Cheeky D's 21st

My good American friend Cheeky D, a.k.a Daniel Gasparini finally turned 21! Cheeky D being a wild one at heart, meant it was only fitting we celebrated in an over the top crazy fashion. We started with drinks and a bite to eat at Elephant Bar, then headed over to our local hookah bar, Bisla's. When it hit midnight and he turned the Big 2-1, I lead the way and sung him the Aussie Birthday Song. He managed to skull his entire drink before we even finished the "siiiip" part of the finale. He puts every Aussie to shame, as I have never seen anyone actually finish skulking their drink in this song before! Such a great night, meeting new people and spending it also with the ones I already know and adore. I am lucky to have found a group of friends here in America that I feel so at home with. Much Love - D -

Lake Tahoe

Lake Tahoe was spectacular. The views were absolutely breath-taking. We planned to just have a play on the sand and a dip in the water but we were lucky enough to be able to do some water sports to. Some people overheard the Aussie accent as I was conversing with my friend Lou, and before we knew it, we were invited to go out on the water with our new found friends Bill, Cyrus and a few more. Tubing was amazing, but holding on that tight definitely gave me jelly arms and a shaky hand for a good few hours after! I was determined not to get dumped in the water... and I didn't. Such a relief. We all got pretty sunburnt but it was totally worth it! Great view, great day, great company. We left on such a high. Much Love - D -

Hiatus don't hate us

I have been a little bit quiet. Apologies for the hiatus. But don't worry my silence doesn't mean anything I am still just as much in love with America as my previous post! My love stems not just from the fact that Solestruck can ship free to my US address but more so it is based on the American people that are so beautiful and the endless list of things you can do here! Since my first exploration of San Francisco, I have been back again, I am just obsessed. There is something about the climate, the shopping and the pastel painted lady houses that has stolen my heart and it won't give it back! It's a trusty keeper of my heart though, at least I know it doesn't possess the capabilities to break it. Much love - D -
