Landan Baby!

Thanking Anonymous who said "Welcome back" - it's good to be back! Going to London again next week for another work event. Meeting lots of journalists, promoting products etc. Should be a really good experience so really looking forward to it!

I love London. It's always buzzing! Reminds me of Mumbai! It's so alive, it makes me feel alive just being there...Camden Market, Oxford Street, Piccadilly Circus, the West End - I would totally live in Central London if I had the chance (and the money!) - ahh one can always dream!

  1. I can’t believe this will be my 5th comment to one of your posts since literally Friday.
    You have to be getting sick of what I have to say, hoping and desiring the opinion of another. lol

    I can’t say enough how much I too love London.
    You’re still in England, yet you feel as though you’re not (if you understand).
    It’s the only city in the whole of England that gives me this electrifying feeling of being alive.

    May be I could give you a day plan, for a time when you’re in London once again, wanting to do something different.

    Wake up early, and casually make you way to Hyde Park. This park is one of the Royal Parks of London, and is so spectacular, very much like Central Park to New York.
    Make the park feel your presence. Don’t be shy and linger on its periphery. Then take off you shows and socks, close your eyes and make use of your sense of touch, feeling the beautiful, lightly prickly strands of grass against the soles of your feet. Then hold out your arms, and feel the rays of the glistening sun, warming against the surface of your face and skin. Afterwards, relax upon a cosy blanket, with one of Stephenie Meyer’s novels about an impossible love between a vampire and a human girl.

    Next, it will be time for lunch, but you don’t want to go just anywhere. You want to taste food, which is exciting and stylish. You want to make your way to Soho, to Marlborough Street. There you will find Ping Pong, an oriental restaurant serving an exquisite selection of high quality Dim Sum, little steamed parcels of deliciousness.

    After eating, head towards the centre of London, where you will find St. Pauls Cathedral. As soon as you enter the cathedral, you will be awestruck by the Nave, a long central section that leads to the dome. The architecture, is breathtaking.

    I think it is now tea-time!
    And what better place to have afternoon tea than at one of London’s famous tea rooms.
    The traditional Britishness of everything, makes you feel as though you’ve stepped back into Victorian Britain.

    You must then, make your way to the West-End, where you will find an array of theatre shows, at your choosing. And if I may, watch something different, unexpected even, why not, ‘The Woman in Black’. It is filled with so much drama. It is also so terrifying and so simply brilliant.

    The evening, nor the day would then be complete, without a leisurely walk along the River Thames, at night. The beautiful lights of the City of London, forming the backdrop.
    So moody and ever so romantic.


    That is my day for you, in Landan Baby !!!
    lol


    Goodnight
