Not all of us love the commute.
While you can find positives in the camaraderie of a packed tube, or delight in a forgotten chocolate bar in your rucksack, let’s be honest, it’s a pain.
But once I get to The Crown Estate office, just a stone’s throw from Piccadilly Circus, the memories of GWR drift away.
Why?
For me, it’s all about choice. And in the West End where I work, choice is everywhere you look.
The choice of cafés, bars, restaurants, shops. The choice of places to swoop in and out, or places to stop, stay, and linger. The choice to check out that new restaurant you’ve heard such good things about, or grab something quick and easy, that won’t break the bank.
As people, it’s important for us to have choice. And we’re truly spoiled for it here.
That’s why I’ll happily put up with the travel time. And the fare. And the packed tubes.
Because when I get to the West End, I’ve all the possibility I could ask for, right on my doorstep.
P.S. if you’re considering moving offices, and want to delve deeper into what the West End has to offer, have a look at our subpage Workplaces by The Crown Estate
