      And did you mention waterloo bridge? As you cross from south to north side, if you look left (west) you will see big Ben perfectly framed by the London eye appear between 'The Whitehouse' and the Southbank Center. And when you get half way across the river you'll see modern London to your east and old London to your west. Amazing views.

    You may not be a classical music fan, but there are free lunchtime concerts in London. The main one is St James Church Piccadilly, Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 1.10. Another regular venue is St Olaves near Tower Hill, and another good one is at St Mary Abbott, High St Kensington every Friday, where students from the Royal College of Music get to impress you with their talents. They will usually ask for a donation at the door at all these venues, but it is not mandatory.

      Make the most of it honestly! I lived in north London for four years and didn’t make one day trip out into central at all! Literally was a 15 minute train journey that cost no more than £10 to get there and back with Oyster cards. Just take yourself off to central whenever you feel like it, even if it’s for an evening walk or a jog!

    You mentioned Brick Lane and the Indian food... I love a good Indian meal, but what absolutely AMAZES me is how expensive it is to eat... EVERYWHERE else in the UK. Scotland, England (Birmingham - the 'curry triangle' particularly) and Wales (although only twice). I live in London and yes, it's not cheap, but go to Brick Lane and the side streets; Wow! You can get some great deals, good food and NOT as expensive as Scotland or elsewhere! Pick your time (lunch time or early evening), walk around and look at the offers in the windows. You will get accosted by owners standing in doorways with leaflets. So much competition - wanting YOUR business. I often take relatives or friends there, after a few pints in the local and then walk around for a 'deal'. It's cheaper than outside London - how does that work???

      You will love it!!! It is my city and though I have been in and around it my entire life, it never gets boring! So much to see and do and so beautiful- yeh it’s expensive but it is incredible none the less
