A random little update.

We've all heard of 'Working remotely'. What about living remotely... Is that a thing? Well, sometimes it feels like I'm 'Living remotely' as well. It's actually pretty cool though. I've spent many years traveling with work and living out of a suitcase. In 2019 we (my partner and I) sort out moved down to London, as I was always down in London working almost every week.. but at that time we were  in fact still dividing our time between Leeds and London. Then of course, we ended up in one place during the pandemic. Now that things are very much back to normal (what we can call normal) we are basically going back to the original plan and from the beginning of March, we are going to be once again dividing our time between Leeds and London. I really feel lucky to be able to say that I actually live in / divide my time, between London and Leeds. Not many people can say that they are self-employed and actually have a home in two different cities. Not to mention

Life of a Publicist

ELVIS: Direct From Graceland - My review.

Image
I had the pleasure of attending the brand new Arches Venue at London Bridge, along with their first event/exhibition ‘Elvis: Direct From Graceland’. This exhibition showcases the very best of the legacy that is The King of Rock and Roll, with everything that Graceland (the home of Elvis) has to offer. Bring the very best of Graceland to London. When I first heard about this exhibition, I went to book my tickets straight away. Then when I was invited to the launch party and to write this review, I thought, I’m going to be able to talk about something I love. I’ve been a massive Elvis fan for over 30 years. The venue was originally planned to be opened as a club, but I found on the night, that they had then decided that it would be better to make it an event and exhibition space, I completely agree and the venue is incredible. It’s located just a few minutes walk from London Bridge Underground. It’s a really stylish and modern place. When you enter, you’ll find the reception on the right
