London: people, lifestyle, food, places

London: people, lifestyle, food, places

Clarissa Morello
I've been to London several times and have had the opportunity to visit different areas of one of the most diverse cities in the world. London is like a clock where time passes faster, people have no time, work fills a large part of their lives and becomes a central point for their professional development. There is certainly no time for an "Italian" lunch but this has allowed us to develop very interesting adaptation dynamics. Every place in London hides great beauty and interesting stories. The weather? Yes, grey clouds are very common but there is much more sun than you imagine. However, the most beautiful feeling you will have in London is the feeling you feel while walking through its streets, with all those people coming from all over the world, all those noises, smells. London is a school of adaptation.

In my experience, the best time to visit London is spring-summer. The temperatures are not very high but the positive side is that in this period it is more likely that you will find the sun and enjoy the day outside, visit the wonderful parks and walk in the open air without carrying an umbrella. However, it must be said that the most fascinating period is winter, especially in November-December when London prepares to celebrate Christmas. In this period every street is decorated with lights, colors, decorations, there are street artists and everything makes the atmosphere magical despite the cold.

About London I would say "all roads lead to London". This is to say that if you are a European citizen it is very easy to reach London. If you leave from Southern Italy like me in just under three hours you have arrived with a direct flight and I think this is true for many other cities. In any case, once you arrive at one of London's airports it is very easy through the train, bus or an Uber, to get to any point of the city and at any time. London is one of the best cities where transport is top notch, very efficient. The London underground is listed among the longest in the world after Shanghai and Beijing.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Clarissa Morello
Italy 📍 "Vast is the traveler's dwelling." I've always loved traveling, discovering and visiting new places. I love getting in touch with new things and I enjoy sharing them with others. Diversity is a wealth, not a limit. I've visited wonderful places where uncontaminated nature takes your breath away like in Norway, Sweden or deserted places with golden sand like Morocco. Asian cultures, coral reefs that never cease to amaze. As a graduate in Cultural Heritage and Archaeology I have an immense love for art and the history of man and I also love the world of plants and my thesis in Archaeobotany confirms this. Man and the environment are connected entities and when man comes into contact with different environments his being changes forever. I hope I can also transmit the love for my land, Salento (Puglia, Italy) which is a land rich in traditions, good food, wonderful beaches and wild nature.
