Crisscrossed


As I made my way across Stockholms Skeppsholms bridge, I couldn't help but check out this stylish couple. I love the splashed lines of color on her oversized jeans and how it compliments her knotted vest. He is all about a loose fit and muted colors, but his cherry-red hat ties it all together. They make a great pair. 

The bridge itself is stunning, full of crisscrossed lines and smooth wooden planks, flanked by a gilded crown. 




Punting in Cambridge

 I've been spending a lot of time in Cambridge and Oxford over the last few weeks, mainly because as part of my summer job I'm required to regularly give a tour of these cities to large groups of international teenagers. This is quite ironic, seeing as I've never actually been to these places before, but after some time...you learn to wing it (with a map, a sense of humour and inflated false confidence). After I've shown them the main sights, I'm free to explore, and I so I headed straight for the river to check out the famous tradition. There is something quite romantic about punting, breezing along the river, ferrying passengers to and fro, having a beer. I could have watched from that bridge all day.
