well hey there london.

so i've officially completed my first week in london and i have to say it was a complete success. i already feel so much more at home here than i did in brazil [it took nearly a month there] could be the english or the ability to actually be independent here. we've already done so much work and being in the city wise and we're finally getting settled into our new place.

this is me having my first pint and fish and chips at a pub. i believe i will be having many more of these.

same night we walked all over. this is the eye of london at night. we also saw big ben, trafalgar square, soho, and much more.
welcome to the saatchi basement. this is where we spend our days. say hello to my partner devon.
there's me. say hi.
and now for the brand new, finally clean, apartment. this is the kitchen/living room.
this is the bedroom. it's small but very nice. and the area is amazing. its right along hyde park in west minster.
and of course, my very first home cooked meal. [as home cooked as i can make.]
dream team.
on the way home from the club, first night out with all the students, we had to take the bus home. the famous two story bus. i was very excited about it and made everyone sit up top and at the front.
the view from the front of the bus.
yesterday devon and i went to the tate modern museum to get inspired for some work. amazing, huge museum right on the banks of the thames.

this is in the turbine hall. its the 2058 exhibit.
inbetween two of the galleries. timeline of art handwritten on the walls.
on the way to the tube station we found st.paul's cathedral. absolutely huge. absolutely gorgeous.
yes i do believe london will do for now. in fact, i may never leave.
