Being a tourist in my own city
I usually brings friends visiting from overseas to Dempsey Hill, where there’s lots of cafes and is the perfect setting for catching up with dear friends. PS Cafe is great for their truffle fries and cake, while White Rabbit, housed in a beautifully restored chapel, is a romantic environment for an intimate dinner.
What is your most memorable weekend?
I love spending the weekend with a good book.
Where’s the best place to enjoy the early morning/recover from the night before?
I enjoy a brisk walk in the Botanic Gardens.
