I’m back home in London! I start my new contract on Monday so I still had today off to frolic around. I went into town to get some shopping done and went via the beautiful Barbican Centre as a detour to lunch with an old colleague.

Today we climbed the 366 steps up the Belfort Tower and got defended by the incredible bells.. We had gorgeous views of the square though! And then followed it up with a huge mug of hot chocolate.

Bruges is truly gorgeous. We’ve had a fantastic day mulling around, taking photos and drinking beer. We’ve been so lucky with the weather as well. Belgium has been wonderful so far!

After a minor delay and a few mini bottles of wine, we’ve made it to Bruges! Our short getaway between contracts has begun and we’ve already had chips and mayo, perfect.
