The wonderful world of animals.

 

Do you have anywhere in your life where you go and just know will always be a happy place? For us it is London Zoo. No matter what is going on in our lives, this place will bring joy - pure and simple. The huge variety of animals that live here means that there is something for everyone to see. But we all have our favourites. For us, it’s all about the penguins. Waddling around in their little tuxedos at the Penguin Beach (the largest in Europe) is just perfection.

And then you have the sloths, tigers (with 3 new cubs!), armadillos, giant anteaters, lemurs, gorillas, meerkats, otters, llamas, flamingos, pelicans, squirrel monkeys (who will steal stuff from your bag), komodo dragons, pgymy hippos, and the gorgeous pangolins. Aaaaaaand breathe. That’s just our must see list.

Tip of the day: London Zoo has a huge list of really cool experiences if you want to make it an extra special visit. Be a zookeeper for a day, have a feeding session with the penguins, stay overnight in cabins in the lion enclosure, see the animals in the summer evenings after hours - there’s plenty to do.

We recently returned from a fantastic trip to Oslo, where sauna culture is huge. All Norwegians love to sauna. And we are now absolute converts to the sauna life too. The difficulty here in London is that saunas (and spas) are not the most affordable.

Islington is definitely the prime centre of London’s gastropub scene right now, with the likes of The Pig & Butcher and The Drapers Arms leading the way to show the rest of the city how to do pub food. And, after a recent renovation, The Baring is pushing those boundaries again with a gorgeous reinvention serving some fantastic dishes.

Who doesn’t enjoy getting a bit of creativity into their lives? Get those juices flowing at cone8, a lovely little pottery studio in the quieter recesses of Hackney Wick. Some might say it’s the perfect aperitif ahead of an awesome night out across the canal in the busier areas of The Wick.
