Bonjour! I'm Sophie Nadeau, content creator, presenter, and travel writer. I've been a full-time travel writer for the past ten years, and have spent my adult life living between Paris and London. In 2023 my partner and I decided to combine our love of travel with a passion for making videos and thus began our weekly videos here on YouTube. All videos are filmed and edited by myself and my husband, Antoine. If you love historical, cultural, and adventure travel in Europe and beyond then this channel is for you. We create documentary-style videos that showcase the beauty of the places we visit and are all about discovering off the beaten path places, hidden gems, and unique spots that you won't want to miss out on.

Video Description
If you're planning a trip to London and are looking to get a little off the beaten path, then this is the perfect 2 day London itinerary for you. After you've seen all of the top attractions, you'll want to head to the areas where the locals go. In this travel guide, we'll detail 48 amazing hours, from strolling through one of England's most picturesque neighbourhoods, Kensington, to exploring one of it's newly renovated area, King's Cross. We'll then finish our time in London by heading to Borough and Bermondsey, where we'll taste some local food and drink. Some of my favourite highlights of the video include hidden gems like Hay's Galleria and the beautiful bookshop of Word on the Water, but anyone who loves the spring will likely enjoy the abundance of wisteria and tulips of Holland park.
