Visiting London for the first time. I acc really like it! Some insights: - great mix of history and modern culture. Interesting mix of very old architecture and new modern - serving sizes are ACTUALLY for one person, which is comparitvely much smaller compared to nyc. A large here would be a small in america. - everything is just as expensive as New York, could actually pass off as more expensive - Borough Market has a really nice standout, by far my favorite - pub culture > club - coffee is sooo good here, honeycomb latte FTW - impressed with how clean the underground and streets are comparatively to nyc - city so big that you can get both suburban when you want and city when you want - suprisingly heard more foreign accents than UK accents - beautiful country side - didnt catch much tech culture here

lol as a hungry Brit I like US portion sizes - you should check out Broadway market (saturday) and Columbia Road (Sunday) if you like borough. There are also a couple standout clubs as well as pub culture if you like that (obvs not Berlin level) London is such a multicultural hub I think that’s why Londoners have a slightly different identity to the rest of England! Where’d you go outside of London? Alsoo tech culture is here u just have to look on Luma! May not be same concentration as nyc. There was a @descilondon meet up last night and this this evening! https://lu.ma/a2icxni3?pk=g-zVekpPkckbMmoqt Also cost of living here is crazyyy cos income is so much lower than states

Welcome to the city! Try flannels downstairs on Oxford st. W1curates. Massive screened walls with digital art exhibits. Outernet on Tottenham Court Road even bigger ‘digital screens box’ with art. Both free entry. 180 studios on Aldwych have an amazing digital photo exhibit on, if it’s still running. Not free that one.

Went for the first time a few months ago and agree with pretty much all of this. The food depends, I guess. I was constantly ful and ate sooo well. Collectively, it was probably the best I’ve ever eaten on a trip. Definitely more expensive than the US right now given how strong the pound is v. the dollar, but I literally left saying “I think I want to live here.” May honestly be the best place I’ve ever been to and may make this a yearly trip.
