From the moment we landed our feet on trusted English soil, your spirit and bright lights called out to us. Adrenaline rushed through our bodies as we immediately felt the hustle and bustle of the city. Surrounded by independent thinkers with larger-than-life imaginations, we could feel the endless possibilities and opportunities.

The shy English sun was happily beaming around us as we took a stroll down the Thames. Embracing the endless cityscape and gazing at the iconic buildings and landmarks riddled with history. It made us feel small and big at the same time. Sounds of laughter, shades of life, and the Beatles were gallantly ringing through our open ears, inciting and inviting us in.

Our curiosity sparked, wondering what we would meet as we turned each corner of your magnetic city. We experienced over two centuries of architectural marvels. New and old, every stone has a tale to tell. It made us want to scream out our own story and hope it would intertwine with all that has been.

As we wandered down Kensington, we found ourselves on a narrow lane with a cobbled road and a magnificent entrance archway. It felt as if we had stepped right into the world of a Jane Austen novel, and suddenly there was nowhere else we needed to be.

Except of course, the quaint pub on Camden Street adorned with British flags, draped in greenery and colorful floral arrangements. Where we were offered the finest Sunday roast and a crate of locally brewed beer. Sat in front of the fireplace, we dreamt of our next visit.

Until then, thank you London for your warm welcome. Your unique charm is what separates you from any other European city.

Your streets are mapped but passions uncharted..
