Windsor Castle – Fury Road
Today was a bittersweet day. I was off to a sad start because we, unfortunately, had to leave London to continue our journey throughout the rest of the United Kingdom. Don’t get me wrong, I am beyond excited to continue our travels, but I am so taken by this city and I don’t ever want […]
Day Four: We were guaranTEAd a good time today

Fashion in London
The last day of London was long. It was filled with a jammed back itinerary at Hearst UK and then was spent doing some last minute shopping.
