & homemade white beans (fasolia) in tomato sauce. We sat in a corner with our feet up, just chilling and enjoying the filtered light coming from above our heads. Get inspired and check out their instagram @mihbaj.

I recently did something that I hadn’t done in a while: I walked aimlessly, I stopped to draw anything that caught my eye, I sat by myself enjoying my own company… It was lovely. I was a explorer. And I have promised myself that I will keep finding time to explore. #cityexplorer #artistdate #ileftmyheartinsanfrancisco #DianaToledano #traveljournal #travelsketchbook #kidlitartist @eastwestlit (at San Francisco, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqEB1b6v0Ci/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

My first time in #Rome was in 2012. It was the first time I dared to travel alone, and it changed my life. From that trip on, I understood that #SoloTravel was more than a vacation, it was a journey to yourself, it was freedom, it was fear, it was joy, it was sadness but most of all it was awe. Standing in awe of new cultures, new people, new foods, and most of all in awe of the beauty of navigating all of it alone, without judgment or restraint. This last version of #VicOnTheRun was about more than just visiting unknown places, it was a journey into myself and a hug from me to me, to remember that even if no one understands my choices, my likes, my wants, my needs or my boundaries, This life belongs only to Me. #Encore #Italy #TravelJournal #FYP https://www.instagram.com/p/CpVNhq6rQY8/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Journal Prompts For Those Planning a Holiday
The Importance of Thoughtful Holiday Planning
When I first started planning my holidays, it often felt overwhelming. There were so many things to consider, from destinations to budgets, that I would sometimes freeze in indecision. That's when I stumbled upon the idea of using journal prompts. It was a game-changer because it allowed me to break down my planning in a structured and meaningful way.
How Journal Prompts Bring Clarity
Using journal prompts, I could outline my thoughts and dreams about my perfect holiday. Prompts like "Describe your ideal vacation day" or "What activities do you enjoy most when on holiday?" helped me identify what truly mattered to me. This practice brought clarity, turning a vague wish to "go somewhere nice" into a detailed vision of what I wanted.
Personalizing Your Holiday Experience
I remember one prompt asking me to list the top three things I wanted to feel during my holiday. I wrote down "relaxed," "adventurous," and "connected with nature." This simple exercise led me to choose a serene beach destination that offered both water sports and hiking trails. Instead of a generic trip, my holiday became a personalized experience that ticked all my boxes.
Managing Stress and Expectations
Journal prompts also helped me manage my stress levels. Questions like "What are your biggest travel anxieties?" and "How can you prepare to minimize these fears?" made me preemptively address potential issues, like booking accommodations well in advance or researching local customs. Writing about my experiences made me realize that my fears were manageable with a bit of planning.
Creating Lasting Memories
It's amazing how writing down memories can make them more vivid. After using journal prompts to plan my holidays, I began using them to document my trips. Reflective questions like "What were the highlights of your trip?" or "What surprised you the most?" allowed me to relive and cherish those moments. These entries became treasured keepsakes that I often revisit to relive my adventures.
Adopting a Holistic Planning Approach
By focusing on journal prompts, I could see my holiday as more than just a break from routine. It became a holistic experience that addressed my mental, emotional, and physical needs. Journal prompts made my trips more rewarding and fulfilling.

The Caribbean Hotel and Tourism Association (CHTA) is embarking on an exciting new initiative – their first-ever multi-destination media trip! This innovative program, scheduled for May 17th to 27th, 2024, aims to showcase the incredible diversity and interconnectedness of the Caribbean region. The media trip will offer journalists a firsthand glimpse into the vibrant cultures, breathtaking landscapes, and unique experiences that await travelers across four distinct island destinations: St. Lucia, Barbados, Jamaica, and the Cayman Islands. CHTA Shines a Spotlight Celebrating Collaboration and Caribbean Character CHTA President Nicola Madden-Greig expresses her enthusiasm for the program, highlighting its significance: "This initiative is a powerful testament to the collaborative spirit and interconnected nature that are the hallmarks of Caribbean tourism. Our goal is to showcase the diverse offerings of St. Lucia, Barbados, Jamaica, and the Cayman Islands, inspiring travelers to explore the myriad experiences waiting to be discovered across our beautiful region." While unforeseen circumstances necessitated the Dominican Republic's withdrawal from this particular trip, there are plans to include this vibrant nation in future multi-destination endeavors. Madden-Greig emphasizes the unique character of each Caribbean island: "The Caribbean is often mistakenly viewed as a homogenous entity – a place where seeing one island means you've seen them all. This media trip will dispel that myth, showcasing the undeniable diversity, cultural richness, and captivating mystique that define our distinct islands. Just like exploring Europe allows for a multitude of experiences across diverse destinations, the Caribbean offers the same incredible opportunity for discovery." A Journey Through Paradise: Unveiling the Caribbean's Treasures Developed in collaboration with key tourism organizations – the Jamaica Tourist Board, Jamaica Hotel & Tourist Association, Saint Lucia Tourism Authority, Cayman Islands Department of Tourism, and Cayman Islands Tourism Association – the media trip itinerary promises an immersive and unforgettable experience. Participating journalists will begin their journey in St. Lucia, where they will be captivated by the island's stunning landscapes and pristine beaches. Following a captivating layover in Barbados, the trip continues to Jamaica, offering a chance to delve into the island's rich culture and radiant beauty. The final stop is the Cayman Islands, where iconic landmarks and pristine waters create a memorable conclusion to the adventure. Strategic Synergy: Amplifying the Impact The media trip is strategically timed to coincide with the prestigious Caribbean Travel Marketplace, taking place May 21st to 23rd in Jamaica. This timing allows journalists to maximize their networking opportunities and gain valuable insights from industry leaders attending the region's premier tourism conference. These connections can enrich their coverage of the multi-destination experience, providing readers with a well-rounded perspective on the unique offerings of each participating island. The media trip promises to be a valuable platform for showcasing the diversity and interconnectedness of the Caribbean, fostering stronger industry partnerships, and ultimately inspiring travelers to embark on their own Caribbean adventures.
