“	Originally Posted By: FightingFat From an external perspective, I think American culture is very obviously unique and something Americans have every right to be proud of. My experience is always of a people who are very polite and welcoming and very patriotic. I like the NYC style and the whole 'home on the range' thing you have going on. Not so sure about the 'California dreaming' thing Right, now, where are my skiis? I'm off to Les Trois Vallees!!!!	”

That's good to know. It's funny, my hubby and I really want to move to England because we're tired of politics here. We'd probably come back eventually, we just need a new perspective on life.

I have heard from a lot of people that New Yorkers are very polite. I know a couple of New Yorkers that have moved to Florida, where I live. I always respected their outspokenness, and wished I could be brave like them. Florida is... well I think it has potential, but it's too conservative for my husband and I. We actually looked at California as our new destination for a really long time.

Do you enjoy living in England? Are you a native? I heard when you travel to Europe you should not wear jeans and sneakers or else people will know right away you're an American.
