Reasons I am beginning to adore London


1. Tea is available everywhere all the time. One English breakfast please. 

2. The food is amazing. You can walk into a restaurant and be amazed, even if you haven't checked its reviews or ratings on trip advisor

3. The tube is clean and efficient. Love the plush seating on some lines. 



4. Peoples propensity for being polite appeals to my innate apologetic nature. No longer do I feel sorry for saying too many sorrys. 

5. There is history everywhere.

6. Prince George.

7. It's a melting pot of culture. In little under two days I have had interesting conversations with a guy from Jamaica planning to open a restaurant serving West Indian food in Goa and a Sri Lankan who speaks Tamil and had many insights on the political situation in his country. 

8. Miss selfridge, top shop, Hamleys, boots, marks and spencer candy

9. Landmark hotel. Enough said. 

10. A city on the banks of a river has a charm to it. Budapest, Prague, Banaras, Frankfurt, and of course London.
