Living the London Life
So I have officially been living in Central London for about two weeks now. I have limited wifi at my apartment so it has taken me a while to get some posts up! The place I am staying is in a great location right by a tube stop which makes it incredibly convenient to get pretty much anywhere in the city. It took me a few days to do so but I now feel quite comfortable taking the tube around the city. As long as you avoid the rush hours from 7-9 am and 5-7 pm then you are good to go! I have gone to a few nice restaurants within the Covent Garden area of London and also cook for myself a lot at home to save some extra money. As far as sight seeing goes I have already seen so much of this wonderful city in such a short time. I have gone up in the London eye, toured Parliament, walked across the Tower Bridge, visited the plague village of Eyam, been to Trafalgar's Square, visited the London Museum, visited the Florence Nightengale Museum, and road a few of the famous double decker buses. Needless to say I have been busy! Overall I am loving the city of London thus far. It is amazing how many different people you come across within one city. There are so many different languages and cultures all over London. The London fashion has also been very interesting to adjust to as well, but it has been fun to look so nice everyday here. Flats are a necessity and flip flops are not the way to go here. But let's just say I will be excited for some gym shorts and a sweatshirt by the time I get home! There is so much left for me to do in this amazing city and in such a short time span. I am planning on visiting the Tower of London this week as well as Notting Hill, which is one of my favorite movies. As my journey continues I will keep the updates coming. Good bye for now from the UK!
