It's Monday! Here's a picture of the Monday #solove acoustic trio you need to get behind at @switch_timbrex. xx 📸: @lousycameraman @thewhitedojo

Trying to make sense of this speeding train that is 2019. How is it September already?! I can't decide which I like better so here's both versions of me having a 🧠ache and 🦷ache. Thank you @lousycameraman for the snaps! 👊🏻

Pretty accurate illustration of my Wednesday nights since July, with many new things. New stage, new instrument - I'm playing the kit! (which explains my social hibernation as it's consumed my life now), new pics, new(ish) band - I do love this band so. 💙 And no, still no band name. Feel free to suggest one below! We play every Wednesday night @switch_timbrex come see us sometime! xx 📸: @lousycameraman @thewhitedojo

Checked out @tonehouse.sg opened by our friends Mah and Justin and did lotsa noodling around with the workwife in this splendidly done up space! Interiors by @aarkassociates is on point and the setup + gear here is sooo sweet! Congratulations @the____mah and @gulfofmeesoto ! 🎉Definitely booking this space for any rehearsals and jams in future. 👊🏻🤘🏻

Rome - a haiku: Eternal city, darn I almost saw the pope, Vatican City. 🤓 It's accurate what they say about Italy, if you love Rome, you will love it more down south cos it gets more "italian". I didn't throw a coin in the Trevi Fountain but I know in my heart I'll definitely be back. Ciao italia, grazie mille for everything you are. A presto! . #flyserenafly #nanax妈 #🇮🇹 #rome #vaticancity

Naples, you really caught me off guard. So badass – from dirty gritty streets and trains to glass filled seagull murdering back alleys to ancient palaces with vandalism, rotting windows and no budget for lighting. How did you charm me so? The dirty gritty streets had so much character, your heartbeat is strong. Your people were too warm and friendly and your food. Omg, your food. A French girl travelling with her mum came up to us to say, "you're in Naples, you have to just eat everything!" 🍕🍕🍕😱🥐🥟🍨🍮🌰🥧😱☕️☕️☕️ The espressos are manually hand pulled (last video)! It's a feel thing with Naples I tell you, definitely making it a comeback destination. . #flyserenafly #nanax妈 #🇮🇹 #naplesitaly #napoli_naples #napolipizza

Another ✅ off the bucketlist! I've always wanted to visit Pompeii since reading about it in school textbooks. It's astounding how much is preserved so perfectly (👉🏻 to see the amphitheatres, the 1st one even older than the Colosseum!) and how similar to us these Pompeians lived. Streets with bars and restaurants, mosaics with kinda a "beware of dog" sign, brothels with... 🙊🙈, houses and shops with ornately decorated rooms. Too bad Mt. Vesuvius veh shy hiding behind 🌧⛈🌦, but it gives me a reason to go back and climb it. I love southern #🇮🇹 so much! . #flyserenafly #nanax妈 #pompei #pompeiscavi

The story of Matera being European Cultural Capital of 2019 is truly one of an underdog. These Neolithic cave houses with fossils and seashells embedded within (because the whole area was the seabed in prehistoric times 👉🏻 for video), housed families of >10 living beings per cave *including* the farm animals. Everything was done in that tiny space; every family had a stamp for bread so you know whose 🍞 it was at the communal oven. Needless to say, the hygiene conditions were atrocious. Children died constantly and when the news broke, Matera was called the "shame of Italy" because this was still happening so recently in the 1950s. From the media attention, housing projects were developed nearby and the whole city was relocated – Matera was shamed, abandoned and now a ghost town. So to see it today as it is, you cannot help but feel the pride of its wonderful people in this rags to riches story. In all my travels I have never seen or felt anything like this. I urge you all to visit this magical place before it becomes another Santorini or Cinque, I am pretty sure that will not take long. . #flyserenafly #nanax妈 #🇮🇹#matera #materamazing #materacapitaledellacultura2019

M for Matera, Murgia and magic, cos we finally have blue skies! The stone houses and caves behind us have been inhabited since the Paleolithic Age; cavemen discovered this gorge and made their homes around it for the water and I suppose it carried on since the water kept flowing. This is the Murgia, Matera's National Park where you can get stunning views of the sassi (stone houses) district. AND we would never have made it here if not for friendly neighbourhood local hero Luciano who saved us so graciously by giving us a lift into town when we were lost and abandoned by my @airbnb host and the cab driver!!! There were also the men at the cafe who helped scold the 🚕 driver in italian when he drove off and the barista who attempted to call us the cab in the first place. ❤️ The warmth and sincerity of these ppl really made Italy so much more special. Grazie mille to everyone who helped us that hot sunny afternoon! Viva Italia! #🇮🇹 . #flyserenafly #nanax妈 #matera #murgiamaterana #materamazing #materacapitaledellacultura2019
