Glasgow’s Southside is packed with tasty spots for everyone—vegan, non-vegan, and everything in between. You’ll find cosy cafés, bold global flavours, and loads of creative dishes inspired by different cultures. Whether you want a bright brunch, a spicy snack, or something sweet on the go, the Southside always has something exciting to try.

Just started running and officially obsessed. Turns out all I need is a supportive pair of budget-friendly trainers, a shirt that doesn’t cling, and a water bottle that actually fits my hand. Running slow, smiling big, and celebrating every tiny victory. Here are some stuffs that I found helpful for a beginner like me.

I’m originally from a tropical country, so my first real winter experience—during a trip to Amsterdam over ten years ago—was a whole adventure. I remember scrambling to find anything warm and stumbling upon a few gems that turned out to be total lifesavers. Fast-forward to today, living in a four-season country, and I’m still using them! Here are my favorite fall and winter picks—perfect for anyone from the tropics gearing up for their first winter trip, or anyone looking for cozy outfit inspiration.

Started reading as a kid and basically never stopped. If there’s a cozy corner and a good book, I’m there. I remember every weekend was a happy day going to book store or library and spending hours reading books.

I started detoxing my kitchen after realizing my old plastic containers and harsh cleaners weren’t helping my health. I switched to glass jars, a cast-iron pan, stainless steel and gentle cleaners like vinegar and baking soda. These small changes made the air cleaner and the space healthier—and I share this in case it helps anyone else who wants a simpler, safer kitchen without doing a full overhaul.
