2. Americans are way louder than any other nationality.
3. Sometimes getting lost is the best way to get your bearings in a new city.
4. People watching is one of my all time favorite activities. Though, I need to learn not to stare.
5. I did not pack appropriately... or it could just be the anxiety of not having everyyyything I own close at hand.
6. Pictures are the BEST souvenirs.
7. Living in a foreign country has given me a renewed interest in international news and global concerns.
8. I actually love reading The Economist.
9. A long walk is way more enjoyable than a long shorter run- plus you can actually take in your surroundings.
10. Not taking the elevator (ever) has made a huge difference in my leg strength (no wonder Europeans are fit).
11. Even when I am not in a hurry, I love rushing up the left side of the escalator when leaving or entering the tube station- it makes me feel like I am on my way to somewhere important.
12. It's refreshing not watching T.V. every day. But I do miss the morning news.
13. I also miss having my own coffee maker-- I have discovered that I am a coffee addict.
14. Flying from Florence to London on an Italian airline somehow cured my fear of flying. Perhaps it was the language barrier?
15. Afternoon tea is the perfect 3:00PM pick-me-up :)
16. I love the Waitrose (London's small supermarket chain). But, I miss the convenience of huge American grocery stores (neverrr thought I would say this).
17. I can see myself living in London after graduation.
18. My entire life, I have been a fast walker-- in London, I am just a average-paced walker...
* More to come!
