When trying to impress our partners, we usually think of extravagant plans that cost a fortune in an attempt of becoming “the most romantic of the year”. You will be surprise to read these alternative ideas to do in London (yes, you´ve read it well) that won´t cost you a penny.

• Comedy at Theatre Royal: it is said that by making someone laugh you can conquer his or her heart. Try your luck with Comic Mondays at this very romantic venue, which hosts a free comedy night every first day of the week kicking off at 8pm.

• Sunday Flower Market at Columbia Road: if you still haven´t wandered along this road, make a plan this weekend and stroll with your partner through this quite hippy market and get your lover some flowers! It is the best place to get good deals, but make sure to get there early in the morning!
