Borough Market = mini heaven

One of my favorite places on Earth is the Borough Market in London. This place is an absolute sensory overload. It's nestled in the south bank of the Thames near London Bridge. At 250 years old, it's London's oldest food market.

You know how you go grocery shopping at Whole Foods then walk out feeling a tiny bit full from all the free samples? Well multiply that feeling times five, and that's the way you feel leaving Borough Market. There are samples galore. Cheese, fish, fruit, meat, vegetables and desserts are just a few of the market's fresh offerings. They have the most sumptuous blueberry cookies.

The British pound is falling as we speak, so now is a great time to visit England. The Borough Market itself is worth the trip if you ask me!
