I had a great time during my first adventurous night out in London to explore the clubs in Soho. My friends and I headed there early to grab a cheap bite to eat (of course while also getting a couple of pre-gaming pints and pitchers of blue lagoons and strawberry daiquiris lol)

Unbelievable how fast time is flying for me here. It's my eighth week and I still feel like I just arrived! Hope all of you back in the States are doing well. Miss you all <3
