On Saturday
we went to the fancy ME Hotel
off the Strand, where the program for the day was carefully put together by the
organisers. It was an exciting day where we learned a lot and I made some great
connections with some truly inspiring people. One of my highlights was my
lesson with the talented photographer Paul Craig,
where I actually learned how to go beyond my automatic settings on my camera.
Photography is really something I whish I knew more about, so this lesson was
really valuable to me and put me in the right direction. It was also
interesting to hear well established bloggers like Yvonne Eijkenduijn of Yves Town and Will Taylor of Bright Bazaar talk about their experiences
in the blogging world and they were also sharing their tips on how to make
inspiring posts.
Then on Sunday there was a City Design tour
organised by the lovely Tina Bernstein, of Colourliving Blog, which took us to
Portobello where we snooped in several interior shops. My highlights of the tour
was Tom Dixon at Portobello Dock, a curiosity
shop called Les Couilles Du
Chien, a lovely little ceramic shop called Ceramica Blue and the always wonderful Pedlars. Again it was such an inspiring day
and I am so glad I went, even though I am not a 'proper' blogger yet :)
Till next time, take care.
