Field Notes
“For me Hampstead is a place that is steeped not only in my own childhood memories but also in those of a bygone age. Everytime I go back to this magical village I enjoy walking around the narrow side streets and taking in the eclectic architecture. I love to spend time in my favorite bookstore, reading in Keats’ garden, and reconnecting with friends in old haunts like The Holly Bush.”
