Thoughts on London
In my opinion, he was right! I think it’s absolutely impossible to get tired of London, the city is so multifaceted that even when I go there for the tenth or fifteenth time, I discover something new and unexplored.
London is the capital of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and probably the largest and most multinational and versatile city in Europe. Because it contains absolutely everything, the city has a very special atmosphere. On the one hand, it is a historical center, on the other hand, financial, on the third, cultural. Everyone will find something for themselves in London.
I love it. And when I travel and come back home, I have a smile on my face, because even just walking through the city makes you happier.

London is so big and interesting that it’s impossible to see everything in one trip. And I’m not counting the small towns and castles nearby. I’ve been coming back and coming back for 10 years and I can’t get enough of it.
