I've covered bedrooms, lounges, bathrooms and more, so I thought it was about time I picked a kitchen for my monthly 'Room Envy' post. There are so many wonderful ideas in this beautiful space, which sits in an airy, light-filled Stockholm apartment. The dark units mix classic lines with a contemporary matt finish, and they're offset by sparkling Carrara marble counters. The striking brass . . .
Iceland | The south coast, Vík & Jökulsárlón
More from our recent adventures in Iceland today. After our stay at the wonderful Ion Hotel, we headed southeast towards the little coastal town of Vík. Our journey began in crisp sunshine, and we meandered slowly along Route 1 (the ring road which encircles the entire country), past snow-covered plains and farmsteads which resembled dolls’ houses against the towering peaks. . . .

Iceland | Ion Hotel & the Golden Circle
From the Blue Lagoon, we headed east along empty roads towards the mountainous interior. We soon learned that driving anywhere in Iceland was going to take us much longer than expected – partly because of the snowy conditions (I’m very glad we hired a 4x4), and partly because we ended up stopping every few minutes to marvel at yet another amazing view. Eventually, we descended into a wide . . .
