Twin City Envy!

I’ve been thinking quite a lot about where to go on holiday. I hit on the bright idea of perhaps visiting whichever city is twinned with London. After a little bit of research I discover that actual boroughs are twinned with foreign places so I quickly scrolled down the page on the link below to find out who is twinned with Hammersmith & Fulham (my stomping ground). Not to be rude but I was a tad disappointed to discover that good old H&F are twinned with Anderlecht in Belgium, Boulogne in France as I was hoping for more far flung or glam places.

Undeterred I checked out my neighbouring borough Kensington & Chelsea and discovered they are twinned with Cannes! I then search some more and discover that Hackney is twinned amongst others with Alexandra in South Africa & Bridgetown in Barbados.


I then broadened my search and discovered that Liverpool is twinned with Rio de Janeiro

I am now looking at estate agencies! Blatantly in order for this to work I will have to move!
