I can't believe my time in London is half-way over. More than half actually. I have really, truly learned to love living here and I can see myself moving back in the future. Mainly, my thoughts and feelings about this whole experience have calmed down a lot, and my view of London has become very similar to my view of North Carolina (which I guess is a good and a bad thing). I have my routines and my personal favorites. I can give people directions, and recommend restaurants, and I can get to many of the places I'm going without looking at the tube map. My favorite moments are those times when it hits me that I'm actually living in London, and I get that wide-eyed wonder all over again. And then that wonder turns into panic because I feel like there's still so much that I haven't done! This city consistently meets my expectations with how much I enjoy the places I always go and the things I always do, and with how much fun I have exploring to try new foods and routes. I love just getting lost and seeing how I can get home from wherever I am. (I mean, I always have my google maps, but for the most part I just wander.) I'll end on one last fun note. I started compiling these lists of things I like about England vs. North Carolina...what do you think?

AuthorI am a September baby, which may be the root of my love for fall. I love dark chocolate, popcorn, and I do actually like brussel sprouts. I'm the kind of person that listens to a Christmas song in September. (But only one. I don't want to ruin the ~magic~). Archives
