Have you ever experienced a serendipitous travel moment that stayed with you long after returning home? One you still reminisce about years later? This is ours — an unforgettable evening we stumbled across in Tokyo. How We Stumbled Across Janu Bar At the end of our holiday in Japan, we returned to Tokyo before we flew home, and decided to revisit the places we loved most.

"I’d love to use custom wallpaper… but it takes too long." I've heard this many times, from both home owners and interior designers who are used to waiting up to 12 weeks or more for suppliers to ship their products from overseas. It's a fair assumption, but it's unfounded. This is a more detailed article that builds on my article: What To Know Before Hiring A Wallpaper Designer.

One of the most stunning and peaceful hikes of my life, hiking the Hooker Valley Track was an incredible experience and one of the highlights of our first visit to New Zealand's South Island.
