I have lived in De Beauvoir in Islington for nearly 11 years. Before this, I lived in Waterloo, right in the middle of all the crazy. It was close to work — I just used to walk across the bridge to Covent Garden — but because it was so central, everyone was always coming to stay.
I got sick of it and moved to a one-bedroom place in De Beauvoir in December 2012. Five years ago, I sold it and moved to a bigger place three roads over. I love it here. You’ve got everything you need without having to try too hard. I really feel like I’ve found my place.
