im alive!!

i finally have some time to update the blog! 

unfortunately, this is a crappy update haha

i have not taken many pictures because 

i have the entire year to do it and don't want

to freak out my new flat mates by taking 

out my camera every time we walk by something pretty. 

i am really enjoying it here though, 

it is not much different from the states 

aside from the obvious differences in 

cars and signs and the beautiful 

architecture. i am excited for the 

next year here, i am sure i will 

have lots of things to post about 

but i don't think i will be doing much 

of that for a while, i still have lots to do!

until next time

love how the curve of the trainset 

echos the curvs in the table 

and chair and floor lamp.

home again, home again

i just got back from new york and rhode island today 

and am not looking forward to another long flight!

i have three days left until london, so sorry for the 

rushed posts to come!

evolution NYC

a few of my favorite items from the website for

evolution nyc. their site does not do the store justice!

if your not already familiar with this store

 on broadway in soho new york, you should make yourself. 

i have been to several similar stores but this one takes the cake! 

great variety of high and low end natural curiosities

 from beetle keychains and porcupine quills to replica skulls and taxidermy.
