Hey, it’s Christine!
Bit of a short vlog of a relaxing day trip.

Over the Bank Holiday weekend here in the UK, my friend and I decided to take a trip to Waddesdon Manor, a National Trust Property.

I am a classically trained architect, so I often go to these types of places to see in real life what I studied or used as precedent study for projects.

Plus, we had visions of dressing up and being a “Duchess for a Day,” I believe we were successful in that regard!

This country estate in Buckinghamshire, whilst owned by the National Trust, is actually managed by the Rothschild Foundation. It was built for Baron de Rothschild and served primarily as a weekend getaway.

Just imagine the dinner, the garden parties, and the gatherings in the Bachelor Suite (if you know, you know!). Currently it houses items on display from the Rothschild personal collection.

Pretty crazy that people used to live this way, huh? (and still do, though I would guess obviously not with a lot of furnishings from this period) What about you, are you a fan of these great country estates? Let me know what you think in the comments!


A new video will (mostly) be uploaded every Sunday at 5PM BST along with related mini vlog shorts.
