London is one of my favourite places to visit. I love the feeling you get when you're there. Can't really explain it.. that's probably something you have to see for yourself.
The first time I visited I was 16 or 17 and still in school. Since then I visit London almost every year.
The shopping is great, of course. But the nightlife and the food is also something you have to try!
Last time I went to London, my best friend and I discovered The Breakfast Club. We actually only wanted to go there once, but after we tried the pancakes we had to come again the next day, and the day after that. We honestly went there every single day of the week. Definitely try the "Avocado and poached egg", my absolute favourite!
For shopping, I always look forward to Topshop. The one at Oxford Circus is so big that you can spend all day in it. There's even a hair dresser and cafe in it. Heaven for all girls..
At night, I really enjoyed the Electric Ballroom. But there are so many clubs you can go to. Just try them all out! ;)
What you should not miss of course is the Camden Market! Definitely try to go there on a sunday, that's when there's a lot more than on any other day. You can get nearly everything there and it's the best thing to do on a hangover day..
Another market you shouldn't miss is the Portobello Market on saturday's. Comes right after Camden on my personal list.
And for all you Harry Potter Fans like me: At Kings Cross they built Gate 9 3/4 where you can take pictures (I have only an old one for you). And the Warner Bros Studio Tour is also something you should visit as a true Harry fan. You can see the original filmsets and you can drink Butterbeer (not as tasty as I imagined, but hey, you can keep the cup)!
Another activity I can recommend, is going to a musical. There are so many of them but this year was our first time that we actually went to one. We saw "Rock of Ages" and it was so much better than we expected! So funny! If you have the chance, go watch it!
So, as you can probably tell, my love for London is big.. too big for my wallet probably. But i'ts worth spending all the money. Never had a bad time in this city!
