Another Sunday and another day of adventure. Today, we decided to visit the former Paris house of Victor Hugo. The best thing is that this was free to visit! Victor Hugo (1802–1885) was a towering figure in 19th-century French literature, renowned for his contributions as a novelist, poet, and dramatist. His works often combined profound […]
My selection for today is based on my recent visit to Alexandre Dumas’s mansion based on the famous phrase All For One and One For All by the three musketeers. All-4-One is an American R&B and pop group that gained fame in the 1990s with their romantic ballads and smooth harmonies. Known for their soulful […]
I knew about this place which is a stone throw away from where I live and finally decided on a sunny but cold afternoon to visit this place. After visiting Jules Verne’s house in Amiens, we decided to visit the country mansion of Alexandre Dumas. Alexandre Dumas (1802–1870) was a prolific and celebrated French writer, […]
I am still recovering from a fantastic vacation with the family in Club Med Marrakesh. This song was played during the first show we attended in the evening. My full admiration towards the G.Os at club med for maintaining their energy level throughout our stay and for hosting our kids at the clubs. Rai musician […]
It will be near the end of my holiday by the time this post publishes. It would have been a week in Morroco with family. As my last music posts brought back nostalgic memories of the 90s, here is another song from back then which I heard looping on the airwaves. Fastball is an American […]
We decided to spend our holidays in Morroco. We have never been here before and thought it was a great experience for all.

What a week! The house is overflowing as we probably hosted the most guests this week and work was particularly challenging. There are list of chores to be done. We finally swap our wheels for all weather tyres. Need to get a new double bed and my son’s bicycle needs fixing. Nevertheless, the weekend is […]
As the weather is turning, I also hit a milestone and have my sister visiting me this week. This reminds me that we are constantly growing. I tend to cherish those moments and try to create new memories and moments with my family. This reminded me of the song of this week from Keane. Keane […]
I am in Amiens for my Birthday weekend and as I was selecting for a location, I discovered that Jules Verne used to be one of the most popular resident here. So, who is he? Jules Verne, the renowned 19th-century French novelist and pioneer of science fiction, spent much of his later life in the […]
It is my birthday weekend and I was reminiscing of my time back in University in London. I used to have a Korean, Greek, Ukranian and Nigerian housemate in our student accommodation in McLaren House with the postcode SE1 0AP. Can’t believe that I remembered the postcode while typing it in! One of my house […]
