When I was single and lived in London, I used to love walking through the city during the evening and into the night, being surrounded by people but not having to take part in any socialising. It's the flipside to the pleasure of being entirely alone when hillwalking in the middle of the Scottish highlands.

Thank you. You've just given words to the je ne sais quoi that's hung around me when it comes to enjoying city living as a complete introvert.

Now put on Burial on your headphones and have the complete experience of a solitude in a big City.
