What once was a quiet neighbourhood, and has now turned into a hip crowd full of foodies and those seeking some culture, live Albertine and Freya, in their cosy and homely space in Bermondsey<\/a>. By day Albertine is the Commissioning Editor at Blogosphere Magazine and Freya a Music Writer (a pretty talented pair right?), and by night you’ll find them either soaking up the London life, blogging all things fashion, or just enjoying some much needed down-time. It’s fair to say, these girls don’t stop.<\/p>\n

And having lived together for two years and two months, we couldn’t wait to grab a quick cuppa and find out what it’s really like living with each other.<\/p>\n

What is the best thing about having a flatmate?<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s great having someone likeminded to live with. We both have very similar aesthetics so we\u2019ve been able to decorate our shared and personal space in a way that we both love. It\u2019s also nice having someone to share a cosy night in with when we both fancy a takeaway and Netflix instead of an evening out!<\/p>\n

What do you love most about your home?<\/h2>\n

It really feels like home. Our place was a lucky find, and we pounced on it as soon as we found it! Adding personal touches to the space (for example, we\u2019ve filled the bookshelves with our current favourite reads) has really helped to add character to the space.<\/p>\n

Where’s your favourite place to go in Bermondsey?<\/h2>\n

Bermondsey Street is full of independent shops and restaurants, so we both love taking a trip there. One of our favourite local places to eat is Village East, they do a brilliant brunch!<\/p>\n

What’s the most annoying thing a flatmate can do?<\/h2>\n

Not tidy up after themselves. We\u2019ve both lived with people who have been really messy before, and it can really ruin the atmosphere of your living space. Luckily, we both like to keep things tidy so this hasn\u2019t been an issue for us (yet)!<\/p>\n

How do you take time out for yourself?<\/h2>\n

Personally, I like to listen to podcasts, so I\u2019ll often run myself a bath and pop one on when I\u2019m feeling stressed out. If I\u2019m not in the mood for that, there\u2019s nothing pizza and a glass of white wine can\u2019t fix!<\/p>\n
