Today I bundled up, put on my wellies, and took a brisk winter walk in Hampstead Heath. I went through the trees and fields, admiring the views and watching the wildlife.

From the panoramas at the top of Parliament Hill to the squirrels running along the ground, there was a lot to take in. Fewer crowds than in peak season meant that I felt like I had the whole park to myself, too.

I particularly enjoyed seeing all the dogs playing in Hampstead Heath in winter. It amazes me how many there are, and how all of them manage to look like they came right out of an English country magazine.

From Kenwood House to the famous ponds, the dogs were everywhere I looked on my walk. It was fun to watch them running and swimming.

When I got home, I received an email from a good friend asking for more pictures of my flat in Hampstead. Until our furniture arrives, there’s not much to see. I’ll make sure to add some when we get settled in, though.

In the meantime, if you want to find me, you can bet I’ll be out walking in Hampstead Heath in winter. I highly recommend you do it yourself someday, too.
