So just yesterday I finally managed to post something new here eventually. I hope you all liked the post, too. Feedback is as usual appreciated from all of you. I know I'm not the best writer in the world, but I'm doing my best to improve. ;)

Today I'd like to post a bit about my bespoke Airbnb Experience art walk called "Art on the walls". I started doing this only two months ago after one of my friends from Germany told me about it. I was already very familiar with the Airbnb community since I'm also a home host since 2014. So one thing lead to another and I tailored a 3-hour walk in London very vibrant neighbourhood of Camden.

Camden is famous for its live music and nightlife. You can also find a lot of art painted by local and international artists as you walk the streets.

Amy Winehouse used to live in Camden Town, so there's also many spots to visit with Amy-themed art pieces in the streets by artists such as Mr Cenz and Bambi.

Mr Cenz is a graffiti legend from London, and started painting in 1988! You can definitely consider him as one of London's graffiti kings.

Besides a lot of public art here in the north of London, there is also Camden Market, which is London's fourth most popular visitor attraction.

Vendors are selling crafts, clothing, music, and street food from the many stalls. All visitors love strolling through this part of the market, and we normally also get something yummi for ourselves.
