I Spent A Month In London, These 9 Things Blew My Mind
Was my dream city worth the exceptionally high cost?
Millions of people visit London every year.
It’s a city that’s steeped in the kind of character and charisma that very few places in the world will give you.
But I went woefully underprepared. I was in culture shock for a good few weeks after getting there.
I wish someone had told me these things about London before I visited.
#1 Everywhere is beautiful
This was the first image I clicked in the city.
Normally, you have to make a city look aesthetic in pictures. Like — sure many cities have breathtaking beauty but only if you show the good parts, you know?
London is different.
You can just open your phone camera, click a random picture to show someone where you are and they’ll be blown away by how good the city looks.
Everywhere you look, you’ll see aesthetic beauty.
#2 Most people look good
Brits are known to be incredibly well-dressed.
But London takes it a notch higher.
