Review
My internship itself was great, it was a small non-profit company that focussed on teaching animation to children. The work environment and team there was great and I was able to befriend a few of my coworkers. I walked to work which allowed me to see more of what was around the neighbourhood and be more exposed to the locals rather than tourists.
I had no problem with my accommodation, Nido, only that the rooms and washrooms were small and my bed was not comfortable. Aside from that, the wifi was reliable and the kitchen was completely functional. The cafe and patio were I spent most of my time, and hung out in the TV/study lounges as well.
London, in general, I did not have much trouble adjusting to the culture. I grew accustom to the pub culture (it's normal to have a nice cold pint in the 10 in the morning). I did, however, have trouble keeping tracking of all their coins and ended up having too much that it broke my wallet.
