In love with my city

In London, even without trying, you are always surrounded by people from all over. There was a time when I felt like I wasn't immersed enough in the international atmosphere, but without realizing it, between my boyfriend and his English friends, my New Zealand roommates, and my English, Italian, Austrian colleagues, etc., I was actually quite immersed... You don't even realize it, and that's certainly what I would miss the most if I had to leave London. Being surrounded by so many cultures is so fascinating and inspiring, it's a bit like travelling, it's hard to miss once you've had a taste of it!



This incredible state of mind that animates us all the time and that we feel especially during the holidays, when the weather is nice or when any important event comes up. The culture and this "spirit of celebration" are always ready to be activated to make the most of the moment.

We take advantage, we live life to the fullest and the "Make the most of it" spirit takes on its full meaning. Living intensely is probably one of the best reasons to come to London and love London life.



London is the city of "cool" par excellence. Whether it's the latest trends in fashion, sports, leisure, food or lifestyle, you can always find what's new. Trends start here and Londoners are experts at identifying and adopting them. It's very stimulating and exciting to live in such a context and always feel a little ahead of the game.



In 8 years in London, there are very few places I have been to more than once. My neighborhood addresses of course, some places that I really like like like some brunches in London, or some French restaurants in London in which I like to recharge my batteries, but in general, there are so many good addresses to try that it is possible to change all the time and to find yourself in the middle of unusual places as often as you want. A bar on the 40th floor of a tower, a secret garden with a bucolic air, an unusual restaurant in London, an underground bar... there is something for everyone!
