Chill out time
Having only ever lived in cities, I really enjoy the hustle and bustle of the crowds, the packed tube trains, even the bad-tempered queue to get my morning coffee. The only time this changes is when the weather gets hot. Then cities can become unbearable, and tempers start to fray even more!
In New York, it’s always easy to escape the high rise buildings and the cramped streets, as you’re never really that far away from one of our parks. Central Park is the most obvious, and if you live or work in Midtown then you probably spend a lot of your time there. For those of you who’ve never been, the place is huge. So huge, you can easily forget you’re in the middle of one of the biggest cities in the world. Find a sheltered corner where the buildings are hidden from view and you could be way out in the countryside…
Londoners do their parks and gardens differently. There are still loads of them, so if you need to chill out and get out of the “city” you’re never too far away from some patch of greenery. My friend who has a business doing house cleaning Surrey often drives back into the city at the end of a working day, just to go and spend a few hours lying by the Serpentine Lido in Hyde Park. Myself, I prefer Hampstead Heath, though only during the day! You can walk for miles here and not see any sign of civilisation. I usually only manage an hour or so before I start getting withdrawal symptoms, though, and have to head back to the crowds.
