I’m back and working. I had several concerns about my trip but now I can talk about it without worry because everything was fine.
First of all, I want to talk about the accommodation and the English language school that I had to book from Galicia, only recommended by generic comments at different forums.

• Accommodation: It was fine because the apartment was as I expected. Although the general cleaning seemed good I needed to roll the rug because of the dust. The apartments location is very good because they are near Hyde park and close to two tube stations (Bayswater and Queensway).

• King Street College: It isn’t a big school and the courses are thought for longer periods (3 months for example), so I couldn’t find a specific course for me. However, I’m happy about the results because I could meet people from different countries and cultures (Korea, Japan, Poland, Germany, The Czech Republic, Venezuela, Colombia, Turkey), therefore I could attend class in a completely English language environment with people who doesn’t have the same mistakes than I have. I was in different classes during the first week and the second week, you can see a photo taken during the my last class.

After school I always tried to visit the most important tourist places. I went to the museums, The Tower of London, The Tower Bridge, etc. And then, during the evenings I wanted to do different things that are difficult to do in small towns :):

• I went to a classical music concert. I listened the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra playing Rossini, Beethoven and Mendelsohn. I like the classical music so I enjoyed a lot the concert because I could attend this concert.
• I went to the musical show “We will rock you!”: Incredible! I recommend it to everybody who likes Queen music.
• I attended a Jazz concert at 606Club. Although it isn’t easy to arrive at and the entrance can frighten a bit, once inside, the club is lovely and I felt very well in the club. The dinner was the best I had in London and they are very interested on having the best Jazz players performing in the club.  The day I went, Paul Booth performed and I was very satisfied with the concert.

Finally, I need to comment the “pure chance” of my holidays… I was able to see the controversial Olympic torch before a girl were to walk along the Tower Bridge with the torch. I approached to the group of polices that surrounded the girl and I could take a photo :)… But I didn’t know the attempt of boycott and I didn’t realize that the police was alert and I could have been moved apart from them .. but finally nothing happened and they only said to me that I should keep away (you can see the police warning me…).

To sum up, I’m very happy with my trip and I think I’ll repeat when I can…
