Sarah does London

London is my fourth country within a year and I felt very tired of moving when we held the latest farewell party. I'm getting old! But obviously it's great - as always! Actually it's almost better than the last three places I called home this year. There is so much to do, I wouldn't know where to start. So let me give you some impressions.

What is London?
London is...

• the global village described in Anti-Globalization Books (and the proof that they might be wrong).The same international crowd hangs around here, but this time this crowd seems to have taken over this wonderful city.
• polluted, pretty dirty and the badly maintained tubes give you the creeps.
  
• Arty. Galleries, Museums, Theatres, Events... If art can be life, than it must be London.
• beautiful, especially when the sun is shining... which in fact happens more often than you think (I suppose, you think "never")
• expensive. The pound is what counts and you better become an investment banker. Being a workaholic is the second nature of a Londoner.
• lively, at 3 am there is a rush hour on all major nightbusses to get the first half of the party crowds home.
• dead, after 11.30 its difficult to find an affordable drink... so you get send home earlier then you want to leave most of the time
