Intro!
As promised, @panderp!
Hello ladies! My name is Louise, my DH is Sam. We've been married for almost a year, together for almost 6. We met in college in New York, but we currently live in London. We moved across the pond for graduate school, and we have four more years until we move back to the US, PhDs in tow. This brings me to why I've been lurking in silence for a while- we're nowhere near being ready to TTC. We're waiting at least until we're back in the US, probably a bit longer to get settled in jobs before starting anything.
I don't remember now what pulled me to this board, but I've been lurking and reading for about a year now. I love this community so so much. You are all smart, strong, unbelievably brave women, and I'm hoping and praying and sending good vibes to all of you. I will definitely start being more vocal about such now that I'm coming out of lurkerdom.

Which museums are you planning on seeing? (I'm assuming you're going to see at least a few!) The British Museum is unmissable, there's a 'highlights' tour on the map the museum provides if you have limited time. There are a ton of other museums, it really depends what you're interested in. The Museum of London has a lot of social history, the V&A is mostly decorative arts and is one of my personal favorites.
I know you've said you're super interested in Parliament- I've heard rumor of a tour that allows you to climb the clock tower and actually see Big Ben, but I have yet to figure out exactly how that works. I'll be looking into that soon and will keep you posted!
I'm going to keep thinking on this, too. So much to do!

"People talk about escapism as if it's a bad thing... Once you've escaped, once you come back, the world is not the same as when you left it. You come back to it with skills, weapons, knowledge you didn't have before. Then you are better equipped to deal with your current reality."
