Are you bored of going to regular salons? How about a shiny, blingy, mobile yet static salon in the middle of a busy plaza? Why not club your break with a trim, or something more adventurous maybe? #london #newadventures #exploreuk #nonperiodicoscillations #salon #plaza #mobile #ArtOnTheCommute

Some pasta and a quick walk around The Barbican Estate made for a sumptuous lunch especially with the Sun coming out for a short yet strong innings. The Barbican Estate is "a residential estate that was built during the 1960s and the 1980s within the City of London in Central London, in an area once devastated by World War II bombings and today densely populated by financial institutions." (http://bit.ly/2Bh8Gex). It is a lovely example of Brutalist Architecture. "With its coarse concrete surfaces, elevated gardens and trio of high-rise towers, the Barbican Estate offered a new vision for how high-density residential neighbourhoods could be integrated with schools, shops and restaurants, as well world-class cultural destinations."

Today, more than ever, I am thankful to a lot of people who have been kind to us, in different ways. I pray that the sun shines upon all of you forever and enriches your lives, just like you have enriched ours. #delhi #shanghai #london #newadventures #explorechina #exploreuk #nonperiodicoscillations #bekind #thankful #sunshine🌞

Cranes (of the ornithological variety) are considered to be a symbol of happiness, good health, eternal youth and longevity. Can this symbolism be applied to cranes of the inanimate (or are they animate) variety? #london #newadventures #exploreuk #nonperiodicoscillations #CranesOfLondon #cranes #ornithological #symbolism

Hiding behind the blinds and staying very still was the only way to look at these beautiful birds from up close. Perks of being in the countryside. #london #newadventures #exploreuk #nonperiodicoscillations #fauna #birds #countryside #littlebealings #woodbridge

New city. New experiences. Glimpses from our walk through the city yesterday, filled with the sun blessing us intermittently while the cold wind froze our fingers. An unplanned walk through a lunch time pop up food market, and Brick Lane with its mouth watering food joints, graffiti, and hot chocolate apart from some interesting built, and unbuilt spaces. Is it normal to get excited by the sight of a tower crane, reaching out into the sky while holding onto the skeletal framework of an under construction building? #london #newadventures #exploreuk #nonperiodicoscillations #walk #sun #popup #food #bricklane #graffiti #chocolate #crane #construction
