So let’s just say that I am having such a blast trying all out all of London’s best vegan restaurants. Check out the first few that I ventured to in the first few months of my adventure.

Moving out of dorms & New flat tour!

In case you didn’t catch from the title of this post or all the noise I’ve been making on all my social media, I’ve moved out of dorms!!!

If you want the real sauce about dorm life, check out this article I posted a little while back. You get to meet people so easily and it’s the best thing to cement bonds and create friendships when you live literally 2 minutes away from each other.
