Hi! :D

I'm going for a study abroad in London this summer, but I'm going to London about 3 weeks prior to the program to travel around Europe. I'm planning on buying a typical backpack to travel with during those 3 weeks, since I was advised not to take luggage, but I was wondering where I should store my other luggage in the meantime. I'll have more things as I'm doing a study abroad program, I heard that some hostels will store your things, but do they do that even when you won't be staying there?

Thanks much, sorry if this has been asked before!!

You can keep your bags at "Left Luggage" at Heathrow airport for around £5 a day, but after 3 weeks, that'll really add up. The best option, I think, is to have your parents ship the stuff out via the cheapest freight option.. Sometimes this is by an airline, other times by DHL, by boat, etc.

Thanks! I didn't think of that, I'll look into it.
