I love London (I live in East London) and I couldn’t live anywhere else but I write this from Manhattan and I have to say I’m not missing it that much. The people here stress too much and talk about themselves too loudly in the street but it’s still magical here. I was in Rome a couple of months back and fell in love with it. It’s like an epic version of Paris but you need locals to show you around to avoid the tourist traps. Some Japanese people got hit really hard by it recently and were forced to pay something like a thousand pounds for some pizza.

I also love Paris and whenever I go to Barcelona I always come back feeling like I’m going to die but all the build up to that is usually a lot of fun. I don’t holiday much but the last two were amazing. It was a September break on an island off Dubrovnik and then a big Xmas blow out in Mauritius, which was lovely. I was brought up by the seaside so I need waves and seafood on holiday. There’s talk of a Halloween week holiday in New Orleans in October but that might be a big extravagant. Btw, if anybody thinks that show True Blood reflects what it’s like in New Orleans they are crazy.
