London at Night

When visiting London during this time in my life I had one song playing on repeat, which was Alabama Shakes' 'Sound and Color'. The song is about an astronaut who has been sent to find a new Earth, and after waking up from his 500-years sleep, realises that everything has gone wrong. He sits alone in his cockpit, remembering the sounds and colours of his past memories on Earth. When I think back of my time living in the UK, some of the strongest memories that pop out are the sounds and colours; SoHo's warm glow of neon lights, the subtle noises of people going through their day, the comforting evening scenes. I know I've moved onwards in my journey to find more amazing places, but sometimes I can't help but think - maybe just like the astronaut in the story: what would life be like if I had stayed?
