you don't say what you like and you don't say what is "touristic" in your opinion. But here are some suggestions as a londoner.

1. evening: some alternative comedy or a young band or jazz.

2. go clubbing in shoreditch, combine with indian meal on brick lane.

3. sunday: the east end markets - spitalfields, brick lane, columbia flower market

4. stroll on hampstead heath or richmond park

5.  walk along regent canal. reocmmended - new north road to camden go off the road in Islington for the small market (f it's Sunday afternoon)

6. saturday - borough food market + stroll on south bank.

and don't slag off some of the tourist attraction, especially art & culture  and some of the greatest architecture in europe.

feel free to write me with further pointers to your taste and dates (dates influence a lot)

In my day job I write about Blood Pressure Treatment and treat those who suffer from blood pressure problems. Low blood pressure is a particular interest and I'm often asked about how to lower cholesterol levels. A healthy heart is becoming a huge focus for many of us nowadays. Improving your blood pressure control and thus the health of your heart and circulation system is really important. My most recent online "adventure" is to start a facility for people to ask me my opinion and to provide high quality health information by answering medical questions online.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I also have a special interest in the problem of feeling Tired All the Time and in those who suffer from chronic fatigue or lethargy. This seems to tie in also to skin care issues or skin treatment problems and suggestions. Tiredness and fatigue can lead to major problems for many individuals in modern society and the way that this can affect all areas of general health can be quite invasive in terms of daily life and coping skills.

My work with footballers and athletes leads to a focus on Painful Shoulder conditions and on the problems associated with frozen shoulder or whiplash injuryRotator cuff injury causes problems for many of my patients.

When not working I daydream about my next amazing european vacation trip  My favorite European cities include Paris and Barcelona and my next blog project will be to write about the best way to spend a night in Paris and how to find an apartment in Barcelona. I just love European travel in all its forms.

Great question - and I think Uriba has given a very good answer.

Just get out and about in the city and you'll soon find ways of staying off the well beaten tourist tracks.

Enjoy your visit to London
