  • Welcome to London. Inverness Terrace

    My hostel is right behind Hyde Park on a lovely street with a lovely name. The weather is chilly but the people are so warm. I was given directions twice without even asking and a guy yelled "Bless you, lady" from across the street when I graced the UK with my alergy sneezes for the first time.Read more

  • Museums. Natural History Museum

    Kids love this place and it's easy to figure out why. Aside from the huge dinosaur skeleton in the main hall you can find almost any animal you can think of - well, the taxidermy version of it.
    I particularly loved the Birds Hall where you can see more than 400 species of hummingbirds in one single glass case.Read more

  • Museums. Victoria & Albert Museum

    V&A is history in itself. You get to have a glimpse of how the Victorians saw and studied the world. Aside from that, the amazing Asia collection and the massive Weston Cast Hall really stuck with me.

  • Landmarks. Buckingham Palace/Green Park

    Checking out the Queen's crib 😎 The guards look like bears in an exhibit but it's somehow humorous that so many people gather there just to see them pace back and forth.
    The beautiful ironworks made the walk there worthwhile given that I was 7 hours late for the Changing the Guard. 💂Read more
