Becoming A Local
It’s official, I’m in London! I’ve been here for about a week and a half now and my goodness, I’m in love. For the duration of my six weeks here, I’ll be living in Camden Town, which is a lively town full of good music, good food and really cute shops. Camden Town is most…

Getting around the city is so much easier than I had originally anticipated thanks to the London Underground,…
Settled into the Motherland
