    I lived in East London while studying at uni at Queen Mary. After traveling all around London, I decided East London was my favorite! Maybe a little biased. East London felt the most underrated back then, but I agree that South London has taken that title now.

      iI made my first visit to London a few months back and stayed near BrickLane, was awesome, I think you can navigate easy in and around. Planning a second trip and was thinking of a different area but i enjoyed where i was based so much.

    East London was the area for immigrants because the West End (nowadays central London) was for the wealthy and so industry had to be in the east, with the winds blowing the fumes and smells to the east, and therefore it was always a cheaper area in the past.

    London is not the UK and these guides are brilliant even for Brits.
    Informative, packed full of recommendations and tips to avoid getting ripped off.
    Love the honesty of this lady.
    Well done Jess.

    Just returned from a week long visit in London. We found your videos extremely helpful. We stayed near Paddington Station and Hyde Park which proved to be a convenient and a safe area to stay. Breakfast at the Marcie Green was fabulous. I would encourage visitors to wear what they feel most comfortable in. We saw many wearing athletic wear and gym shoes wherever we went.

    Good advice, and in a video under 5 minutes. I've got to take another trip, as it's been over a decade since I've been to London. I didn't even know whether I was in the South, West, or wherever. I just looked at a travel guide and subway map, and decided I needed to get to a particular station to see something. I just travel aimlessly. ;)

    • @loveandlondon
      @loveandlondon  Před 2 lety +2

      yeah london is absolutely massive so if you're going beyond the usual super touristy attractions (which I 100% recommend going beyond) it's much more spread out.

    I recall when the London One Day Travel Card was about 3 pounds. Days out were affordably fun.
    The late 1980's to early 1990's was a great time to live in the city. London was expensive, but affordable. It's still a great city, but no longer good value unless you live in affordable housing and income is above average.
