CAPA WORLD

James is here with a fun-fulled blog post from London, where he visits the theatre, the Tate Modern, a trampoline park, and more... all on a budget! Read more to find out what else he's been up to during his free time in London.

Have you taken the subway in New York or the Underground in London? James has now experienced both, and he's sharing his impressions and the key differences he's noticed between the two systems. 

James arrives in London and gives a play-by-play of how Megxit unfolded on his first full day in the city. He also compares the notion of choice, autonomy, and agency within the British and American cultures in various aspects of life.

What are you most excited for during your study abroad semester?
I am super excited to just wander the streets of London and get a feel for the city! I grew up in New York City and am really interested in seeing how the ‘vibe’ of London compares—whether that comes through in the Tube, the people, the nightlife, or the food, I’m looking forward to experiencing it all. I’m also hoping to take advantage of London’s proximity to many other countries and do some traveling.
