CAMDEN MARKET (LONDON)

The simplest way to arrive it is by underground. The entire market area can be found between the two stations from the Northern Line, Camden Town and Chalk Farm. The shops and stalls spread out at the left and right side along the 2 streets, Camden High Street and Chalk Farm Road. If you start the visit at the Camden Town Station you will encounter the various main areas in the following order:

• The Buck Street Market
• The Camden Lock Market
• The Stables Market

Although the Camden Market is open 7 days a week you should cosider carefully wich day you choose for your visit. Friday, Saturday and Sunday are the days where a lot of stalls and shops are usually open. If you like to experience the lively hustle and bustle among like-minded people, you should choose the weekend. If you prefer the relaxed atmosphere, you should start your visit in the late morning during the week. Only downside in that case is thet some stalls open only on weekends.

WRITTING

Today is my perfect day, I am waking up later than other days. Now I am having breakfast in a cafeteria and I am going for a walk. I am going home and I am doing some sport in my own gym right now. I am painting and drawing beautiful things in a huge paper. I am also doing some colorful drawings in some of the walls in my art studio. Now, I am having lunch and playing some games with my family; I am reading a book and listening some music at the moment. Now, in the evening, I am  having a shower and coocking some homemade food for dinner. At night, I am watching series and other things in the TV and in my computer while eating some sweets and chocolates; and finnaly I am going to bed.
