Initial Observations

2:04 PM

I've been in London less than a week and I'm already in love with this city. It is just one of the most beautiful places I have ever been. I will probably ramble about how much I love Europe for the next three months so I thought that before I start doing that I should talk about a few issues with studying abroad in London so you know its not all unicorns and rainbows over here.

1) Spending all your money on travel/ going out means no money for food. I'm always, always  hungry. I literally think the last time I felt not hungry was in America. My meals this past week have consisted of microwave noodles, microwave pasta, bananas, and bagels. Yum.

2) Having constant near death experiences every time I try to cross the road because I always forget which way to look since they drive on the opposite side.

2)  Head injuries from getting hit by double decker buses while looking out in the road for cars is apparently very common. While that may sound laughable I actually think it might happen to me

3) Their use of military time. Why?!!

4) Everything is so expensive. When you come to Europe you want to do everything and see everything but you most likely don't have an unlimited budget. The more I look at maps of Europe the more countries I want to visit!

That being said London is amazing and I'm super excited for this semester and all of trips we have planned. I'm so thankful to have this opportunity and I promise I will try to post more often to keep you guys updated.
