London Calling

Question of the week: When traveling outside the UK, what do you miss about London the most?

"When away from London, I miss the ability of being able to switch from the dense urban sprawl of the West End to the rich & verdant rural landscapes of Hampstead, and its surrounding areas, within a few simple minutes on the tube. Additionally, though England’s capital hasn’t historically been credited for maintaining much of a 24 hour society, that’s certainly changing. Whether you choose to take that as meaning you can still find a bite to eat in the small hours or taking the opportunity to do something breathtaking such as walking through the City of London at 1am or crossing one of many of London’s bridges late at night."- Hal
