Two Museums for the Price of None
Two free museums, one beautiful park and a day spent questioning how we experience history. A visit to V&A East and V&A Storehouse proves Stratford is one of London’s most rewarding cultural destinations.

Starting Again (Again!)
The bipolar brain demanded another grandiose reset, so here we are. An empty website, a fresh start, and a promise to stop waiting for perfection. Stories, reviews, photos and, inevitably, the occasional poor financial decision.
Hi, I’m Colin.
Curiosity has always been one of my defining traits. It’s also got me into trouble once or twice.
These days, I’m an award-winning journalism student based in East London, spending far too much time wandering around museums, theatres and neighbourhoods looking for stories worth telling. Usually the free ones.
It hasn’t always looked like this.
My twenties were messy. Really messy. I spent years making decisions that damaged my future more than they helped it. Somewhere along the way I realised I had two choices: keep collecting regrets or start collecting stories.
I’m trying very hard to do the second one.
This website is where that curiosity ends up. You’ll find reviews, photography and the occasional personal piece when life gives me something worth writing about.
