Ice-skating at the Strand may be as clichéd as strapping on a pair for
a figure eight at
Rockefeller Center, but it's still one of the most romantic and cinematic moments I've
had in London. If you're not inclined to glide on faux ice, grab a cup of hot cocoa and
watch the locals...

The Café in the Crypt at Saint Martin in the Fields is beyond
brilliant. The church that
is famous for the Neville Mariner-led orchestra has more to offer besides a quiet place
for a spiritual moment and the opportunity to connect with Mozart and Bach on a
deeper level....

Whenever I hear the words "Christmas market," I have a distinctly
Pavlovian response to
yearn for some mulled wine. I blame this on living in London over the holidays when every
day on my commute through Covent Garden I would stop and fork over two quid for a
small plastic cup of...

Getting a crepe in Paris is about as easy as turning around a corner.
Many cafes
(especially in the center of town) have take-away stands that you can approach during
normal hours. Here you can order a crepe sucre, a Nutella crepe, or what is a seemingly
endless variation (sweet...

One of the landmarks of the expatriate scene in Paris (think The Lost
Generation and
Ernest Hemingway), Shakespeare and Company has been a fixture on the Left Bank for the
better part of the last century. A great place to check out a guidebook, the latest
best-seller, or just to...

Located near Gloucester Square of Queen's Gate Terrace, Pasha is a
luxurious night of
Middle Eastern food for those with a few pounds burning a hole in their pocket. The
atmosphere is very Kasbah-chic; warm, inviting, plush, with beautiful—yet
tasteful—Moroccan and Turkish...

Most Londoners prefer Gatwick as it is far less manic and far better
organized than
Heathrow. It is also the airport of choice for budget airlines such as EasyJet and
RyanAir, and not coincidentally so. Next to Heathrow, it's the busiest airport in the UK,
and apart from that it's...

It was dumb luck that landed me in Greenwich at the Saint
Christopher's Inn over the
Christmas holidays, however if you're hostelling in London this is one of the best places
to do it. Greenwich is one of my favourite neighborhoods in the city, one that is

London's arts and culture scene means business; just look to the
Barbican for proof. It's
the largest multi-arts center in Europe and is open year-round for business, meaning
you'll be able to find an excuse to pop in during your trip, no matter when you're
visiting the United...

Located a stone's throw away from the King's Cross station, Ashlee
House is the perfect
hostel combination of safety, convenience, style, and affordability (a rarity in
London!). Running the gamut from private rooms (£35-£37 per night) to sixteen-bed dorms
(£9-£18 per night),...

Shakespeare's Globe Theatre has a lot of good points and is certainly
a must for any
tourist. However, my favorite part about the Globe is in the winter months when the
Christmas Festival moves into the theatre. When last I was there, I saw some beautiful

Chicago-born Sam Wanamaker came to London in 1949 and was shocked to find that no memorial
sat in the place of Shakespeare's original Globe Theatre. As tomorrow and tomorrow and
tomorrow creeped on, he decided to do something about it and, in 1970, founded the
Shakespeare Globe...

Allow me to make the Tate Modern easier for neophytes to art,
galleries, museums, and
other institutions that involve a lot of walking, staring, and coming up with something
intelligent to say about paint smeared on canvas: The lobby is the best part of the
Tate. And it's free....

With a Christmas market that displays everything from local crafts for sale to staged
rapier fights to set and costume designs and a theatre season that performs some of the
greatest works of Western Art (think Hamlet, King Lear, and--dare we speak his
name?--Macbeth) and some of the...

The way ROH's £10 Student Standby works, you a) have to be a student, and b) have to sign
up with them on their website (and enjoy the techno remix of Puccini's "Nessun Dorma"
while you're at it!). It's free, and they'll contact you with at least 24 hours advanced
notice if they have...

One of the UK's greatest museum treasures, the V&A has a heavy amount of design from the
Tudor/Elizabethan Age all the way through to art of the 21st Century. And if you've had
your fill of paint on canvas and etchings in silver, then you have from now through the
middle of November...

It's my opinion that the Hotel Richard gets a bad rap among the
Hostels.com and
Hostelworld.coms of the world (wide web). True, the hotel (in actuality, hostel) is
pretty run-down, however it's not without its charms. It is very 11eme Arrondissement,
with no elevator, chipping...

Comfort Inns are reliably good, clean, and cheap crash-pads across the
globe and Paris
was no exception. The Comfort Inn Montmartre, though in a bit of a dodgy area, is a
straight shot down Boulevard Sebastien to the Seine and Ile de la Cite. The rooms are
safe and the staff is...

I stumbled into Indiana Café by happy accident the first time I went
to Paris, when most
of the surrounding restaurants were either too full or too expensive. I was sold on the
happy hour, albeit I was prepared for weak cocktails and poor Tex-Mex. Fortunately, while
not perfect,...
