Date Thirty – The Hollywood Actor

September 30, 2013

So when I planned the final leg of this Challenge, I knew I was also planning my 30th birthday, and where I would spend the final days of my twenties. Los Angeles seemed like the perfect destination. At several points this Challenge has felt like a [...]

Date Twenty-Four – The Exhibitionist

September 17, 2013

Date Twenty-Three – The Oxford Blue

September 13, 2013

It’s interesting, because most of the time, it’s those outside of Oxford and Cambridge who would make the biggest deal about the ancient rivalry between the two universities. Most Oxbridge students were just happy enough to have made it [...]
