🇬🇧 living my LONDON dreams~ chinatown, London Eye, uber boat, a nice dinner, & yarn shopping

In this travel vlog, we start out at Maidenhead Station and took the train into Paddington Station. From there we tried to visit the Marble Arch but it was under repair. We hit up a lot of touristy places such as Piccadilly Circus, Big Ben, and the London eye. We also ate some amazing dumplings in chinatown as well as had dinner at a very nice restaurant called Mallow. On the way back to Maidenhead, we stopped at John Lewis on Oxford Circus and did some yarn shopping. I can't wait to show you all of the yarn I got when I'm back from this trip.

👋🏻 Hello! My name is Em. Welcome to my corner of the internet. I put out weekly vlogs here that cover a variety of topics. My hobby is having a lot of hobbies. I love to work with my hands. Some themes you may encounter: gardening, cooking, crocheting, preserving food, cleaning, sewing, & various other hobbies I've collected throughout my life. None of this is without an end goal: having a homestead of our own one day. With a giant garden. More dogs. A greenhouse. Trees. Tons of trees. And dirt that is our very own. I hope you enjoy watching my silly little videos. 🫶🏻 - Em, Lavender Moon Homestead

Ive watched a ton of tourist /study abroad type videos but only just dicovered yours, theyre some of the best, perfect amount of narration, not overly focussed on your own face, genuine emotions without being overly done, really enjoyed the intelligent editing, joy to watch
