London Is Cool
London is a cool city to live in and my aim of the London Is Cool blog is to show the world that this city is an amazing place to live in and that it is the true capital of the world. For me no other city on the Planet has a buzz or offers so much fun and excitement as London does.
For me London is a far more happening, culturally diverse and historic city than New York and it offers more than that other great city of the world known as Paris, we all know the biggest down fall of that city and that is they speak French! But in saying that is English even the main language of London anymore? When I was recently living in Shepherds Bush, it seemed like the English language was a foreign language! London Is Cool and I hope to eventually develop this blog into something that is worthy of such a cool city.
Join me as I venture out and about in London bringing to the world my unique and cool perspective on life in the Big Smoke. I may be a Scotsman in London, but this city feels more foreign to me than when I was living in Barbados. Strange but true! Barbados was a cool place to live, but London Is Cooler.
London has been a huge learning curve for me since my arrival in Febuary 2009! I have faced many obstacles, including the difficulties of having to find a decent place to live and having my goods stored in a self storage container for weeks, as well as getting use to finding my way around this huge and crazy city. The coolness of London is something that I never truly appreciated untill I started actually living here.
London Is Cool, sure as heck is starting out as a wee seed, but you know something it is going to grow to into a huge and renowned name relating to London. How cool is London, well you will have to read my blog on a regular basis and even better why don’t you pay the world capital of Coolness a visit and find out for yourself.
Stay cool and stay tuned into what is happening in London with me, your’s truly William K Wallace the host of London Is Cool.

I was there in the 70′s and loved it. The movie I mentioned on Loose Leaf had a link to the trailer, it’s called Babies.

Hi,
I do love London – I even love hearing the word “London”, it sends a little shiver down my spine.
I’ve written a detailed account of how I’ve taken to this city and what I both love and hate about it.
I would love to hear any thoughts on the article which can be found here : http://applematt.org/life-in-london.
I’ll be following you closely, and if you ever want to collaborate on an article, then all the better!
Cheers,

I’ve never been to London but would love to visit some day. I come from a very small town and there is never much excitement around here.

When I was twelve I had started to love London! I love it more than the whole wide world! Everything is amazing there! The people, the fashion, the language the architecture…my aim is it to live there forever but one negative thing what London haves is:the cost! Its a bit expensive there but I think if you want to achieve something you can do it too!
Greetings Asena
Of course london is cool!!!

London is a VERY cool city, up there with New York certainly and if I had to live anywhere else it would be London

i moved to London last summer and absolutely adore the city!
Lived in San Francisco for a few years and i would say that both London and SF are in my top 5 cities in the world.
Camilla´s last [type] ..let me know if i bore you with this
London sure is an amaizng city that is full of life, fun, excitment and advenure.
I live in Paris and am considering moving to London. But have heard a lot about it being too expensive than Paris. Would be glad if some one could compare Paris and London so that I am better prepared. Sure English is a massive advantage. Have also heard that there is lot racisim, how far is that true.
London is indeed an expensive city to live in, especially so for renting some place to live and transport costs. For an insight into costs, the best thing would be to type in UK price checker or something along those lines in Google and you will find out the costs of mostly everything. But everything is relevant to how much you’re earning!
London quite probably one of the least racist cities in the world.
I feel London is the best city.. Too much interesting places here.. I hope i can visit London any time..

Will, London is indeed a great city, but alas the greatest city in the world is in fact Aberdeen….
London is indeed a very cool place. There are so many places to go so many things to do and I indeed love the culture and the way of living there. I have spent 2 years as exchange student in London and I loved it. I promised myself when I am done with my studies I will definitely settle down in London

Hi Will, I am coming to London in Dec, I knw it will cold, any tips?
Also if I enjoy all what London has to offer I will consider immigration. However I have read a lot of negative press reports on racism against Indians, having not come from India and of Western Culture how bad is the racism there? Please advise as I do want to give my teenage daughter a great education and good lifestyle which we are accustomed to and a healthy environment to grow up in . Tx u
Roshe73, take lots of warm clothes, a good thick rain jacket. A warm hat, scarve and gloves are essential. If you dress properly for the cold it wont effect your enjoyemnt of London. I personally don’t think racism is a major problem in London, but just like any major city in any country in the world there are people who are racists!
