🇬🇧 8 stops, 1 epic London trip —

(Saving this itinerary for anyone planning their London era)

1. Buckingham Palace
Started with the obvious — because apparently a London trip required a royal appearance from me. 😌

2. Trafalgar Square
Took in the big lions, bigger history, and enough crowds to remind me I wasn’t the main character.

3. The National Gallery
Spent some time surrounded by centuries of art — casually pretending I knew exactly what I was looking at.

4. Big Ben
Had seen it in a thousand pictures, but standing in front of it finally gave me that “yep, I’m in London” moment.

5. London Eye
Didn’t go up — just stood in front of it looking appropriately touristy while the iconic wheel did all the heavy lifting. 😎

6. Tower Bridge
Finally saw the postcard view in real life — and yes, it was every bit as dramatic as expected.

7. Soho
Walked through one of London’s most colourful and energetic neighbourhoods — loud and lively.

8. Chinatown
Ended up surrounded by colors, crowds and food everywhere — a pretty great way to wrap up the day.

And then… just walking around London
Because sometimes the best part of the trip is having nowhere to be and simply taking the city in.
