summer ode to london

living in london in summer is complete abnormal.

i've got a job and non-student friends; i walk on the streets among tourists (cue nasal high-decibel american-accented voices) and londoners and i feel

strangely in solidarity with the latter group

as foreign as i am, london is practically made up of foreigners, people from all walks of life religions backgrounds countries ethnicities... among them i stroll on the streets feeling

(artificially?) cosmopolitan and londonienne (as i have never felt as a student), swinging along

but it's a sweet and short summer fling

with the city of icons (and freakish weather)

because come end-september

my life will basculer once again, au revoir summer.
