The minute I stepped out of the cab in front of the university, I knew I'd come home. I've only been here for two weeks, but I feel more at ease here than I have ever felt before. Sure, I'm still adjusting and living here has taken a great deal of getting used to, but I know this is where I've wanted to be for a very long time, the reason the places I've lived in before haven't felt right.
I will go into more detail about what makes London, and Uxbridge in particular, feel like home for me in upcoming posts. What I want to say here is that it's like nothing I've ever experienced. It's something I've missed.
Yesterday I came out the Leicester Square station, straight into the humming flow of faces and voices, and felt a lump in my throat. Knowing I'm not just on a vacation, knowing that I have years to get to know this city, it makes my heart ache.
