London
It’s frustrating; intense; busy; inexplicably expensive. Its government is turning it into a playground for the unfathomably wealthy — yet London still remains at the heart of international creativity. It’s a prickly, peculiar beast that is at odds with its thriving creative scene. People live in shared shoeboxes and dine on Pot Noodles just to call London home. But it’s often with good reason.
Love it. Hate it. London is divisive in the best possible way. The Brits have the cultural swagger that all else want to buy into, and London is their temple of self-assurance. Food; drink; music; art; wanton creativity — it made perfect sense that London would be our debut City Guide. Constantly updated, our city lowdowns will offer up the latest places to be, do, to get your head down — and all else in between. Our City Notes guides are free, carefully-curated and constantly evolving.
