Asalamualaikum everyone! I am so excited to have the opportunity to travel to London and wanted to share the trip with you guys! Travelling went smoothly and although I didn’t sleep on the plane I wasn’t jet-lagged yay 😀 . It was my first time going on an airplane with my hijab 😀 so I was a little nervous but thankfully I didn’t encounter any Islamophobes haha.
I tried to keep my travelling outfit simple by wearing a plaid viscose scarf over a black ninja scarf. I created a knot with the ends of the scarf and draped it over my head because I didn’t want to worry about adjusting my hijab too much. I also wore a light purple shirt dress and loose black pants underneath. I wanted to make sure that my dress had long sleeves because I have seen airport customs officers ask people to take jackets off while passing through airport security.
This is my second time coming to the UK and I am now reminded of why I love it here so much 😀 . There is so much to see here and the amount of diversity is insane. Also, getting out of the hot Houston weather is a major plus as well. The Summer here is like our Winter back home haha.
The day after arriving to the UK, my family and I decided to visit Camden Town. The area was filled with lots of tourists, street vendors, and shops. It was so lively and the food court had an amazing range of cuisines! Afterwards, we decided to end the day by visiting the Queen’s Park.
Hope you enjoyed the London vlog and thank you for watching!
