London! Oh London! If i could I
would stay there forever!
Camden Town was on my list for quite
awhile now! So, this time I saw it and I kind of like it! Its quite different
to the rest of London I saw before! And that makes its special.
What I love to do in London is, watching a musical! If you want to do this, buy your tickets online OR search for a musical you want to watch and buy the tickets on the day you want to watch it at the theatre. Why? Well, normally they have some special offers for those still available tickets.
I love London and I am always saving
money so that I can visit my big old love of my life - the city I want to live
one day.
But this time I went there to
celebrate my 21st birthday with two of my besties! We did a lot and
with a lot, I 100% mean it that way!
Normally I would write down every
day separately but this time I guess it’s the best way to write it all down in
one.
London was beautiful, sassy,
amazing, polite and super cold! Yep it was freezing, and I can literally tell
you I was wearing two jumpers over two tees and a jack wolfskin jacket and over
a coat! Oh, totally forgot to mention the three pairs of socks as well as my
hat and scarf. As you can see it was freaking cold!
Oh, and there was a lot of snow!
But back to my lovely place and what
I did during my week in London:
Where to say:
I love staying at Canary Wharf its
actually my favourite place (well you will hear that sentences a lot during
this post – I am sorry^^) I love staying near the Thames! But this time as well
as the other times I was staying at a nice place between Paddington and
Bayswater (Hotel: The Queens Park). I really enjoy staying there because its
literally next to Hyde Park and Marble Arch! We had three undergrounds around
us and a lot of busses! Oh, and I love their breakfast a lot!
Where we ate:
Well it would be a lie if we weren’t
eating at subway every day because eating in London is expensive and not only
me but my friend love eating subway anyway! A place I am visiting every time is
the old Dutch! For all of you who do not know the old Dutch it’s a pancake
shop! Here I have to say a big thank you to my brother (check out his photos after reading my post ;) ) who found that pancake shop years ago! I am freaking love their pancakes!
How can someone go to London and not
eating fish and chips? Don’t ask me it’s a tradition for me to eat fish and
chips whenever when I am back in London. Besides I am always eating it at the
same place next to The Tower of London. It’s a very small and hidden restaurant
but if you found it and tasted their fish and chips you just can't go and never
come back! Here you can see where it is! *here*
Another tradition of mine is to go
to burger kind because I don't know why but I like their burgers a lot in
London maybe they use some other sauces?? Don’t ask me. But I like it!
Next tradition is a little
restaurant at coven garden! Everytime I am there I NEED to go and drink their
homemade lemonade! The best one I ever had! (Restaurant: Le Quotidien)
Tea time is a must(!!) In London and
I always have it at Patisserie Valerie!
What can I say but Costa have the
best hot chocolates ever!
For my birthday we went to PeggyPorschen. The cake was good, and we got some really Instagram worthy photos!
The best cuopcakes you can gte are at Lola`s Cupcakes!
Oh, there are so many places to go
to when you are in London and obviously you have to see the basics aka
Buckingham palace, Big Ben, Westminster, St. Paul Cathedrals, Tower Bridge and
so on!
But there are some extra bits that I
love to see:
I have never been to Primrose Hill
before and I have to say I really love that place! Not only because it’s a
little park where you have great view over London! A bonus is that you don’t
have to pay for this view! This place would be amazing during summer where you
can have a little picnic and enjoying the great view of London!

Harrods is one of the basic places
to go when you are in London but go and look at the neighbourhood, its so
beautiful!
If you like to see the bank district,
you have to go to Canary Wharf! I absolutely recommend it to everyone! And in
the summer, you can eat lunch/dinner or even breakfast next to the Thames! I wouldn’t
recommend during this in the colder winter days because it is very cold and
windy!
Hamley`s is a big toy shop! And maybe
as an adult you think that’s not for you! Well I can only disagree! This toy
shop is different, and I am always there when I am in London.
Leicester square is one of my
favourite places in London! Its next to the M&M shop but when you are
sitting in that little park next to the statue it feels like you are not in
London! Unfortunately, its only open during summer time!
Notting Hill! We walked by and it was crowded! Then I realised we found Notting Hill markets and that they are open on Saturday! Since there were so many people there I couldn’t take a picture! But I really recommend it to those who love vintage and antic things!
Oh, Covent garden! Also, one of my
fav! Covent Garden has a lot of history which I am not going through with you
now! But it still has its magic for me! If you are there you need to eat at Le Quotidien
and have a little dessert at Lola`s Cupcakes!
What I love to do in London is, watching a musical! If you want to do this, buy your tickets online OR search for a musical you want to watch and buy the tickets on the day you want to watch it at the theatre. Why? Well, normally they have some special offers for those still available tickets.
Well there is quite a lot of things
to do in London, but if you want to have a day trip to another city in England
there is also a blog post on my blog! *daytrip to Brighton*
