“When the sun is finally out, it’s my favourite time to explore different parts of London (and ideally finish at a park for prime sunbathing time).

One of my favourite routes last summer started at Columbia Road flower market, before taking in some time at Hackney City Farm and fuelling up on iced chai and a takeaway cocktail down Broadway Market (before making a quick pit stop in London Fields).

Then, armed with a sandwich from Bread & Truffle, I joined the canal path and walked along to Victoria Park. There are so many sunny spots in the park where you can lap up the sun and have a well-deserved rest, but it’s also really nice to walk around the lake and check out the market on a weekend. 100% would recommend!”
