Yeah right you may fool the Americans but you cant fool me!!! London is an overpriced Housing crisis, Universal credit, soon to be NHS privatised, Owned by Chinese and Russians, gentrifying overpopulated, damp, Brexit stalling about to trade with USA, millennial Generation RENT, Shithole and that's why I sold my house in West London and moved to Milton Keynes and currently living in USA for now and I wouldn't exactly call it England tbh

This is possibly the best American vlog of London I have seen. London is my home and it is always interesting to see it through other's eyes. Also I take it for granted, so it is refreshing. Most other vlogs focus on the major tourist sites, places I rarely ever go to. But this has a different feel, with a smattering of the other London as you live it. Beautifully shot and edited as well.

If you grow up in the UK (or Europe), it is easy to forget how lucky you are with culture history and in particular built heritage. It only just struck me a few years ago that my town has a basically a twelfth century cathedral.. And that I was baptised in font that was almost a thousand years old. '' How crazy is that'. It is like suddenly realising the old picture in your hallway is a rembrandt. Americans go crazy if they have baby clothes that were worn by their grandfather. I was baptised in a font that comes from a time when there were no printed books. America is a great place - but the heritage here is so overflowing, we hardly notice it.

Pretend you're a tourist, pick a day, and spend a couple of hours on a Thames cruise and a walk through the parks around Buckingham. Show up one morning and take in the Guard change or have your photo taken next to a Queen's guard. Walk across the Tower bridge and back, stroll around Piccadilly Circus and Covent Garden. Stop in at Harrod's, just to say you were there. Take in the city's fantastic museums. Dine in Chinatown. Do a Jack the Ripper walk. Have someone take your photo crossing Abbey Road. By then, you'll have checked off more blocks than most tourists ever could. I lived and worked on the Channel, but spent the weekends in London, so I always had a to-do list on my trips. Now, for day two....

London is lovely, while NYC is gritty! I'm not a fan of big cities but in my travels London and Budapest are the two most beautiful cities in Europe. I feel safe in these cities while NYC keeps me on edge the whole time I am there. I am forever panhandled in NYC while I never had that happen in London or Budapest. I'm sure there are dirty parts of London and Budapest, but I sure didn't see it.... so clean and friendly! My favorite US cities are Washington DC and San Francisco. As far as overall cleanliness of European countries, Germany and The Netherlands are unbelievably clean places. I am always amazed at how spotless everything is there.

This is some of the best cinematography I have seen. Not just on youtube, but anywhere. There are frames in here that would win photography competitions and the editing is top quality, sublime in places. What an eye! And on top of that, it's also an understated poem of love and friendship. A delight to watch.

Stunning shooting. You show off London very very well and found a lot of it's hidden gems. You did it right. London, like most places I expect, is not great because of the regular tourist traps. It is the people, the little off beat streets, the glory of it's transportation and exactly is you discovered, it's architechture. An excellent example would be the Tube Station at Wesminster. The Jubilee line there is an amazing thing to see. Winter and summer are the best times to come to London. Early darkness in winter open up the Xmas markets, drisley streets with reflections of the lights, a tightly wrapped jumper with a hot chocolate or coffee. In summer it is all about the parks, lazy walks, open top buses and riverside bars. Both are great but I reckon Winter may just have the edge. Class video, well done.

Interesting fact for you, the slightly curved building at 8:22 had a design flaw that they found during construction. Because it is curved it reflected sunlight down to the street below, and it got so hot that cars physically melted. They had to change the type of glass they used so that wouldn’t happen.

As a Londoner born and bred - videos such as these make me realise how beautiful the city really is. I guess us Londoners take it for granted. I would advise travellers to not just stick to Central London where you'll sort of only get the touristy feel of the city. Explore the suburbs such as; Hampstead, Richmond, Wimbledon and Shoreditch to name a few! There you'll meet real Londoners as the only people who live in Central London are multi-millionaire Russians!!
