A Trip to London

I spent five days in London last week and wanted to tell you all a little bit about my experience!

In London, I've found there is always something new and exciting on and the best thing is that all you have to do is jump on the tube for 10 minutes and you can arrive relatively quickly to where you want to go.

In only five days I stayed super busy and went to (unexpected) fashion shows at London Fashion Week and presentations for men's fashion week, got my first tattoo, managed the tubes on my own, got escorted out and locked out of where I was staying, busked while drunk, ate the most delicious Thai food ever, saw David Gandy in the flesh and still managed to spend only £6.50 on the best night out I've had in a while.

I love the entire atmosphere and vibe I get from being in London and I must say, although it's busy and fast paced you will never be lost for something to do. I can appreciate the quietness when coming home to Wales but London is definitely somewhere that intoxicates you. I can imagine living there at some point during my life but while I'm a student I'm hopeful that I will be content living in Falmouth as London can also suck you of any money you have left in your pocket!

The 'Cityplanner' app on the app store saved all my troubles when it came to travelling and the tube as its so simple to use and so helpful when it comes to tube changes and stations. You learn a lot about how you can cope with city life but I feel like there is so much space for opportunity in London when it comes to art and networking.

Overall, I had the best time. I think it's all about preference and what you particularly like but it opens your eyes to how much you can do and achieve in the space of a few days and I personally admire any place that can do that.

(Oh.. and I wanted to recommend The Churchill Arms in Kensington Church Street for the best Thai food ever and some super sweet flower decor. You can have a meal for relatively cheap and it's delicious!!)
