London is considered to be one of the most expensive cities in the world. It isn´t any secret that some tours or entrance fees can go even over £100 for a family of three or four. So it can be pretty expensive to spend even a single day out in the city, especially if you are person with quite tight budget. But don´t worry, there are still many ways how to give your credit card a rest and enjoy London to the fullest. Well, I put together this list of free attractions, places or simply things to do to experience a bit of "life in London" just to show you that you do not have to be a millionaire to have a good time in the capital city of the United Kingdom. 

So many tourists visit London each year and they wander around to snap photos of Big Ben, the National Gallery or they queue to take a selfie with celebrities at Madame Tussauds. However if you decide to spend in London more than one week and you are already sick and tired of this city, try to explore the United Kingdom a bit more. During my stays in London, I had a chance to visit various places all around and I found many awesome destinations which can serve like normal day trips or lovely weekend getaways. Many of the best cities, villages, castles, churches, monuments and other famous landmarks can be easily reached by train, by coach, or by car. So what are you waiting for? Plan your holiday to London and use this city as a hub to explore other exciting locations around the United Kingdom.

While traveling to various countries, I noticed that doesn´t matter where I go, it always gives me some lessons for my life. It can be something about lifestyle of other cultures, it can provide me information about past of a beautiful cathedral in some city or it can show me how to cook those yummy cookies. This time, I would like to share with you a story how I learned a small part of Scotland´s history without going to school and using my history book.
