London Town

by arty_girl - last update: Dec 18, 2008

There's always something new to discover

I love London, every trip I have, I enjoy it. I visit my relatives out there very often and never seem to get bored of hopping on the underground and discovering new things, fantastic! I live in Belfast and for me to go there regularly, it doesn't cost much... in fact on my most recent visit the flights with Ryanair were only £10 return, madness! Generally I stay with family but this time I went with friends and stayed at one of the YHA Hostels, at St.Paul's Cathedral. I completely recommend it, check out my tips for more info.

Artyness

So, I'm an art student and to me, London is a hive of creativity... it has everything from amazing graffitti, artsy shops, museums and markets. For the arty shoppers out there, Camden Market is a must, as is Covent Garden... Once again, check out my tips which I'm constantly updating these days for more info. For Galleries, I love the Design Museum on Southbank and for breakfast, Giraffe restaurant chain is great, especially their museli bowl!

This is an image of myself and my university friends heading to the design museum... it's actually quite hard to find as you can come to it via so many different angles on the tube! We got there eventually and even saw a streaker on the way... oh my.

The Sites

Well London has many famous sites, I still appreciate them each time I go, in fact... I still find Big Ben & the Wheel exciting to look at. There's also the London dungeons, tower of london, tower bridge, buckingham palace and the millenium dome.
