Driving the road to Hana on Maui's east coast. A long lingering road with curves, bridges and every now and then stunning views over the Pacific ocean. Don't forget to stop at the Garden of Eden, one of the most beautiful views on Maui. The garden is most popular for its debut in 'Jurassic Park,' where the opening sequence of the movie was filmed, specifically the Keopuka 'Jurassic Park' Rock which can be seen from one absolutely gorgeous lookout inside the garden.

A couple of weeks ago, tucked away down the longest driveway ever, we found our favourite NGS garden so far. Rolf’s Farm is a magically wild and rambling place, a place where roses tumble over walls and fences, where deep red and pale pink scabious dance atop the long grasses in the waist height meadows

Lead photograph taken in Philedelphia by Jeff Weisberg Today I opened my computer and typed in my chosen search words of the day: "abandoned greenhouse". Little did I know how many photographs I was about to scroll through. So many, too many! Why is that? Surely we still all eat greens and enjoy

Faye Toogood, the London-based interiors stylist and creative consultant, has designed exhibition stands for Tom Dixon, windows for Liberty, displays for Dover Street Market, and sets for Wallpaper. But in all of her career, she’s had only one job interview. At the tender age of 21, having just graduated from Bristol University with degrees in fine art and art history, Toogood was called for an interview with Min Hogg, legendary founding editor of the British design bible The World of Interiors. “I had found out about a stylist job and decided I would go for it, even though I didn’t even know what that meant,” says Toogood. “I went in and it was the strangest thing. She asked me, ‘Can you sew, and can you tie a bow?’ I actually couldn’t sew, so I lied and when I got the job, I had someone do it for me.”

Famous trees come and go. L'Arbre du Ténéré was once considered the most isolated tree on Earth, a landmark on caravan routes in the Sahara, until it was knocked down by a drunk Libyan truck driver in 1973. This year in August, the famous Anne Frank tree in Amsterdam was blown down by high winds dur

It's time to travel back to Andalusian sun - at least in my thoughts. Nearby village of Benalmadena Pueblo is one of those famous Andalusian white villages. It's not much of a tourist attraction, which is why it has remained a lot quieter and idyllic than, say, Mijas Pueblo. It's nice to walk there though and take in the village charm. We got there in time to witness the drive through the village of historic car society. The sense of community that lives on in these small villages is so evident here. People gather on the pavements catching up. The air is thick with kisses being planted on cheeks left and right. Another thing that becomes clear is the loyalty people have for their restaurants. They frequent the same restaurants year after year. Everybody seems to know everybody and customers are greeted like long-lost family members. The best restaurant in the village is in the Hotel La Fondan which has really upped their game. Only a couple of years ago the food along with the service was very bland. Now it's even warranted a recommendation in the Michelin guide. We sat down in my favourite restaurant in the village - small and traditional tapas bar on Avenida del Chorrillo. Not so surprisingly I just had to have some croquetas. These had meat in them. And just as I was busy patting myself on the shoulder, congratulating myself on having learnt ordering in a restaurant so proficiently, the inablility to actually understand any Spanish came biting back - albondigas, the meatballs, came with curry sauce. Habas con jamón isn't much to look at, but surprised with its taste. Taquitas, serrano ham chunks used in cooking lent the fava beans so much flavour. These I will have to make at home too!
