After class this morning (which consisted of reading poetry on the steps of the British Museum and then exploring inside) I ate a quick English breakfast for lunch with Noah and Justin that then gave me some energy to work out for the first time at the gym I joined. Invigorated and feeling rather adventurous, I decided to explore Bloomsbury. Even though I have been living in this neighborhood for a few days I am constantly getting lost and discovering new places. Today I found a really cute outdoor café next to Russell Park where I ordered a steaming cup of tea, cracked open the book I am reading for my novel class and just chilled. I was shocked at how many business people were popping in for quick cups of tea and relaxing outside. As much as I love New York City and miss its fantastic grid system, I really appreciate the toned down pace and less tense lifestyle. It was refreshing to see people take some time out from their day to unwind and just sit.
Tonight Kaela and I are going to Brick Lane to get some authentic Indian food. I will keep you posted.
Ps- Sorry if this blog is turning more into a food critique than an account of my travels!
