Markets

Saturday market. Mainly food, but you'll find some vintage and designer clothes and other trinkets. Also surrounded by good restaurants and pubs, gets extremely busy on a sunny day. Also great walk from the flat just along the canal

Sunday flower market. It's a unique scene, chaotic, busy and charming. Have a walk around, resist the temptation to buy all flowers and then have a drink somewhere nearby.

Sightseeing

One of my favourite things in London and it's just around the corner from my flat. Walk east and you'll get to Broadway market, Victoria park and beyond. Walk west and you'll get to Angel.

Transport

Public transport is phenomenal in London. Rush hours are best avoided, but you can get anywhere in the city at any time. A contactless credit card is all you need. Google Maps works well, but CityMapper is a better option. Uber works well, but it's worth considering the alternatives: Kapten or Bolt.

Security

London is a safe city, but like with every mayor metropolis, there are a few things you need to pay attention to. The main issue that I'm aware of is petty theft, especially phone snatching from bicycles and scooters. It's still a rare occurance, but my advise is to not to walk/stand around with your phone out and be aware of your surroundings when you do.
