alessandrawhite@alessandrawhite just finished a 3.03km walk, that lasted for 35 minutes.
This walk helped alessandrawhite burn 268.0 calories.


Description from Strava: After loading out of Tokenize:LDN for Hive, my friends all headed back home, including bitterirony@bitterirony who flew back to Boston to the sub-zero Fahrenheit temps and snow.

It was a beautiful transition that I enjoyed a lunch at Laos Cafe with my bestie from D School before a night’s rest at the Bankside Hotel, near the Tate Modern.

With brekkie the next morning I got a glimmer of my work that lay ahead. I rolled up sleeves and never left the hotel to see the mod museum as planned.

It seemed a bit expensive to sit working along the River Thames, so I did some research to find a really good but less expensive hotel to stay for a few days while I get caught up with creativeworkhour@creativeworkhour and Hive post.

Turns out the best Marriott hotel in the UK right now for a song is the AC Hotel Glasgow. I’d just recently stayed at an AC in Portsmouth, New Hampshire for ECamm Live’s Creator Camp along with drmelanie@drmelanie & gretchenshepherd@gretchenshepherd , so I knew it’d be good.

Turns out that the train that far North was cheaper than my getting back to Leeds. So, an hour later after the idea I was on my way. Yes, I edited the Tokenize photos the entire 5 hour ride!

Now in Glasgow, the city is Christmas-lit and its citizens are celebrating the season with gift exchanges all through the massive lobby bar and lounge.

I’ve done some walking, it mostly I’m head down working on the post (I could be the slowest writer you know).

With luck the photos render on the &strava2hive integration. I love it when it does!!

The first photo is in the direction of of Glasgow where I can explore the Christmas Market.

The second photo describes how I begin my career as a Clarinet Busker! 😂

About the Athlete: Alessandra's made some cray-cray changes and set new goals in her life recently. One of those is to improve my enjoyment of being fully human (or feline works, too) and to highten my senses with imagination and wonder.
