London is a vibrant place for young people. There's something to do at every corner. Literally 100's of good clubs. I would recommend ministry of sound, fabric and xoyo to name a few. For shopping, the big ones are both West fields at each side of London and if you're looking more central then oxford street. Can always grab value for money! My favourite places to eat in London are Shoreditch and Camden. There's loads of vegan options. Come to London you'll love it!

London is a vibrant city with easy transportation and something to do every day. The various food markets around London ensures lunch breaks aren't difficult. Despite some of the restaurants being a little too expensive for students, the taste of the food mostly makes up for the cost. The nightlife in London is also amazing, full of energy and vibes! Uber saves the lack of tubes at night during the weekday but night tubes allow transportation at night to also be equally easier and cheaper. Shopping at London is definelty one of the most common past time hobbies: oxford street, Westfield. Major shopping malls dotted around London gives us the opportunity to buy necessities and outfits easily.

London is my favourite city. It is great for a night out because of all the choice you have whether you like one genre of music or another, whether you want to dance, or watch a movie, just go for a few drinks etc. It's also a great cultural city. Lots of museums, lots of concerts, lots of theatres etc...

London is a great city partly because it is a big city. There are not too many aspects that would set it apart from other major cities such as New York or Beijing. Although I love London for the accessibility of materialistic goods it's transportation system bothers me slightly. Sure it gets you where you need to go at reasonable speeds, but it does not do so comfortably. There is no AC, it is very crowded, and it does not make you feel too safe either.

London as a city is beyond incredible. You will never get bored of living here as there is so much to do and always stuff going on. Whatever your background or interests, there will be something for you in terms of food, culture, activities and sports. there are endless restaurants covering every cuisine, and the bars and nightlife is also amazing. There are nights out for every taste- from classy and sophisticated to rowdy and edgy. If you're a student it's even better- a lot of places have student discounts and so it is possible to have a good night without spending too much.

There is tonnes to do in London and the number of amazing places to eat is endless. I always use the timeout London magazine to find things to do in London on the weekend and it is great for discovering free things to do. London food markets are great including Borough Market, Maltby Street Market and Berwick Street Market to name a few. Notting Hill has great vintage and charity stores, as well as Portobello market which is great on a sunny Saturday.

London is a student city. It has a club for your specific mood for every night. It has the most weird and wonderful events that you would otherwise not dream of - from exhibitions to shows to different foods. If you want to chill out you could do Sunrise yoga in a skyscraper, or you could go on a walk in Hyde park. If you want flavourful food walk down brick lane, and do some vintage shopping whilst you're at it. Everything you may ever need is in London. I love it.

I am born and raised in London but chose to stay home for university to save money. London is a great city as there is plenty to do and see. Loads of bars, clubs, restaurants and attractions, however as a student it can be a little expensive at times. My favourite thing to do is eat, so I'm always looking for quirky restaurants to taste foods from all over the world. London is the best place to find these because there is soo much diversity here. I love London, London is my home.

Really good transport links, plenty areas to go for city life and nights out, Shoreditch is excellent for uni students. Loads of places to visit for shopping like Westfields, Croydon, Wimbledon. Food prices can vary greatly but often good value for the price. Always different activities happening to get involved with. Travel can be pricey and adds up but deffo worth it.

London is the perfect student city - there is no end of things for students to do here. Heaps of places offer a student discount, even in central London and especially the ones near campus. Download a bunch of events apps and you won't have to look far to find cheap thrills.

London is a great city to experience. I wouldn't want to live here for the rest of my life, but it's been amazing to be able to live here for a few years. Although everyone complains, the transport system is pretty incredible. If you're travelling within Zone 1, it's much nicer to walk between places, particularly around the river. There's always so much to do and see, on every night of the week, and some great websites/apps available to find some deals and make it more affordable. The big drawback is unfortunately the cost, trying to do anything spontaneous is normally costly so planning is essential to find deals and offers. Would definitely recommend experiencing it for a short period of time.

There's a huge variety of places to try global cuisine. From Lebanese to Vietnamese you can always find something new to try. Transport links are second to none. The tube is convenient and reasonable. Clubs are everywhere, and most are open on weekdays so you can always count on a night out.

London is great as there is always something to do. From free museums to bougie restaurants there's something for everyone. It is expensive so I'd say be prepared if you plan on going to uni in London. However the experience is worth it!!

Diversity is at the heart of London. Whether that's language, culture, festivals, international food... London truly has it all.. it makes you feel right at home and nothing can compare to it!

To be honest, London is the best place to live in as a student ! You get the feeling of living in a busy environment, there is just so much going on all the time ! Great choice of bars, restaurants, nightclubs, shops, just everything you need. There is a huge variety as well, from expensive and extravagant, to more underground and funky. You can meet people from around the world and learn about their cultures.

Living in London is crazy overwhelming, but I wouldn't traid it for anywhere else in the world. So much to see and do, there is never a dull moment! One of the things I live the most is actually the ease you can get around ... If you go to a party or go out at night it is so easy to get home thanks to night buses and tubes - a luxury for me, coming from a small country side town. So you're never stuck or have to spend a fortune on a taxi! Also the food here is insane ... Such a range, there is always a new place to check out or recommend! So many crazy nights out but also pubs are great! Open roof cinemas, ball pit bars, art galleries, theatres, festivals, the activities are truly endless and I feel so privileged to be able to live in this wonderful city.

Great ways to get around with public transport such as with the underground line or buses, can always find something new in London and there are many varieties of food to find. There are many cultures all around London so you will definitely find your country.
