Meet Sarah McCabe from Toronto…
There are so many walkers from Toronto,
I have had about fifteen in the last week, I think we should have a Toronto
branch of London Walks.Any
takers?
Hello Richard,
In the interest of London geekiness, I made a list of the 45 London Walks I took from 2011 to 2013, while completing an MA in Historical Research.
My MA dissertation from 2012 is about underground public conveniences (toilets) in the City of London, in case you ever need help falling asleep.
My wonderful experience with London Walks was so important that you all are thanked in the acknowledgements.
I couldn’t have asked for a more enjoyable (and thrifty!) way to delve into the history of the city.Many thanks to you and all the Guides.
All the best, Sarah in Toronto
