15 Things You Miss After Studying Abroad in London

While it's good to be home, London will always have a piece of your heart. Here's a list of just a few of the things you probably daydream about:

1. Riding the Tube Everywhere

Even if it was crowded and the strikes made some lines slow, it was great to be able to get everywhere so fast and so very British.

2. The British Sense of Humor

3. How You Can Get Practically Anywhere in Europe in Less Than 5 Hours

4. Oxford Street at Christmas

Even if it's one of the most crowded places on earth, it's absolutely breathtaking.

5. The Amazing Markets

Portabello, Camden, Borough, and so much more. When you go, prepare for hours of fun.

6. Having Tea

7. The Late Night Buses

Magically, they get you anywhere.

8. Pubs

Fish and chips, anyone?

9. No Tipping!

So.much.easier.

10. Primark

It has literally anything you can dream of, and it's super cheap. Why isn't it all over the U.S. yet?

11. The Accents

12. Walking Past International Landmarks Every Day

13. Eat., Wasabi, Itsu, Costa, Cafe Nero, Pret A Manger and So Many More Ready-to-Eat Places

14. CityMapper

The transportation app that made those late night buses magical.

15. The Terrible Weather You Couldn't Help But Love


We miss you, London, but we'll be back!
