The start!

I have been trying for the last two years to write about how my life had been over in London and of course I always started but never finished or at least thought about it but never got round to it. But I think I owe it to the people(my friends) that made my time in London the best time of my life. I owe it to them because I believe that they have helped me in many ways even if they don’t know it.
And now this blog will be my journey back to the city i love.
London changed my life in many ways, moving there made me happy, big cities have always been what i love....but not only that... leaving for London was like such an accomplishment. Moving to a different continent was a huge leap for me which i had wanted to do for years.... I can remember it like it was yesterday saying good bye to my mum at the airport (my dad couldnt make it). I remember feeling really nervous but not at all scared. It was almost as if I didn’t believe that I was doing it.
I still feel to this day that London made me grow as a person. I learned many things that seem so small, but to me it made me who I am. I learned to live with and become friends with people from all walks of life. I learned independence. But most of all I learned to be some one that I am proud to be.(among other things)
I also saw many things that made me love to be in this amazing city. I saw my first snow in London at the age of 20 and to me this was the most amazing thing. But I think the thing I loved the most about London was the history, the feeling i had walking down the streets.... I was there on the streets of London where it had all happened hundreds and thousands of years before. That to me was truly spectacular.
All i know now is that i am back in South Africa and dying to get back to London. Im hating being here and i feel very lonely at times, and i feel i have know one here. all my friends are still in London and that makes me sad. the times i had there were the best in my life. my friends became like my family. and i truely with all my heart miss them all:(
anyway maybe my next blog wont be so sad:)...think i needed to get that off my chest.
kisses xoxox
