As with all my adventures, it starts with a ticket to somewhere and a whole load of stuff...

At least this time it's only hundreds of miles as opposed to the usual thousands of miles between my new destination and home, but it's far enough to be considered an adventure. Destination London. I have relatively high expectations of what I want to achieve here. I want to see if the legends are correct and that the streets really are paved in gold, I want to get some work, hopefully enough to keep me above water and I want to experience all those cultural highlights that never seem to make it past the edges of the outer ring road of the M25. Yes London, I want to experience you to your fullest. As the old saying goes... Tired of London, tired of life. Let's see what you've got :)
