I spent the afternoon wandering through the Tate Modern’s fabulousity today.  Beyond the great Voyeurism exhibition I saw and the permanent collections, what I loved most about this museum is how it exudes warmth.  I got the feeling that it’s a super friendly community of regular folks who come to the museum, see some art, have a sandwich or pot of tea, chat with folks, and then donate a few pounds.  If it makes me feel like that in one day, I imagine it must be quite special for people who actually live in London and like art.
My other favorite part is that it’s free, which I think all museums should be.  I had a cup o’ tea and saw the exhibition compliments of a couchsurfer, though.  I hope to write more about this network of people showing incredible hospitality soon.

About

Blogging from my little corner of Seoul, Korea, where I'll be until next fall as a Fulbrighter. My stated research project concerns the experiences of young North Korean defectors in South Korea, but my personal goal is to eat my way through every type of street food. Also, I'd like to personally meet a couple that match-dresses. Say hi! ---Lilian lilee27 -- gmail
