Book shop exploring (Brixton โ†’ Dulwich Park)

Details

In the digital age๐Ÿ’ป๐Ÿ“ก๐Ÿ“ฑ, do you still like getting a physical book to read?
Where do you buy them? Amazon? Waterstone? Blackstone?

How about join us for a bookshop crawl, let's try to find some hidden gems of independent bookshops. (Or just tag along for a chat๐Ÿ˜)

Find out more book shops to try, this time we will be heading down to south London. We will meet at Brixton tube station, then walk towards Dulwich Park.

There will be 4-5 book shops in total, never been to most of them, so it will be some new experience for me as well. Upon finishing, we can find somewhere to sit and chat about books.

The two hour time is just a guidance, some shops take longer and some are less. If you ever want to stay in one shop for longer (I know, been there, done that๐Ÿ˜‚) feel free to do so, you can join us at other shops. (See itinerary below)

Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with any of the shops, so you are not obliged to buy any books, just get whatever you like.
