Cheers from London, Part 1.

Hey everybody,

Cheers from London!! I got here yesterday by the Eurostar train, that runs under the English Channel. I really wanted to experience this, but I’m glad to travel home by plane after all. I finally got to my hostel somehow and met up with Dani, who I went to school with. She has been living here for some months now alreadyyyyy. I catched the last minutes of the Champions League match between Arsenal and Barça and what can I say… After I entered the pub, Arsenal scored two goals. After that, she and her roommate took me to some nice bakeries and also to a cool pub. Dani even wore some OG Adidas sneakers, that her grandma used to rock in the 70s, but due to all the talking and laughing I unfortunately forgot to take a picture of them.

So, here’s the first pic for you: Tower Bridge & me. I have to admit, that I wasn’t feeling too well this morning, but anywayz…

The first thing I bought is easily the most useful of all the things I bought today, but also the most unspectacular one.

Anywayz, I got on the tube to Putney Bridge to check out one of Simon‘s practices with the Oxford eight. The Boat Race on Saturday between Oxford and Cambridge is why I made this trip. Here he is with the white cap.

Oh, and by the way, they even have the Oxford University Boat Club seal on their rubber botts. Now, that’s style!! After the practice I made my way to Soho. First stop was the BAPE store, where the staff was so amazingly friendly. I got me this coin case, because, you know, when you get the chance to go into a BAPE store…

Not far away is Carnaby Street, where you’ll find also some nice shops. I went into the WeSC store and came out with these limited edition headphones, including a matching Be@rbrick and also some sort of bag, also in the same colours.

I was already thinking for months now about getting those, but: Dani, you’re right!! I can’t stop listening to music right now!!! So good.

I also went into size? and they really have a good variety of sneakers, but it was too crowded for my taste.

In the streets nearby I also discovered this cool store dedicated to Lomo cams.

After some more stores, but I won’t get into it, I decided it was finally time to eat something. I remembered that crazy restaurant located in Soho, so I went there. The food was tasty, the waiters were super friendly and the whole thing was a cool experience, as you order everything by clicking on the table. I hope you’ll understand in my final video.

I also did the photo shooting for my WeSC headphones and the BAPE coin case on my table (go back and check the pics again!) as the menu and images are all projected onto the table. Oh, and Diddy, they also serve Ciroc there.

I’ll go to bed now, but I’ll keep you posted. Happy Easter!

This was already all over the internet, but right now I saw Kobe Bryant with his own costumized beats by dre headphones in the colors of his team, the Los Angeles Lakers.

The original colors are those of my team, but I still played a little bit around and these right here would be mine…
