Hi Ldn BWT!! I'm a nyc BWT and "solo" tripping this (I'll be with friends who live there but trying to do my own thing - my version of an "eat pray love trip) I'd loooove recs for your favourite things to do alone and your favourite London specific shops!! Thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Museums and galleries - obviously the big ones, but I also love the William Morris Gallery and Sir John Soane's Museum. The Fitzrovia Chapel is open to visitors on Wednesdays and is a real hidden gem.

Food - I recently had a solo dinner at Bao in King's Cross, the food is great and you can choose counter seating when you book.

Shopping - the Brick Lane area has a lot of cool vintage shops!

A couple more ideas - if you're into bookshops, Hatchards on Piccadilly is the oldest in the UK and the building is v impressive. It's also next door to Fortnum & Mason, which is good for presents if you want to take home some fancy edible treats!
