Harry Potter Tour of London and Beyond 2019
Like any committed Potterhead, I remember exactly where I was and what I was doing when I read The Philosopher’s Stone. I was sick. Really sick. Stay-home-from-work-and-try-not-to-die sick.

Savvy Advice for the Silver Traveler
Posted by Jennifer Morris I don’t know anyone who doesn’t love the idea of traveling. Well, almost no one. A friend recently categorised her trip around the Cape as a ‘a lot of time spent away from Netflix and my own comfy bed’. So not her. But everyone else I know would love to travel....
