When you’re leaving abroad, you can sometimes feel a bit homesick or just weary. Here is a list of “happy places”, places or just activities that make you feel better, where you can go to take your mind off this feeling!
– If you like to read, you can go to Daunt Book, the chic bookshop in Marylebone. Nothing better than diving into fascinating stories to feel better!
– Treat yourself and go take a brunch at your favourite place! If you don’t know where to go, here are some ideas: http://www.lespetitesjoiesdelavielondonienne.com/en/brunch-in-london
– If you feel lonely, maybe you just need to meet some new friends! Here are some ways to do so: http://ukstudentresidences.com/make-friends-london/
– Go do some shopping if your budget allows it. It’s well-known, shopping is a real therapy (but maybe only for women, it usually seems like an ordeal for men).
