082 - Brighter Days 😎
Sure, we’ve had some slices of sun here and there these last few weeks, but for the most part, it’s been dull and grey. To lighten it up, we figured it was a good time for a list of London’s brightest spots.
Warm up with botanicals 🌿
Wander through the light-filled and climate-controlled Heeman’s Garden Centre, and bring a few plant babies home to brighten up your own space.
Sun salutations 🧘♀️
Stretch into your week with Museum London’s Yoga Sunday’s and one of London’s finest views overlooking the Forks.
Turn on the art 🎨
Looking to meditate on light and life? Read up on London artist Jack Chambers’ silver paintings, or picture yourself at the beach while gazing at Lake Huron No.3. Too puzzling? Try these.
Catch some rays 🌇
Opt for some of the prime window seating at the Covent Garden Market, Reset Social Cafe or the Central Branch of the London Public Library.
Take a lap outdoors ⛸
Have you noticed outdoor skating rinks popping up in your neighbourhood? It doesn’t get more Canadian than bundling up and skating in the sunshine.
Go neon 🕶️
New subscriber? This time last year we did . We’re also happy to hear plans are in the works to turn the old Hudson’s sign back on!
BONUS: OMG! For a mere $100, one can bring “the light of the world” home with this pair of Holographic Jesus images.
