In this episode, Fernando invites you on a journey through London's Barbican Centre, the awe-inspiring fortress of culture that rose from the ruins of World War II. We’ll navigate through the Barbican’s concrete jungle, laugh about the maze-like corridors that have bewildered many, and experience a world-class theatre performance.
This is no ordinary day out; it's a personal narrative entwined with the history and art that pulse through this brutalist marvel.
Join us as we traverse from the tarmac of Biggin Hill Airport to the heart of the city's art scene for an unforgettable day out. We’ll take you through the quickest routes and even tease the luxurious option of arriving by helicopter.

Embark on a journey through time and intellect as we trace the cobbled streets of Cambridge. In the company of airplane pilot, Fernando Pinho, we traverse the hallowed halls where legendary minds like Isaac Newton and Alan Turing once roamed, exploring the city's contribution to the world with its 70 Nobel laureates. As we navigate the picturesque lanes by bike, breathe in the scholarly air and ascend the steps of St. Mary's Church tower for a view that encapsulates the city's essence.
This episode is more than a simple tour; it's a narrative woven with the threads of Cambridge's unique charm, from the luxurious University Arms Hotel to the whimsical Dinky Doors that beckon with their miniature wonder. We reflect on the poignant tributes at the Cambridge American Cemetery and Memorial.
If you're looking for adventure with family or friends, this episode is packed with great suggestions for a weekend getaway.
