Brick Lane on the weekends, a bit crowded
the ICA is a small spot but if you’re into contemporary art it’s great
spend the day wandering around the parks
the Prince Charles Cinema has great screenings
anything in Dalston/Hackney, (biased as I used to live in Hackney/Stoke Newington)there’s a great flower and farmers market there
Catch a gig at The Windmill in Brixton if there is one !

so much to talk about, the sunglasses, the scarf, the fresh baguette and coffee, the always lovely cafe setting. I think this is the most swag ever captured on camera I aspire to be at this level
