Back to Reality!

10/12/2020

Hello Everybody!
I´m now back in Sweden! The Day started very early, since I woke up at 4am, needing to pee, and couldn´t get back to sleep! So I chilled on the computer until I packed the rest of my stuff and checked out of the hostel at 6.45am. I was that early because I wanted to take the underground to Heathrow!

The underground took about 1 hour, and I checked in my flight with ease! I went through security, and went to the duty free store, which didn´t take cash, which kinda sucked, because I wanted to spend the rest that I had. But I do understand why though!
I flew to Copenhagen first and then to Stockholm. By this time, I was getting very tired, but in Stockholm, I had some late lunch/early Dinner, and my flight back to Umea went smooth!

My Dad and brother came and picked me up, and drove me home! I then unpacked my stuff and made a delivery to my neighbour!
I have then chilled since then!
I had a great time in London, and I will probably be back soon, someday!

Chill Last day!

Hello Everybody! This has been the last day in London! My 18th time here!
The day started being lazy, and I chilled in bed until 10.30, when I decided to head out! I remembered there being a park close to St Pancras station, which I found, but it was closed!
I decided to go Kensington Palace and walking around the sorrounding gardens! Which was awesome!
I then decided to go to Green Park and go to a cigar shop I was earlier this week, but it was closed!

I then headed back to Camden Town, to my regular place at the scented candle shop, and hung around there for a bit. I then had some Late Lunch/ Early Dinner. I then decided to head back to the hostel, and pack some of my stuff for tomorrow, since I´m heading back to Sweden!
Traveling abroad during Covid has been kinda surreal! There isn´t as much people out, and not a lot of Tourists!

What do I think of my time here?
It has been amazing! Even though the whole Covid danger still hangs around, it has been amazing!
I´m staying at a hostel called YHA Hostel St Pancras, which is a place I have stayed at before, back in 2016! I got a whole 6 bed room for myself, which is both aweomse and weird, weird in the sense that I sleeping in a bunk bed by myself!
The Wifi is kinda shoddy, so I used my own, form my phone!

This time I have explored quite a lot of the city. Checking out places like Cockfosters, Walthamstow, Shoreditch, and more of the east London! Obviously there´s a lot more to see and do in London! But walking about 15km per day is saying something!
I will probably come back some day and explore of the city!

Been all over the place again!

Hello Everybody! Today it feels like I have been all over the place again!
The day started quite early as always, and chilled until 10.30, when I took the underground to Notting Hill and Portobello Market. I didn´t find some things that I wanted, but I found some more comic books!
Then I headed to Shepherds Bush Market, which was relatively close by, so I checked that out.

From there I went to St Pauls Cathedral, and checked that place out, I must admit that it´s an amazing place to look at! From there, I walked across the Millenium Bridge to Borough Market, and had some Cannolis. From Borough I went past HMS Belfast and crossed Tower Bridge, and checked The Tower of London, WHile I was in the neighborhood!

I then decided to head to Brick Lane, as someone recommended that place, and I tried to take the underground, but the stops were closed, So I decided to walk, which was a decent walk. When I got there, it wasn´t that great!
So I headed back to the hostel and rested a bit and left my comics and headed to Cockfosters! It had a church and a huge park with a wildlife shelter and hospital. You have the opportunity to meet some animals, but they were closed by the time I got there!

So I checked out Brent Park a bit more, but my feet were killing me, so I decided to head back, and While I was walking back to the underground station, it started to pour down, So I got really wet!
I got to the station and went back to Kings Cross!
I decided to have somethign to eat, so I had some Pizza at a close to the hostel. After that I have chilled ever since!
Tomorrow will be the last full day in London! I have had such an amazing time so far, seeing a lot of new stuff!

A trip to Windsor Castle!

Hello Everybody!
I have now been to Windsor castle, which is on my bucket list! The day started early, and I left for Paddington station and bought the train tickets for Windsor. Which was cheaper than I expected, because I always check for prices and times online before hand. I went to Windsor via Slough!

I arrived just after 9am, and I was very early, as check in was around 10am. So I walked around the city of Windsor for a bit, until it was 10am, and I walked in. The place was huge! It took quite a while to see everything and I enjoyed it very much! But as after like 12 I had seen most of it, and decided to leave, so I took the train back, the same route and decided to go to Walthamstow right away!

It had some decents sights to it, and I then went to Camden town, and bought some scented candles, the ones that I missed yesterday! I had a nice talk with the guy that runs the stand, and he recommended some places to visit!
I then decided to go and have something to eat, and bought some water on the way back to the hostel! I have then chilled ever since, it´s been a long day!
Tomorrow I will probably go to Portobello market and then see what happens!

Hello Everybody! This is my first full day in London, and it has been an amazing one!
The day started early, which wasn´t really intended, but I chilled on the computer and slept a bit more. at around 9, I left the hostel for Primrose Hill, which is an amazing place!
I then walked down to Queen Mary´s Rose Garden and had a look! It was Very nice, and it should look even better during the summer time!

From there, I walked to Camden Town, and had some lunch. I also searched for Scented candles, which I did find, but no one was there, so I couldn´t buy any! I also bought some Comic books!
I then went back to the hostel and left some of the stuff, and went to the bathroom!
I went to Shoreditch High street, which didn´t had anything much of interest.

I then headed to St James Park, and walked up to Buckihngham Palace, Wellington Arch and Hyde Park Corner. I then walked to a cigar shop and bought something for myself! I then took the tube to Covent Garden, and found something for my mom. From there I went to China Town, Piccadilly Circus, Leicester Square and Trafalgar Square. I then headed back to the hostel, since it has been a long day and I have walked a lot during the day!

I decided to have some dinner, and then have chilled the rest of the night and uploaded some footage from today!
I´ve had a great day and tomorrow I will be heading to Windsor Castle. Which is on my bucket list. I will need to take the train for it! Which is going to be interesting!
I will probably have an early night!

A surprise trip to London!

Hello everybody!
It´s been a long time since I have written anything, but I wanted you to know that I will be leaving for London tomorrow. WIll be there from wednesday until Monday!
It´s been quite a while since I have traveled anywhere abroad and it´s been awhile I have been in London! Well, it was earlier this year, In March.
This will also be the third time I will be in London this year alone!

What will I do in London this time?
Well, I plan on going to Windsor Castle on Friday, which is on my Bucket list. Then I plan on going to areas of the city I never have been before, like Walthamstow, Cockfosters and Shoreditch. Which is going to be interesting! It´s alwaya nice to explore new things in a familiar place!
I will of course go to familial places in the city as well.

I am nervous though! I´m always nervous before a trip, but now i´m a bit extra nervous, since it´s the first since the pandemic really hit! Will the border be closed during the trip or will I get the virus?
I will of course take the necessary precautions, like wearing the mask and bring some desinfectant.
But I hope I will have a great time!
