Rajissimo in Copenhagen has the best churros I’ve ever eaten, and I miss it soooo much! When I stumbled upon Churros Plus in Perth, the sugar-cinnamon aroma single-handedly overpowered all my will to eat clean. The plus-sized made-to-order churros are filled to-the-brim with chocolate, vanilla or caramel flavours. A little disturbed by how phallic-looking my food…

London Lovin’: Windswept
Good morning London! My face is so not ready to see the world, but this face is so ready to brace the autumn winds hitting the streets today at 24km/h. I’ve heard that some flights leaving London were cancelled in lieu of bad weather. Ironically I’m hoping it stays this way! Have prepared a ready…
