A personal perspective...
|
 DON'T buy fruit for 4 pounds. That's 8 dollars with the exchange rate. Stick to local grown/manufactured goods. |
 Enjoy sunny/nice days when you can. They will be sporadic. (And fresh flowers help cheer up the general gloomy atmosphere) |
 Learn how to use the tube and bus system. Despite the ridiculous prices, London is huge and commuting will be your life, Also, get an oyster card, or even better, a student oyster if you are student. |
 Go visit Notting Hill and Portobello Market. And take pictures of interesting cars along the way. |
 Hang out and read/relax in little cafe's you discover. |
 Go to house parties with the best possible live jazz. Make friends with musicians, and maybe date them. |
 Make the most scrumptious meals with the cheapest ingredients. |
|
|
 GO to Regent's Park when it starts getting nice outside. |
|
|
 Go to all museums. They are just about the only things in London that are FREE! |
|
|
|
|
 Watch plays/musicals
(Cell block tango from Chicago pictured) |
 Enjoy a few pints in a beer garden... |
|
|
And last but not least... TRAVEL!!!
