Eating in Venice 2019

Korean Street Food at its best!! We read on the flyer…

Whilst off I was watching a Youtuber who has a facebook group for fitness challenges and they were starting 80 day obsession from the beginning of March, so I joined the group and it’s been brilliant. I mean it’s hard, actually scrap that it’s really bloomin’ difficult. Some of the positions they expect you to get into a contortionist might struggle with. I have been introduced into a world…
