some of my favorite things about London are:
- walking: most people do not have a car and if they do they don't drive it in London. i have never had to walk so much in my life nor have i ever enjoyed it as much as i do here.
- fresh markets: there are infinite markets in this city. i LOVE it! i love going to the market on a regular basis so that we can eat fresh and delicious fruits, vegetables, breads, etc.
- architecture: i am obsessed with 90% of the buildings i see. they have so much character and detail and are simply just beautiful. even the newer modern buildings have a distinct edge, it is not just cement and steel, they have a unique design.
- museums: this city is chucked full of museums, most of them are free too! you will never have a boring day with nothing to do in this city. the history is so rich in this part of the world and is so intriguing to learn about.
- taxi cabs and phone booths: we all can recognize a british taxi cab or phone booth when we see it. i wouldn't ever think that i would adore or appreciate seeing a phone booth or silly taxi, but i do in this great city.
- fashion: i wish i had a bottomless bank account because this is the fashion capital of the world. they have some of the most amazing shops here. you can wear anything in this city and it will be appreciated by someone. i love that people don't feel fearful about the judgement of others as i think they do in more conservative places. if you want to try out a new look with confidence-this is the place to do it.
- central location: once in london or most big european cities, you can get anywhere in the world.
