Juan

Hello! I'm Juan.

I love London and I've explored it obsessively every day for years.

However, London is the most visited city in Europe, and every day there's more tourist traps and higher prices.

I believe Londoners deserve better, so I started Capital of Cool to filter the noise and highlight only the parts of London worth your time.
