hinge
Because you search by race and you can set your location in advance.

lkke whenever I go to London or anywhere like a week prior my location is set in hinge so by the time I land It’s on :shaq:

Nice, I plan to go back regularly, just trying see if its worth living there vs NY. Then I would just commute to LND since it's only a six hour flight.

Newark airport has routes straight into London City Airport. :wow:

I couldnt believe how central and lowkey that airport was. I only noticed because I took that Emirate Air cable to get a view of the city.


I love small airports because they aren't as congested. It's easy to get in / out, plus you don't feel like cattle.

When I was in Hungary two years ago I was there around a European holiday. I was at this one bar with a bunch of Euro folks. I was one of the few brothas there.

This one English white guy came up behind me and said "You look lost :russ:". Long story short he was one of the coolest dudes there and introduced me to a bunch of his buddies. He told me how he used to download Chappelle Show because he couldn't get it on UK channels, bought me a drink. He made me want to visit London.

I want to go to check it out. Plus I'd like to hit up Saville Row to see if I can get a Bespoke suit made or some other custom clothing.

Bespoke you get measured and you may have a few visits before the final fitting, but the experience is like no other.

Why would you eat any British cuisine ,when there is literally a plethora of amazing Indian and South Korean restaurants. Shoreditch is the most posh non posh part of town, it's hipster central. Coffee shop around every corner.
Exactly. Shoreditch is gentrification central of Hackney.

You here breh? Welcome.

Try to hit borough Market in the morning. It's just around the shard. You will get some good food there.

Listen to this guy OP. Borough Market got some bomb ass food. I wish I could remember the name of this cupcake/bakery across the street from BM tho. Also OP, the halal shops got some really good and pretty cheap food too, just make sure you have some cash (British currency) on you because most if not all of the halal shops in London will not accept credit/debit cards nor USD.
