Somehow I’ve officially been living this wonderful life in London for a full year now! I’m still not entirely sure where that year went as it seems like only yesterday I was arriving at Heathrow, fresh (OK, maybe a bit dusty and smelly) from the adventure of lifetime in India and ready to begin this new stage of my life. Right from day one London and me fitted together seamlessly, I took to the city in a way I didn’t think possible. Sure it can be ruthless at times but the good far outweighs the bad, London has basically ruined the idea of living in any other city for me because life here is just so damn amazing.
Each day I reminded of how very lucky it is that I get to called this city my home. Living here has allowed me to travel often, provided me with wonderful opportunities and brought some incredible people into my life. I’m 24 and already living my dream, that is definitely something to feel a wee bit proud of.
Coincidentally, today is also my birthday (I didn’t plan to arrive on my birthday, it turned out that way by luck! But it was certainly a fantastic way to begin my 23rd year). This year I’m spending the week exploring the Czech Republic, beyond that I’m not sure what the year ahead will bring but if it’s anything like the previous one then I am looking forward to every minute.
