Back in London, Before Greece

So I'm back in London for two days before heading out to Greece...

I never consider myself a city-slicker, but you can't manage my joy when I arrived at Liverpool Street Station last night with the hustle-bustle of the commuters. How I have missed city life. I feel like I have been cooped up in a small town (of Norwich) for three months now, walking to and from class and around the shopping center those handful of times.

An odd moment happened yesterday. While on the tube, my music player skipped to Regina Spektor's Blue Lips and suddenly I remembered that the last time I heard the song was on the MTR in Hong Kong, probably taking the hour ride home from my grandmother's. And now, I was on the tube in London, headed to Christina's. Made me all nostalgic for Hong Kong; how wish I was visiting my grandmother's instead...

Anyway, I have to head out exchange some money before heading to Athens tomorrow morning. Ahh, I'm travelling again, just when I started getting used to the stationary life again. 12 days, 3 cities, Greece.

Location: London, England

Song Playing: For Emma by Bon Iver

Countdown to Home: Exactly Two Months. Motherfuckin' Hell Yes.
