100 things todo in London


I leave london in just three weeks and its so sad Ive had three and half amazing years here and i'm so grateful for every minute of them. Ive learned so much abut myself and about london and have explored so much. this last semester i new this was most likely all i get, I mean ill come visit but it will never be the same. so i put my explorer's hat on and ccheckedked my bucket list to see all the things i had left to do. he bucket list was created in 2016 and so this is the updated version with 44 more things to make it 100 long 73 of which I have conquered and 27 i still need to do in truth i won't get all done but that's just an excuse to come back.
