One year resolution about London
When I came here, one year ago, I was very excited by this city. It feels like you can do whatever you want ! It feels so alive, so energetic. It feels like you have everything right around the corner ! The public transport it’s perfect. I also feel very safe in this city ! And you have a lot of job opportunities!
You have all kind of events: music shows, art, food festivals, carnivals, sports etc. In the beginning I felt like “ok, this is my city ! ”
But as time passed by, I didn’t have enough money or time to do any of this.
This city is sooo expensive ! Rent it’s almost impossible and you’re basically living like sardines . Tiny, overpriced rooms !
Driving here.. just don’t! NO ! Don’t even think about it.
So, as any other city, it has good parts/ bad parts and in the beginning it was fine but now I’m getting tired. Tired of everything. This city consumes you, everything is being lived in a “fast paced process ”
Being so busy all the time, nobody has time to do anything. After a working week you just need to relax.. So during this year I didn’t manage to make a lot of friends.
I feel a bit empty, nobody cares about anything, anymore or at least this is the feedback I’m getting from this city.
Time flies here ! It feels like yesterday I was landing at Luton airport, 12 months ago and now.. now I need a break. I need to breathe!
I’m considering moving into a small city, where you can have time.. space.. life ! Maybe I’m wrong.. maybe not ! Only time will tell !
