weee

so i finally arrived in london a few weeks ago. i've mostly been spending my time situating myself, finding my way around and all that jazz. i think we've all become pretty comfortable in our flat, as we have our stuff EVERYWHERE. i've got to clean it soon though. it's beginning to drive me crazy.


the living room (not so clean now)

we have a really nice cleaning lady. she's got this lovely chocolate skin and a red head scarf. she's so nice, she even does our dishes. makes me guilty sometimes. someday, i'm going to leave her brownies or something, just as a thank you. it's an insult here to leave tips, did you know that?

anyway, over the last few weeks we've been doing A LOT. so much, that i feel almost like we've been here for months. we've toured london, gone to like, five festivals (all which rocked hardcore), shopped at markets, and my favorite, toured st. paul's. i still can't wrap my head around it's size. it's kind of like when you are at the base of a HUGE mountain, after being around the green mountains most of your life, and you just look up, and up, and up...that's how it is. we couldn't take pictures inside, sadly, but i took pictures from the outside and from the very top (after climbing 528 stairs!).

so yeah, been a pleasure, but i am going to enjoy my weekend off :) i'll update later, perhaps tonight, more likely tomorrow. i will leave you with some pictures to look at!
