I spent the past week going to Hidcote Manor, National Trust, every day. On this particular day, I write as the rain poured down but the magic remained.

Two of my favourite spots in Tokyo that are within walking distance of each other. The first is a beautiful traditional tearoom with modern finish, the second, a workshop style store brimming with handmade leather goods.

My Paris City Guide Vol. 3 - The spots I recommend, that I've been going to for 15+ years plus some new discoveries.
