Last week, it was a pleasure to attend in a personal capacity a truly inspiring evening with UN Women at Meta headquarters in London. The event brought together delegates from across the country to come together and celebrate and recognise UN Women’s good work, both...
Milan and Lake Como
Originally, the plan was to head down to Cornwall to get a few days away, however, unforeseen circumstances thwarted that so a last minute plan was required stat. So, it was concluded that the next best thing would be an impromptu trip to Italy, hopefully for some...
Life lately #17
I think we can all agree it has been a shocker of a summer and for the first time since I moved back to the UK, I’m genuinely missing life in Dubai - namely the weather! I am back with a flurry of blog posts that I have not had the time or chance to put up until now....
Creativity, culture and inspiring women at Rosewood London

Behind the scenes at United Nations Headquarters – New York
During my recent trip to New York, it was wonderful to be welcomed by a friend to the United Nations headquarters for a behind-the-scenes insight and to learn more about some of the key UN initiatives and important work currently underway. I couldn't think of a better...
Life lately #16
This blogpost has been sitting in my drafts for far too long and is massively overdue. I feel like the last few months have just flown by in a bit of a blur and summer is slipping away all too quickly. I’ll keep it short and sweet for this month’s instalment, in the...

I was lucky enough to attend (in a personal capacity) a beautiful breakfast with Harpers Bazaar UK at the Four Seasons Park Lane, London. The intimate breakfast gathering brought together a group of likeminded and inspiring women to connect and share stories. We...
Exploring Oxford
My father hails from Oxfordshire so I have been to the county countless times. That said, never had I been to the famous university city of Oxford. It's been on my list for way too long and with a few days off in the form of a bank holiday weekend, it was decided that...
Life lately #15
We are days away from spring and undeniable harbingers of the impending warmer weather have started to appear: daffodils are out in full force; lighter and longer evenings; hot cross buns (yes I’ve already been indulging). I always breathe a sigh of relief when it’s...
International Women’s Day at Rosewood London
International Women's Day 2024 has just been and gone and this year I marked the occasion at Rosewood London for a beautifully befitting gathering hosted by female-led creative agency, Female Narratives. The gathering was hosted at Rosewood London's Scarfes Bar (which...
Hay-on-Wye – UK
Sometimes, we all need a little escapism from the minutiae of the day-to-day, and for me there are presciently two ways that I like to do just that: an adventure somewhere new or disappearing into something all engrossing, such as a book. On this occasion I decided to...
