I grew up in a village in East Yorkshire and despite my youthful need to escape it in search of big-city glory, I now find myself increasingly idealising that upbringing. Where your world is small and you feel enormous within it, revelling in a kind of inflated innocence that allows you freedom to roam and dream.
Yet, when I reflect on it, I’ve always created a small sense of community wherever I’ve been in London, which has afforded that exact same feeling.
