Eccentric New Yorker with big hair, big personality and tons of energy to show you the best, non-mainstream bars and music scene in London. I have lived in London for almost 10 years and I also know the best markets and independent fashion shops to buy unique garments. I'm a proud father to a 1 year old so I have lately discovered cool, baby-friendly places and restaurants where adults can have a good time. I consider London my hometown; it is vibrant, forever morphing and just really cool. Don't stick to zone 1, there is a much bigger London out there!

Hi there! My name is Amy, I work as a midwife but I am also an alternative model who loves rock/goth/industrial/metal/ebm music and also a bit of a geek. I am into comics, science fiction (Star Wars!!!!) and yeah, basically into books. Also a creative who designs clothes, candles... not too much spare time though. I am from the north of Spain, but I lived in Barcelona for 6 years, Manchester for 6 months and London, where my heart belongs, for the last 5 years. I would love to show you London through my eyes, so keep in contact :) Cheers, Amy xx

My name is Holly and I'm a 25 year-old actress and musician. Music and theatre are my two main passions and my work takes me to the best dive bars, pub theatres, hidden gems of converted spaces, famous buildings and arenas all over the city. If you want to explore the trendiest neighbourhoods in London and discover the music and artistic scene of the city, from jazz, to rock and opera, I would love to show you around. I know Shoreditch and East London very well and I would be great company on an unscripted walk-around the area.

Hi, my name is Winnie and I've lived in London for more than four years. I love London for its diversity - it really is a true 'Melting Pot' bringing together hundreds of different cultures. If you walk down any street, you're likely to hear a variety of languages being spoken. Living here means being able to discover new places all the time - whether it's a Buddhist temple you've not seen before, a new farmers' market selling great cheese, a new pop-up restaurant making amazing pizza, or just seeing some incredibly talented street performers by chance. People say London is expensive. But it's what you make of it. There are plenty of free activities in this city: most galleries don't charge entrance fees, pubs and bars everywhere regularly put on free gigs ranging from rock 'n roll and punk to jazz. But if you prefer to pay for a bit of luxury, London shall not disappoint. There are plenty of high-end cocktail bars, restaurants and experiences to choose from. As for me - I absolutely love meeting new people and learning about their cultures. I'm a journalist by trade so naturally, I ask lots of - sometimes stupid- questions. :-) I'm an avid horse rider, love cooking and baking and exercising: I do spinning, boot camps, exercise classes, swimming and squash.

I am an experienced tour guide, artist and designer, with a passion for London. I was born and brought up here in London, which is the most vibrant mix of old and new. It has three thousand years of history, yet is always re-inventing itself. So it remains the most contemporary and cosmopolitan in the world, brim full of art, design, architecture, theatre and music. My interests are mostly based around, and my background is largely in; the Arts. Particularly fine art, pop art, graphic art, street art and architecture. I have a university BA Hons degree in Art and Visual Communication and I am also a designer and artist. There are many human stories to tell, behind London, behind it's history and behind it's art.

I'm an American expat in London for over 17 years. I've always been an Anglophile and moved to the U.K. because of my love of British history, culture, pop culture, music, fashion, television, and movies. I'm a bit of a geek but I guess some people would consider me to be cool. I'm a very creative, artistic person and have two Bachelor degrees; one in fashion design and the other in media production. I'm also a DJ and have worked in the music industry on and off for years. I fell in love with London the moment I stepped off the plane at Heathrow and basically became a Londoner by the time the Piccadilly line got into central London. I love the diversity of London. I love the history and architecture. I love the culture, high and low. I've lived here for over 15 years and I'm still discovering new things about it all the time. I'm a great CityUnspricted Local because no one else is as passionate about London as I am.
