I thought long and hard on this months Travel Link Up theme of
"The Place I Can't Get Out of my Head" hosted by Emma, Rebecca, Kelly and Liz. I tried to not be boring and think of places I've been to other than
London that I couldn't get out of my head.
I mean, I loved Lavenham's
old world architecture and
pretending I was part of Tudor England.
I would enjoy another weekend trip to Canterbury wandering
the streets and discovering more hidden away gems.
I would jump at a chance to head up to
Edinburgh and actually hike Arthur's Seat, visit Hollyrood, and The Castle
(things I missed on earlier visits).
Or even spend a month visiting my friends
in Australia and drink all the wine.
But really, I am boring. I truly cannot
get London OUT OF MY HEAD!
The semester abroad was just an excuse to
move away and live in Europe. London seemed like a good place for the mere fact
they spoke English there too. (Adventurous to a limit)
The next tour in England was to complete
my Masters. Where better to study museums than in a county that has so very
many of them? Surely, this would get London out of my system and I would be
prepared to settle in Canada after this.
Flash forward three years and I'm back
again on a two year work visa. I didn't know if I would actually last the full
two years, I was preparing myself to run out of money in six months and be
returning home broke with a wicked hangover.
Today, if the right opportunity presented
itself, I'd be on the next plane to London ready to pickup where I had left
off.
