Things To Do When In London

I was off to London for a limited few days, spur of the moment, quick breathers. Occasionally, it is the best thing for people. You need a transformation in scenery and atmosphere; if not, you will drive yourself senseless. One thing I love about London is the flash of independence; everyone is rushing around you, doing their own thing without a care in the world. You don’t feel alone, as everyone else is sucked up in their own oriental bubble.

For bloggers getting away, it’s a great way to get some encouragement towards clothing, writing, travel writing, and noting down some thrilling moments.

London in May is always the greatest this time of year; the sun is streaming, people are out at Hyde Park, festivals are on the go, and individuals are sipping their Pimm’s and lemonade while blasting their top-charted tunes. As well, it isn’t as busy as it is during the summer.

When I travel to London, I usually engage in five activities. For one, go to Kings Cross (where my train enters from Edinburgh) and observe the Harry Potter section. As sad as that is. Every time I am back, the queue just gets extended!

Such a stimulating and unusual group of individuals; when attending a rock concert, you get the same kind of folk. They are known for their ripped jeans, messy hair, tattoos, and their unique style! With the Harry Potter scene, the outcome is unpredictable! Check it out the next time you are at King’s Cross. They even have a Harry Potter shop! How cool! Right, so putting my wand back to the next one!

CONVENT GARDEN

Where to begin with that? Colours, consistency, individuals, fine arts, and food—there is just something about this place that is like “Alice in Wonderland” about it. Something from a Tim Burton movie. It’s so effective, going from small vintage and upper-class markets to London streets with irreplaceable pubs.

I prefer reading a book and the thrill of flipping the pages to discover what awaits. Trust me, it is something that is always buzzing, not to mention the entertainment of streetwalkers, always doing something extraordinary and unexpected, worrying that you walk past the act and they shout out at you, although some may like that.

It’s also known as the crepe house! From strawberry to savoury, make your own crêpe for less than £5; it’s pink as well.

CAMDEN TOWN

That is all! It is a hub of creativity, chaos, delicious food, and vibrant markets! Never a dull moment, just off of the central line from the centre. You can’t go wrong; head towards Amy Winehouse’s home, 30 Camden Square, London NW1 9XA, United Kingdom, to the cute alley for random bargains and tattoos.

The stable markets with the history of what lay there before are a site that will leave your mind wondering.

Aside from the Cupcake Candy, David & Goliath is unique in that it has a tiny little store with fun and brightly coloured monster tees. I always buy something there, even if it eats up my lunch money! Store within the centre of the Garden Dome.

WOBBLY BRIDGE

The famous wobbly bridge is a landmark. Now, this is a vision. The bridge is near Tate Museum, a walk away from London Waterloo station and the London Eye. Such an unusual bridge with its way of structure, and when it’s enough, you can feel it move. Hint the name.

You can observe vistas of the Thames and people strolling by. Even in the rain, street performers perform, and the city’s fresh air and commotion are reassuring. Wait till boats pass, then raise your arm in a horn-blowing motion; they will respond.

It’s the little things that matter. In addition, several films, such as “What a Girl Wants” by Amanda Bynes and “Harry Potter”, have been filmed on the exact bridge.

It’s free and unique! Last but not least is returning to my former hometown of Weybridge, where I resided for five years and where I acquired and andlearnedt so much.

My initial position at Waitrose led to my acting and fashion studies at Brooklands College. Having met some wonderful people who I am still friends with, I usually return without question; a small train ride down from Waterloo station is a great refresher as you move away from London. Entering Weybridge. Weybridge boasts a single main street, local shops, and flashy, costly automobiles. This place is perfect for a vacation. Take pleasure in the country lane and drive around and away from the city shopping centres.

There are beautiful churches and hiking trails through the woods. At this time of year, strolling along the Thames and stopping at the Swan Hotel or Weir for a pint in the sun while seeing the passing boats is a lovely activity.

WEST END SHOWS

On another quick note, one thing I try to do when I am down is to see a theatre, which is just something I love and leave with a memory of excitement and craving! The last show I watched was “The Woman in Black”, which took place at Convent Garden Theatre, a small and haunted venue.

It was such a spine-chilling and incredible performance with only a box and a few props. The best thing to do is head to Leicester Square when you arrive and check out that day’s latest and cheapest performances! The last minute is sometimes the best. Hint is what I am doing at this moment.

I’m currently sitting in my wee corner, listening to music, eating food, and drinking wine, watching the green fields and buildings slowly appear as I enter England. Sit back and relax. There’s always something to engage in, and there’s never a moment of boredom!
