what’s your favourite city and why?
London. It's vibrant, beautiful, and full of life. You can see historic buildings right next to modern skyscrapers, and the busy streets often lead to green spaces. There’s always something interesting to do, see, eat, and drink, with new places to explore popping up every day. The city’s diversity is incredible, and it’s a place where you can be unapologetically yourself.
