    Experiences in english countries

    I thought that it could be a good idea for this subsection to explain our experiences in other countries.
    Do you have been living in UK, USA, Australia...? How was it?

    I do live in the UK. It is pretty cool.



    I don't mean that it is cool like a celebrity.
    I mean that you have to wear your scarf even in Summer.

    No, seriously. It is quite nice. In London we have roughly around 23-25 degrees in July and first half of August, which is really nice. You don't have those awful 35-40 degrees for 2 months. The problem? It rains, at least, a couple of days a week. The food is good. Not the English traditional one, but you can find anything you want from around the world. Furthermore, the multiculturalism is fantastic, and I have friends from many different countries like India, Iran (really), Iraq (yes, Iraq), Russia, Japan, Worst Korea, New Zealand... I love it.
    I miss tapas and some other Spanish traditions. Yes, of course you can find tapas here. There are many tapas bars. But it is terribly overpriced. You can spend about 10 euros just having a Coke and a small tapa, which is ludicruous.
    Another thing I like is the broadband. I pay just under 10 euros (7.50GBP) for my broadband internet connection. And I have no ads on TV during F1 Grand Prix.

    Yes, I have lived in other country, in UK and I am still there. It is not bad, but I miss the Spanish weather and food.

    What about you? Have you lived or are you living in a foreign country?

    Think about New Zealand.

    In the UK, the weather is rubbish.
    In Australia you have venomous spiders, snakes, crocodiles, ....
    NZ is the paradise.

    Yeah, not bad idea , but just be aware that Australia is very very far from Spain, so be sure that you won't be able to come to Spain as often as if you were in UK. Actually, I was thinking of going to Australia but I declined the idea because it is very expensive (it's easy to run out of money)

    I am living in UK and if you are thinking of going to London to improve your English, forget about it. There is almost no English people living in London, so the last place I'd recommend you to go would be London. I've been living in London for almost 2 years, now, I am living in other place and the difference is huge! If you want my recommendation, go to any place in the South of England. Avoid any northern than Bristol-Oxford-Cambridge as they speak a not-easy-to-understand English .

    I am checking the pictures of NZ and it is really amazing.

    Regarding Australia, it is not that bad . I have Australian friends, and they say that the "dangerous" animals, insects, whatever, are not in the cities, and you have to go deep into the wild to find them. Of course there are a lot, but you won't be in danger in the city. For example, in the north coast of Australia is where most likely to find deathly jellyfish and white sharks, but it is very well known, so nobody goes there (except surfers ).

    Mmmm...they think we are a lost cause XD but the same for the Italian, French, Greek,... , so not too much to worry about jajaja
    Also, in general, South American people speak much more better English than us, and the same for the Portuguese.
