Everyone would certainly agree with executive producer Jeff Jensen who describes new Disney’s live action film Tomorrowland A World Beyond ‘a quintessential Disney movie’. Even before hearing Jensen say that, I very much felt the same about Tomorrowland. What does it mean ‘a…
It’s wrong to believe that only money can buy top entertainment. The best kind of fun is usually free. Chelsea Flower Show is surely amazing but it could be both challenging and expensive with kids without even taking into account that it is all set up and not a wild environment.
Simple activities without spending a fortune in London seem rare to find but in Spring the parks are amazing and…
Twenty-four hours without flicking a switch. Going without electricity might not seem like a challenge but it is surprisingly difficult and makes you realise how much we take electrical devices for granted. The idea is to not turn on anything electrical for 24 hours – that’s from the moment you wake up until the moment that you go to bed! This project was extracted from 100 Family…

Netflixdocumentary series Chef’s Tablefollows various world’s chefs in their culinary journey. The first one is my favourite of the group, Italian Chef Massimo Bottura. He mobilised masses using social media when two earthquakes hit his hometown Modena in May 2012.
