How to see the most of the UK in only 10 days and still enjoy it? Well, if you’re anything like us, a rented car, a tent and an over-excited dog will do. Add a few beautiful mountains and a couple of pale ales and you’re good to go.

It is true that moving to London involves a vicious circle of dependancies and it’s very easy to get lost and frustrated in the process. A very good example: you need a bank account in order to rent a flat but you can’t open a bank account if you don’t have a permanent address in the UK… What the actual f**k?!

We’ve been planning this little getaway ever since we moved to London but were waiting for a sunny day to do that… 8 months later it finally happened. It was a short 1-day roundtrip but perfectly enough to get a taste of the city and see everything you want to see.

Living in London is great (yes, and you hear it from me, who’s been complaining about living in Paris for the last 3 years). It does have its obvious downsides though - it’s expensive, crowded, polluted… well, nothing new really but definitely enough to make you feel like you need a break once in a while.

Visiting London with the end of November rarely ends up with the most delightful sunny weather and will most probably give you an opportunity to experience the real gloominess, England's so famous for. This is exactly what happened to us - challenging, but so atmospheric!
