OUT AND ABOUT: THE CITY AND TOWER BRIDGE

Hello people! Here's another post featuring some pictures of London. Last Saturday I decided to get out of my cave and explore London with one of my flatmates. He loves skyscrapers so of course we went to The City to admire all the beautiful buildings. I personally love the Gherkin and the Shard so I enjoyed taking a lot a lot of pictures. 
We went to Sushisamba (38th floor) to take some pretty cool pictures of London's skyline and then we got kicked out because we couldn't take pictures with DSLRs, only with cell phones. Then we tried to go to the Sky Bar which is located at the top floor of one of the other skyscrapers (can't remember the name) but it was fully booked until March, yes, March. At that point we gave up and went to get a coffee at a caffe near the Tower Bridge.

OUT AND ABOUT: NOTTING HILL AND GREENWICH

Hello everybody! This past weekend I decided to explore London with  some friends as we had just finished our exams and didn't have anything to do. I think London is one of the most beautiful cities in the world and I'm so grateful to be able to live here, however, because I am here to go to uni I don't get to do much tourism as most of my weekends are spent trying to understand my lecture notes. 
If you've ever been to Notting Hill, you will know it's a lovely neighbourhood with colourful houses and a great market! I didn't buy anything as I think most things there are overpriced. But I did buy some food and it was all delicious. I had an amazing chocolate and pistachio tart but I was too hungry to take a picture...  








I then went to Greenwich North and Greenwich Park. I had never been there as it's a 35min tube journey from where I live and I couldn't be bothered. The views from Greenwich Park are breathtaking. You can see The City, the London Eye, Canary Wharf... all of London. If you live in London or happen to be here you should definitely go!
