London is the capital and largest city of the United Kingdom. The history of London and its landmarks cannot be described in a few sentences, but the city is undoubtedly one of the most sought-after tourist destinations in the world. It has it all - pubs and parks, theaters and cinemas, shops and sights, museums and art galleries; London has something for every taste. Life in the capital, however, can seem a bit expensive for the average student, especially when it comes to housing. The fast-paced lifestyle can both excite and exhaust you, but if you know how to strike a balance between enjoying life and not going broke, London is the ideal place to be a student.
