Looking Back

Another new show I've been enjoying lately is Looking. I love shows that really reflect where they're filmed, and Looking makes San Francisco look so beautiful. Especially those amazing old wooden buildings.

I never got around to sharing any photographs from my trip to San Francisco. These are all way old now, but better late than never. Mr Meet-Cute and I spent two nights in San Francisco, and we packed a whole lot into that time. These were all taken around the Haight Ashbury on the afternoon before we flew home.








After living in Wellington for nearly ten years I was used to hearing the comparisons between the two cities, so it was awesome to finally visit San Francisco and see for myself how similar they are. These photos are also a few years old, from my old neighbourhood the last time I was in Wellington. My landlord was a colour consultant for dulux paints - dream job! She chose the colours for many of the houses in the neighbourhood, purple being a particular favourite.

Kerr blimey

Maranui Cafe in Lyall Bay, Wellington is one of the best places ever, and look: Miranda Kerr goes there! Kerr goes Kiwi, photographed by Orlando Bloom, details the couples time spent in New Zealand's capital while Orlando filmed the upcoming Hobbit film.

I lived in Wellington while the Lord of the Rings were shooting. It's such a small place that everyone there has stories about their brushes with the celebs. Mine is that Elijah Wood came into the cafe I worked at and I made him a cappuccino! This has been re-enacted by me a zillion times since.
