🇬🇧 🗣 Tudor London - Buildings and their history ft Living London History #026

Curious Pavel - History meets Travel

I always try to meet you with curious people and Jack is the perfect example of one. I find similarities between me and Jack as we are both interested in what we are passing by, and we both want to share what we have learned with as many people as possible. In this episode, we spoke about Jack's favourite Tudor buildings that you can still see in London to this day.

About Jack:

I’m Jack, I grew up in Essex and London has always been a fascinating and exhilarating place to me. I was delighted to move to London properly in July 2020 after living in Bristol where I studied history at university.

I love history. I am a big fan of museums and books but, even more so, I am interested in the tangible, liveable, and breathable history we are surrounded by as we go about our everyday lives.

I started my blog: Living London History so that I can share my journey discovering London’s fascinating and vibrant past by walking its streets and delving into its hidden corners and encouraging others to do the same! Living London History includes hidden gems and self-guided themed historical walks to help Londoners and visitors explore this wonderful city.
