London was a fever 💋 | Solo Travel Adventures
I tend to travel impulsively, and this unexpected detour to London was no exception. After spending 5 days in Rome, I was sitting in an Amsterdam coffee house on a long layover back home, blushing over a handsome Dutch man I met on the plane… gosh, I wasn’t ready to go. And then, like an answer to my thought, my fabulous friend called saying, “Darling, come to London!” How could I say no?
I stayed with Jack (@parisian_sweet) in his beautiful flat. We drank, danced and sang in his living room, and he took the Marilyn photo of my dreams… I toured the sights of London, ate the best fish and chips I’ve ever had at Harrods… admired Kim Kardashian’s handbag and stayed up all night with new friends, laughing hysterically in bell tower bathrooms and wrote our names on the walls of legends.
And on the last day, I boarded a train to Waterloo Station at 12:22 to meet that handsome Dutch man from the plane… we strolled through central London and talked for hours. He took my favorite picture, can you guess which one it is? The mischievous look in my eyes may give it away. 🙈
Life is quite magical if you let go and fall into it. Lately I’ve been asked what I want, and it’s this; Living passionately & not holding back my pleasure… being scared and vulnerable yet playful… taking a spontaneous trip, and romanticizing a life that is meant to be romanticized. And as I sit with my Mom sipping hot coffee, I feel grateful for these experiences that will fill my mind forever. From Bali, to Rome, Amsterdam & London… I am beyond thankful for the friends I have made, and the life I created just by being unapologetically myself. Thank you for following along on my travels. There are more stories to come :)
