Having lived in London for 6 months, there are parts still wholly unexplored of this city, museums un-touched and entire neighborhoods un-tapped. Staying with our friend Matt in the East End gave me an entirely new and re-found love for London. A part of the city known for Brick Lane, near the river, but far enough away that the tourist culture does not pervade.
We made dark and stormy's to keep with the London theme, took the tube to Camden and saw a great Jazz band, danced the night away and came home to chocolate and Punjabi mix. The days were unseasonably, and unbelievably nice.
Vintage shopping at the Brick Lane market, a food frenzy at the Borough market. Veggie burgers, warm apple cider, a killer brownie. The food alone, the friendly people and the polite responses were enough to drive a woman living in Madrid giddy.
