Hello!

So my first few blog posts were all about exploring London, it seemed like a really good way to start off my blog and I loved writing about all these new places I had visited and explored. I adore travelling, maybe not the travelling itself but the idea of adventuring around somewhere I have never been always excites me. A couple of weekends ago during my half term holiday, me and my family decided to go to London for the weekend. We have family there so it's always nice to go down and see them and do a bit of wandering around too! This time I revisited Portobello Market which is an absolute beauty of a place but seeing as I've already done a blog post on that I decided to do this post of the Exploring London series on Columbia Road Flower Market. When walking towards where Columbia Road was, you could see people leaving with bunches and bunches of flowers and the hugest grins on their faces and straight away, I knew I would love it there. I entered and I was overwhelmed by the flocks of people as well as the pretty and colourful flowers. It had this amazing atmosphere. I felt a sense of warmth on the inside (shock), it was just the loveliest place ever. I didn't buy any flowers unfortunately mainly because I can barely keep maself alive let alone a flower but if you do go buy some flowers! They've also got the cutest little shops along the sides of the market which are just adorable! Anyway, enjoy the pictures, I'm posting all the pictures I took in my 2 day stay in London over on Instagram (link at the end of the post) and I'll also leave links to all my previous posts in the Exploring London series!
