Strolling From Picadilly To Bermondsey On Foot
Reading Time: 2 minutes My latest trip of the day has been a walk from Picadilly Circus after dropping by the bank before going along the bank and getting to Bermondsey.

Podcast listening and more
Reading Time: 2 minutes Since I finished my dissertation my biggest time sink has been listening to podcasts.

In London, I hardly…
