Brixton Village. A Photo Blog.

If there is one place in London that I can keep coming back to, it's Brixton Village. Brixton seems like a different country... and why not, it even has it's own currency!
A place where people from all over the world live and work together, a melting pot of cultures, music and culinary adventures. You’ll find Europe, India, Asia, Africa, South America and the Caribbean all represented. Shops that sell everything from charcuterie and cheese to traditional Chinese medicine.

What's most beautiful about Brixton village is the high glass ceilings. Marked by flags from all over the world, hung side by side. This right here... says 'London is Open', and this is the London where I want to be.
