MY IMPRESSION OF CAMDEN MARKET

This weekend I went to London in a school trip and we visited a lot of nice places of the city, such as the legendary Camden Market.
We went there on saturday afternoon and we spent there like 5 hours because it's a really huge market which is divided in diferent parts, and visiting all of them was really long and intense as we were actually tired, but it didn't matter as it was so special that we forgot all of it.
The diversity of things that could be find on the market really surprised me a lot as you can find there all types of gifts and items to buy at really low prices (of course, negociating is a necessary thing). Besides, the market is located in a really nice street and in a beautiful neighborhood, which helped to make everything even more magical.
I also really loved the "vintage shops" and t
he thrift shops, as I actually LOVED the clothes and the items that these stores offered. At last, I think going there was really one of the best parts of the trip and I would totally go back there a hundred times again as it seems to be the typical place you feel you've never seen all of it.

CAN YOUNG PEOPLE SAVE THE WORLD?

The more time passes, the more I start worrying about the state of the planet. Nowadays our society consum is so massive that since a few decades it has started being nocive to our planet, and even if everyone knows this is happening, a very few persones in this planet seems to have consideration about that.
The chaos of the planet and of everything that is currently going through our world is a fact that concerns me a lot as I think it's really dramatic to destroy the planet and to not do anything to try to stop it. However there's a lot of associations that try to stop this problem, a huge majority of the planet don't care and people is just continuing living with the same path lifes without changing anything for that problem to disappear.
I personally think we have arrived to a state where the destructions that have already been made up are irreversible and we will never restore plant as it used to be. This is very sad but (without the pretention of being a scientist) I think this is the simple truth: planet is falling down.
So a question comes to my mind, are the new generations being suficiently inculcated of what's happening to maybe in a future make radical changes? My opinion is NO, as young people, and I include myself in this pack, don't receive too much information about this topic. It's true we all know what's happening and we can't change things with just a day, but maybe our society is giving to the nowadays youth wrongs aspects to be focused on, as for example beauty or love, so therefore I consider young people should be more explained about earth's troubles because making a change is difficult, but not impossible.

GET READY FOR LONDON

Safestay London Holland Park

On Thursday 24th of February we are going to London to spend a few days there and to enjoy discovering new places with friends, and we are all so excited to live this new experience.
We will spent 4 days in London and we are acommodating in the Safestay London Holland Park, a beautiful hotel nestled within one of the capital's most prestigious parks.
The hotel has a lot of facilities like Free Wi-FI, Secure key card acces or also a huge private garden and a very nice lounge.

Notting Hill

The hotel is only 20 minutes walking away from Piccadilly Circus and also 20 minutes away using the underground if we take the Kensington High Street Station, as the Holland Park underground statiom is currently closed.
A place that I would really like to visit is Notting Hill because I have always adored the movie and because I think that it seems to be a nice place. To go there from the hotel it's only 15 minutes but taking the undergound it's longer, 20 minutes, so I think that if I'll go there it will be walking.
I'd also really love to see the London Eye and to go into it mostly because I really love visiting monuments that are high, as I think that seeing the whole city from that perspective is really fun and an unforgettable experience. It is kind of far from the hotel as walkind it would last almost a hour and half, and with subway we would last almost fourty minutes.

A place that is probably also very nice to visit is the Madame Tussauds London, which is located in Merylebone. If we go walking it would last an hour but by taking the undergound only 25 minutes.

If we have to go seeing a musical, I'd like to see the Billy Elliot one mostly because the movie is one of my favourites, but I saw the prices and for the saturday night it is very very expensive and I don't think that we can make it. Otherwise if we go there during the afternoon it would be cheap and we could see it.

Piccadilly Circus

Personally it would also be amazing to see the Charlie and the chocolate factory as I'm sure it would have a nice staging as it is an amazing history.

WHAT I THINK OF ALCOHOL CONSUME IN YOUTH

In my pont of view, alcohol is like a rite of passage in our society because there's always a moment in which you feel like you are meant to try it if you want to evolve in your social life. Alcohol has became an habit in young people as it has been transformed in a "cool" act.
As I'm young, I see people's actions and I've arrived to the conclusion that acohol is sometimes a little bit taboo because people never say what they really think about it, as nowadays you can sometimes be considered a "freak" if in a young party you're not drunk or high, but that's another subject.
More and more young people is getting use to drink at parties and not only, and it seems that nothing can make them change their mind as they sometimes think alcohol is not harmful until the day they have an accident related to it, like for example the more and more recurring ethylic commas.
I don't think drinking is a bad thing, I just consider that the excess of this substance is not a right habit to be converted to, as the consume of it is being normalized and it's starting from youth to not be seen as a dangerous practice but as a totatally trivial thing that you have to do if you want to get fun at parties.
