My last days in London

Yes, that's right, I'm leaving London. I'm leaving in the morning, in a few hours from now. Maybe this year was not my best one, but living in London was undoubtly an interesting experience. It has made me realize, that an image (of a school, a city or even a country), which was created in the past and was planted deeply in people's mind, can be so strong, that people still believe it, eventhough the values behind it do not exist anymore. It has also helped me to learn about myself, and gave me new goals to achieve. Although it has partially altered my way of thinking, it has also streghten my viewpoint on other things.

This monolog could go on for a while, but as the primary function of the blog suppose to be showing off my photos, let me show you the last two images I took in London. They have nothing to do with Christmas, you might not even be able to tell that they were taken in December, or in London, but they (together with some other photos I took this year) might present the city from a different perspective (different from what you usually see in a London tour guide book). London is not just about the Big Ben, red phone booths, guards with funny hats, happiness and wealth. And despite the myth, it is not raining all the time.

The blog will probably be on hold for a while, but I might have posts from time to time, so do not forget to check occasionally.


/the picture was taken at the Elephant & Castle underground station, after I visited my university for the last time/

  1. I enjoy monologues! :D Would love reading more on your thoughts. Take it that london wasn't quite what you had imagined then?

    Both very nice pictures. I especially like the underground one, all the pictures you've taken there have looked great. :)

    Off to your next adventure then. Hope Aalborg greets you with open arms again and send my best to rali and marlena :P

  2. Well, I would lie if I said I got what I expected. It was different, but not necessarily bad. However, I can't decide that yet :/ I hope time will show. And maybe, instead of writing, I will be able to expose my thoughts to you in person next Summer ;)

    Thank you Stella! And I will forward your regards to Rali and Marlena :)

    Hope to see you soon!
