Bordeaux in 365 Bottles: May 2017
It’s ironic I write my latest edition of Bordeaux in 365 Bottles today. Because exactly eight years ago today, Tim, Emma, Angel and I started our journey to move to Italy.

Bordeaux in 365 Bottles: April 2017
Hello, May! I’m not sure what happened to April. It was like I blinked, it was over and it was time for another Bordeaux in 365 Bottles. If you read my March update, you know I was feeling pretty down and out. Quite of few of you got in touch with me about it. As […]
