Fish and Chips
Some cities just speak to you. Whenever you are there, you feel more alive and yourself and your whole world seems to be complete. This is how I feel about London. After studying abroad in 2003, I have this connection with the city, the restaurants, the alleyways, the parks and the people. I love the traditions and find myself happy whether it’s raining or sunny or wandering around one of the countless museums, standing at a play or eating my favorite fish and chips.
I also first saw Love Actually while in London in a huge theatre in Leicester Square. The movie has this energy- yes it’s about love and the story- but also about the city. For some reason, watching this movie while at home in Los Angeles (or where I may be), fills me with happiness I can’t otherwise describe. London is my love city. Here are 9 photos of Love…
