Californication

>> I’m back in my happy happy place in Los Angeles (and beyond) with a proper holiday that has involved several days of not using any data on my phone.  I literally just checked and no mega bytes have been notched up for over 24 hours, which is a novelty for me.  In addition there has been much poolside listening of Woman’s Hour, turning up of Jamie xx/Adorn/Yumi Zouma in the car and happy hammock swinging.  I wasn’t going to post much this week but the colours of LA, Palm Springs and the Yucca Valley high desert, along with the corresponding attire, have been building up so much so that it pictures of me wearing bikini briefs and a coat edged with the word “Swim” wouldn’t make have made much sense, if I had waited to return to London.  The theme of my summer suitcase has been the brighter the better, as well as adopting an unusually reduced level of layering, to combat the 38 degree temperatures out in the desert.  As a stop gap to normal posting duties, I give you some snapshots of my temporary state of Californication..

  3. Welcome Back Susie! It’s so refreshing to see visitor photos of L.A. (and its environs’) oddities and wonders. There’s so much to California, that even as a native, I’m still surprised. Have a wonderfl time. Watch your water usage and please spend $$. We like that here. 🙂

  6. Wow your photos are always so artistically beautiful! Love the bright colors you’re wearing, really compliments the scenery here in sunny california.
