During our stay in London we will sleep in a small hostel near Victoria Station called The Grapevine Hotel.
It is not a luxurious hotel but it is comfortable for four nights. The rooms have no toilet inside as the bathrooms are shared. In the morning we have continental breakfast included.
Some practical advice will be given along the year, but you have to bring a towel and shower shoes, not a lot of clothes, comfortable shoes to walk and shirts or jumpers that you can wear and take off depending on the moment, as the weather can be cold, then hot, then warm and rainy and different along the day.
Electric gadgets are not a very good idea, as in Great Britain, plugs have three holes. If you really need it, you can buy an adaptor, but I do not think it is so necessary. At the hotel they have hairdryers.

This is where you can add your information about Chaucer’s life or any other kind of material that could be of interest for the class. Remember this month’s writing is Chaucer’s or Beckett’s biography.
