If you want a great and relatively inexpensive way to see a lot of the city’s architecture and street life, I’d go on a canal tour. learn So many cool facts about the city without having to walk everywhere :) I’m also very partial to the coffeehouses, but that’s probably because I don’t drink and live in the US. Nothing beats a chill smoke sesh in a little cafe with a bev and some company!

Go down to Brick Lane on Saturday or Sunday for the vintage market, it’s huge! Skip hotel breakfast and get a bagel from Beigel Bake while you’re there Camden Market is where everyone goes. There’s lots of cute stalls and plenty of indie stores between the tourist traps. Try to go during the week because it can get overwhelming with people Take advantage of the free (yes 100% free) museums! V&A is a must, especially the costume wing National Gallery/National Portrait Gallery is also nice Also, cannot emphasize enough to only eat ethnic food while you’re there and eat as much as you can Dishoom (if you can’t get a dinner res just stand in line for lunch) is still a top 3 meal of all time for me Try and get a res at Darjeeling Express! Chef Asma Kahn and her all-women run kitchen were featured on Chefs Table if you want to get to know her and the restaurant better and cry so much Zima is a v cute Russian spot in SoHo with cafe vibes and cool art If you’re a garlic girlie, Garlic and Shots is right around the corner and has, yes, so many different shots you can take and so much good bar food with garlic There’s also a casual Sri Lankan food place called Hoppers on the same block Seriously, forget about going out of your way for British food. You’ll be disappointed every time If you ever want to get out of SoHo, walking is so rewarding and there’s a ton a cute things to see. Also, the train is super easy (you can just use your phone to tap in and out now) if you want to explore other neighborhoods further out

- DO NOT MISS the Louisiana Museum. I loved it and I don’t care that much about museums. Beautiful grounds and iconic exhibits!!! - Explore the shops in Nþrrebro (if you don’t like kitschy/artsy shopping then maybe not) - See link for my biggest rec!! Community dinner in a converted church, random seating to meet locals, cheap price tag!!!!

I really love feeling clean. But I also hate falling asleep with wet hair. But I can also just wear a beanie in the morning. And I know I won’t shower tomorrow if I put it off tonight. I want to feel clean.
