The uncanny good weather is making it very difficult to dislike London. The first time I turned up on this side of the world was in December, it rained every day, windy and the chill in the air seemed to enter my bone everytime I stepped out. London in summer, is quite simply glorious. My… Continue reading London Summer

Living life in London

London now
I doubt you would believe me if I say that the sky is blue for almost the entire week so I’ll show you instead. Along with the sky are ofcourse topless British men showing off their very pasty white chests for the world to see. Still can’t quite believe that a week ago I was… Continue reading London now

Then it’s over
It finally arrived, my last day at work and I never really had an idea on how I would feel at this moment, so what I did felt at the end of the day a mixture of relief, happiness, sadness and awe is not at all what I expected. Everyone was just sooo nice and… Continue reading Then it’s over
