This is where it all began. The city that opened my eyes to the rest of the world. The city where I first got bit by the infamous “travel bug” way back in 2004. London holds a special place in my heart just for that reason. From its quaint shops to its rich history, I developed a huge crush on the city. How could I not? It was nothing like the quiet suburbs where I grew up. I loved it. Every time I return, I feel my heart grow a little fonder for this city. Even though I’ve since fallen for other places after that initial trip (I’m looking at you, Australia), London will still be my first love.
