Leevi & Sarahs Travel Blog

Leevi and i had four fun, exciting but very exhausting days in London.

We decided to pack up and leave Maidstone to catch up with friends, sight see and party London style.

Leevi and i spent our first day and night right out of London in the West Ham. We loved the atmosphere of this suburb the different cultures, people and most importantly the food. As we were on the out skirts of the city the price of living was considerable less which we loved. We were able to go out to dinner for only £2 per person, we loved it.

We spent our second day and night back in the city, sharing a room with eight others in a Youth Hostel right across the road from Kensington Gardens. Being so close to the famous gardens we went to explore our new surroundings which included Princess Diana’s Kensington palace, followed by a yummy dinner of noodles - Very English.

Our third day was a wonderful day of catching up with friends, which we both needed and enjoyed immensely. We caught up with Gwladys and John on a very hot day at Waterloo station. Being such a hot day we all thought it would be beneficial for all to make our way to a lovely cool pub. It was a great day catching up over fish and chips and lot and lots of beer , wine and more beer. After a teary fear well, quick freshen up at the hotel then back to Canterbury Street to catch up with Brooce and his friend Bron for more drinks and cheap pizza.

Our last day was action packed from once again moving our huge back packs to a new hostel in the hot weather to seeing the Globe Theatre, Saint Paul’s Cathedral and a HUGE night of drinking with my evil buddy Lisa in Camden. The Globe Theatre was amazing. Both leevi and were amazed at just how beautiful the theatre was and the best part was that we were lucky enough to watch the cast from Anthony and Cleopatra warm up. Leevi and i made our way over to the beautiful Saint Paul Cathedral, after exploring the catacombs and church we climb right to the top of the Cathedral 500 plus stairs it was hard work but the views payed off.

After all of that exercise it was time to party with the party queen herself my best buddy Lisa. We meet up in her home town the funky and exciting town Camden. Lisa took us to her famous local were many famous musicians hang out after meeting her lovely friends and singing to the likes of Powder Finger and Spider Bait. It was a huge night and maybe i partied a little to hard therefore feeling a little bit ill on the tube.
