I met a friend living in London, Brixton. I asked him, “If London is an animal, what is it and why?” He said, “A Mongrel Dog. People often move to London alone, and because they come alone, they’re forced to learn how to stand up for themself the same way a Mongrel Dog has to learn how to bite and scavenge if they want to survive the street. London toughens you, it makes you more resilient. I’ve been here 30 years, seen a lot, and still, I love London, I feel like I can survive anywhere now.”
