At the moment I'm in London. It's my first 1) of living in the capital city of the UK - and in a busy, 2) metropolis it's easy to feel like a small fish in a very big pond.
I take the 3) to work; the London Underground is a great transport network. However, first thing in the morning it's often very 4) on the tube. The tube can be quite expensive, at £4 for a 5) ticket. Luckily, if you have an Oyster card you pay almost half that!
As a capital city, London has loads of great 6). Some of them require an 7) fee, but there are lots of things which you can do for free. The Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace is a well-known 8), which takes place daily at 11.30am between April and July. Most museums in London are free for everyone to enjoy, but 9) are welcome. Last week, I visited the British Museum. I particularly liked the room 10)with old watches and clocks.
One thing I love about London is the free newspapers and magazines. The articles aren't too long, and it's a great way to 11)up with the news!
As much as I'm enjoying living in London temporarily, it'll be nice to 12)the big smoke (a slang term for London, 13)to the amount of pollution) and return home!
