Down Time

When you're a freelancer, like me, it's important to find the time, and money, if at all possible, to go on holiday.

So here are some photos from my recent trip to Italy. In unrelated news, I am now basically made out of cheese, booze and coffee.

And yes, as the last picture shows, I bought some things. Nice things. Yum.

Talking of things, here's another - I'm knock-down, drag-out, thrilled to announce that my hit (can we say hit? I mean people really seemed to like it in Edinburgh, and lots of them came, and critics said very nice things, so, ok, lets say hit) new one man show "Showman" will have a London run in the West End as part of the London International Mime Festival. I can't wait.

You can get info about it, book tickets, and see all the other amazing companies who are part of the LIMF2014, right here. Spread the word!

Oh, and one more thing. I know what you're thinking. You're thinking "Mat Ricardo is the kind of slightly off-kilter, OCD-ish person who documents his addictions like a weirdo - I wonder if he took photographs of every single espresso he drunk while in Italy.."

Well, you're in luck, my friend. You're in luck..

Full disclosure: Number 3 is a hot chocolate. And number 10 was the best.
