Much as I said above there are things I like about both places. I know that I am clouded because I live in London and isn't totally representative of the entire UK but the liberal attitude of London suits me very well. I like the world view of the UK in that it is easier to get news coverage of the rest of the world here than back in the States. I like that there isn't much snow in London..lol. Where I grew up there was so much snow that I have frost bite marks on my legs even now. I like the general feeling of public duty here even if people bitch when they do it.
I miss my family back home a good deal, I miss a lot about Philadelphia as a whole because it is the area I grew up in. I miss the easy access type life style of living in the States and sometimes it is good to be the centre of things. Oh, and I miss only having to remember one way of spelling the same dang word. For example, I could write color and not feel like I really should be spelling it colour.
