I have been to France and Italy and I urge you to GO GO GO!!! They are both amazing countries, and have such a wonderful feel. Parts are extraordinarily basic and are a culture shock. When we went to Italy, parts were so basic- and the supermarkets only sold the essentials- no ready meals or desserts or anything- just plain ingredients. The houses were often just shacks too. The movie Ratatouille really shows the French culture and it is amazing! Italians are noticeably more aggressive lol. Just the way they do things and shove you out the way. Haha.
Funny, because although I want to go to China and Japan, I am not that inspired at the moment to go to Australia. I don't know really why, but it seems quite similar to the UK.
What exactly is the Juicy Store? The name sounds a little suspicious lol! Here, a shop called Juicy sells loads of hideous and revealing outfits but I am guessing it is not linked to your Juicy Store.
Wow, you are so ambitious! I wouldn't be brave enough to try and pursue a career like that, well maybe. Lol. You're lucky knowing what you want to do, I don't really. I am taking Government and Politics for A levels next academic year and we cover America so I think after that I will want to visit Washington DC.
Oh my goodness, you are making me really want to visit all of these places! I have heard of Cape Cod and it sounds wonderful. I would love to explore America but sadly it is not in the budget.
What state do you live in? Do you have a southern accent? I'm curious, lol.
I get you about television. FTR, it bugs me that British people are literally always the villains on US television shows!!! And also that all of us speak really posh, most Brits have terrible accents... Lol.
I love the London Eye!!! It is best when it's sunset- you go up in the daytime and come down in the dark. I've never been to the British Museum weirdly that I can remember. Do you have palaces like Buckingham Palace in the US?
We do have beautiful and quaint seaside towns, that's what I love is that we have so much history. Often with little piers and cafes selling rock candy. Many are touristy though. To me, it's the little towns and villages that are the best, the ones that aren't flocked with tourists. We have a huge Victorian Manor house down the road from us, still furnished as if it were from 150 years ago, and you can walk through it. It's so fascinating.
I guess it's a little different because America is so huge, whereas the UK is tiny and you can get the euro tunnel to France for £15. From there you have a gateway to the rest of Europe. It is nice to be so close to everything however at the moment I am in love with the US lol.
You have been to so many states!!! Are they all quite different or rather similar? I would imagine California is different to Texas, for example. I've heard that in California people just casually get plastic surgery and show up for work the next day or two! Here, that seems really unusual. OMG you live in North Carolina that is my dream state!!! Well actually I can't decide between NC, SC and PA. I wanted to take a holiday to the Carolinas a while ago. The weather seems perfect, cold at winter and hot at summer!!! And I didn't even know thee were mountains there haha! I guess I forget that most Americans are not close to the beach, wow!
