And Traveling the World
Exciting news: today’s the 18-year anniversary of the day I started the A Lady in London blog! It’s hard to believe how far it’s come since I created it back in 2007, not least because it began as a hobby. I’m excited to celebrate this milestone, and I want to share a few thoughts with you.
The Cotswolds are the stuff of English countryside dreams. Their thatched roofs and storybook cottages come straight out of a fairy tale. Given how much I love visiting this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), I’ve spent years gaining experience of how to visit the Cotswolds without a car. If you want to do the same, read on for my top picks for Cotswolds day trips by train. There’s a map, too.
Today I want to share my guide to an Amersham circular walk with you. This scenic route in Buckinghamshire is a fun way to get into the English countryside near London. Nestled in the Chess Valley, it’s so close to the city you can get here on the tube. If a leg stretch near the UK capital appeals to you, read on for the route, map, and photos.
It’s hard to beat Notting Hill. This famous part of London is known for everything from its huge street market to its chic boutiques and cute cafes. The neighborhood’s colorful houses and range of things to see and do make it a London favorite. And if there’s one place everyone knows here, it’s Portobello Road. Read on for my guide to this beloved street. I’ve included a map and everything.
