London is wonderful. Yes, I know it, and I will readily admit it. But there are some things I simply don't like about living across the pond. Here are the main ones:
- Almost no crosswalks
- Everything is so small. It's tough for a giantess such as myself.
- They haven't invented air conditioning yet.
- Exchange rate killing me? Um, yes.
- The assumption by some (NOT all) that all Americans are boorish, loud, obese McDonald's-chomping xenophobes. (And the apparant surprise when you aren't. Though the loud thing is true.)
- The lowered drinking age makes people get carried away/annoying/broken bones. (At least, that's true for the people I know.)
- Noise outside my window early in the morning. Why are you jackhammering at 6:30 a.m.? Shouldn't you be sleeping?
- Celsius? So that means it's... what temperature? Do I need a jacket?
- The tourists are starting to get on my nerves. Yeah, yeah, I know I'm a tourist, too, but seriously, people, crowding your entire 12-member family and all our luggage around the Tube entrance is just dumb. I am trying to walk, here.
- Being 5-6 hours ahead of everyone I want to talk to is very hard.
Love,
Amy
