I’m sitting in New York now, looking out the window of my parents’ house at piles of snow plowed up along the streets. I watched London shrink away from me on the plane yesterday, the cars turning to ants, the houses just lego rows way down below surrounding the snake of the Thames and then clouds. Big fluffy clouds. And London was gone.
But the thing is, I know London will always be there. It’s one of the absolute best cities in the world and that’s not going to change anytime soon. One thing the past four years in that heaving metropolis has taught me is that there’s a hell of a big world out there that needs exploring. London has a bite of every country in the world to give you a taster but it’s time to dive in for more.
Tomorrow will be my last London post on this blog – answering any questions you want to throw at me in a Listen to a Londoner style entry. Leave them in the comments or email me at littlelondonobservationist@hotmail.co.uk
I want to thank all of you for following this blog and your comments and encouragement. It’s been a wonderful experience and I will certainly continue a similar blog from my next destination…

the blue comes out really nicely with that background – nice composition with the plane! _=
This post made my eyes well up with tears. No questions for you but I look forward to reading your answers to others’ questions.
Good luck in NYC!
I posted a question on an earlier post…
Amazing picture by the way!
I’ve really enjoyed your posts and will miss them! Good luck with your next adventure.
Well if you leave London the only place you can reasonably move to and experience the same lifestyle is New York really, so I’m sure you’ve made the right choice
I hope everthing goes really well for you over there

Hey Steph, just popped by and saw your ‘last post’. Sorry to see you go but like Pete was saying, you’re heading to NY so it can’t be all that bad, can it?
Anyway, will be heading to LPO. Cheers!
Awh man. I just found your blog and you just left London
Good luck finding your new home!

I enjoyed my time in london as well! But if you ask me – i think there is better places in world where to actually live!;) Any way, one thing that I have got and I will keep from london! That is nice a little on-line income here – http://MyJobCentre.com – That is cute web place where to sell and buy micro jobs ! I was shocked what people are willing to do starting just from a Five £!
Cool and recommended!
Regards to all,
