Weekend with New Friends

Hello!

I've now been in London for two weeks and this fortnight has been filled with exciting stuff! Thankfully I didn't have to experience everything alone because I already made friends with two amazing girls that I love spending time with <3 
Here's how my first weekend in London went! :)

Oxford Street Shopping 

On Thursday we had school only for an hour and we were served a delicious lunch! :3




















After getting my tummy full of sandwiches, fruits and heavenly lemon cake I headed to Oxford Street with my classmate Sara. She's from Finland too and we hit it off really fast! I feel so lucky to have made good friends with someone so quickly, on the very first week!!! (^_^)




















Oxford Street is absolutely my favourite place to shop in London and whatever I'm after I always start my search from there. This time I didn't shop too much, only the "essentials" such as Matte Basecoat nailpolish and One Direction's You and I fragrance. I usually get really uncomfortable in big H&M's but I still managed to find that nice hoodie/shirt thingy. From Primark I found a nice scarf to keep me warm when the weather is getting colder! :3


Platform 9 3/4 and Honest Burgers

On Friday me and my roommate, Faye, went to King's Cross station. More specifically to Platform 9 3/4! I know what you're thinking and the answer is no, I'm unfortunately not studying in Hogwarts. But you get to experience the feeling that all those lucky wizards and witches get when running against the wall to catch the train. Also the coolest thing ever is that they give you a house scarf to wear in the pictures and you can actually choose which house you want to wear! And then there's this dude holding the scarf up so it looks that you're actually running through the wall (which looks soooo real in this picture with me posing and all..)


All this wizard hype made us hungry and Faye happened to know a burger restaurant nearby. The place is called Honest Burgers and honestly, the burger was the best one I've ever eaten.


This was the first time that I could actually eat everything on my plate when ordering a burger in a restaurant! Reasonable portions are usually so hard to get! The burger was so delicious and the fries were flavoured with salt and some other ingredient (I'm sorry I don't know what it was, but trust me, it was good!) If you love yourself a good burger, you have to go eat in that place when visiting London!!!


So that was my first weekend in London! Pretty great, right?! :)
