Chantal's Hollywood Adventures

Hello my lovely readers,  So, the other day I was with my best friend and her fiancé and we were talking about the difference between dating in Los Angeles and dating in Britain. Whilst spending the last year in LA I had a bit of a whirlwind in the dating department and realised that many of my dates were misconceived by what dating a British girl means. Now really it shouldn't make a difference where you're from right? but, from my experiences and from many of my British friends, there definitely seems to be different rules and ideas on what it means to date a Brit.  Here I've written a little fun blog on 11 tips to consider before you go out into the big wide world and date a British woman. Enjoy :) 1. Don't make fun/mimic her accent. As I've learnt from dating in LA, it's not fun when your date spends the whole night mimicking your accent because 'it sounds funny and posh' . Please stop, we've heard it all before, its not...

Hey guys, I hope you're all having a great and not still feeling the Monday blues. After sharing my last dating adventures with you all, I have decided to share another little dating story with you. So, here goes. On Halloween last year, I went to a Frat party on USC Frat row and met this Persian guy who I spent most of the night chatting to. He seemed like a nice guy and was in his last year majoring in business. I should have probably seen the signs from the beginning as his costume was a shirtless Channing Tatum from Magic Mike, but we got along quite well and after all it was Hall0ween. I could see that he had a little bit of arrogance about him but it was nothing that I couldn't handle. After the Frat party, we spoke for about a week before he asked me out on a date. He picked me up from my apartment and we drove to a bar in downtown LA. Whilst on our drive he starts off the conversation by saying "so...your’e one of those Brits ain't you?", ...

Hello my lovely readers, This blog is definitely way overdue and from now on I will make sure that I start updating it more often. Everything in LA has been so crazy that it's been difficult to keep up. I have now been living in LA for almost two months and I absolutely love it here. Every week is a new adventure. Last week I went to the Disney Hall in downtown LA to experience the work of classical musician Stravinsky with a very good friend of the family. It was an amazing experience, I have always taken an interest in classical music but was never something I had experienced live before, so this was definitely something different and new for me. This not something I would have really had the chance to see back home so it was nice to try explore something different. I enjoyed it so much that I was luckily enough to have the opportunity to attend another classical concert in Glendale, which was put on specifically to raise money for underprivileged children. It was a lovely ex...
