February is here! After what felt like the longest month ever, we finally made it to February, which means that sunshine is just around the corner, sunsets will occur after 5 p.m., and life is ready to get warmer. February is also the month we celebrate love. Fancy a Galentine's? Or a box of chocolates with your favourite one? Let's see what we can do in London during this month of love and anticipation. 

• Head to Southbank Centre: Southbank Centre organises loads of free events throughout the month, things that can be done solo or with a friend! From Tango dance lessons to Poetry read-along, Southbank Centre offers something for everyone, completely free of cost! 
• Take your Valentine to Sky Garden: Sky Garden offers free viewing spots which are ticketed. Book your tickets online and take your special person to see the London skyline. The gorgeous viewing centre also has a coffee shop which serves hot and cold delicacies and is a must-visit in February. 
• Canary Wharf & Battersea Park Light Show: The annual Canary Wharf & Battersea Park's respective light show is back! Head to these locations to catch these amazing displays and artwork, completely free of cost!
• Sign up for Hotel Chocolat and get a voucher: Craving chocolate for yourself? Wanting to give some chocolates to that special someone? Want a chocolate and wine night with your girlies? Sign up for Hotel Chocolat's app and get a 5-pound voucher! Their boxes range between 5 to 10 pounds and are the perfect way to celebrate this month, not spending much.
• Head to Covent Garden: Covent Garden is bustling during Valentine's week with brand pop-ups and street theatre performances. The area offers the bustling air of love of the city and is also very close to campus. Perfect for a stroll through with either your girlies or those you'd like to spend Valentine's with! 
• Witness a Gorgeous Sunrise at Parliament Hill: Head to Hampstead Heath to witness a breathtaking sunrise from Parliament Hill. This viewpoint is empty during the mornings and allows you to witness the entirety of the London skyline during sunrise. It is truly a moment to witness.
