What I Never Knew About London England and Why You Should Go!
Our last leg of our trip! After touring Switzerland and Paris, we made it to London. Stick around as I share about our travel experiences in London!
Also, check out this cool list of observations I made about London from an American perspective:
1. Maybe it’s because they speak the same language as me, but it sounds like they are louder than Swiss or French people
2. No cell phone connection in the subway, therefore, a lot more people are talking with each other
3. In the subway, they keep the windows between cars open to allow a free flowing draft to keep it cool (versus Korea where I lived before)
4. There are a rests on the subway and more cushioned seats (versus Korea where I lived before), lower ceiling and super low doors
5. Very efficient dry and soap dispensers next to each other
6. Fridges don’t keep things very chilled. Went to convenient store and monster drink was almost warm
7. More corgi dogs here
8. Sorry I know I’m a bit of a pain for “excuse me” when getting out of the way in right restaurant space
9. People run into each other in the subway frequently without saying sorry even when it’s a hard bump
10. Often times, the light switch is on the outside wall of the bathroom instead of inside the bathroom.
11. Lady spilt coffee on ground next to me at the train station. The husband asked if I was ok and that it didn’t get all over me. A moment later, he went out of his way to ask me once more “are you sure you’re ok?” As he puts his hand on my shoulder.
12. Townhome in America is alley burrough or terraced house and semi-detached in England, or flat
13. When ordering coffee, they ask if you want black or white
14. More vegan friendly than America

Hi, my name is Tim, and I'm a former expat who lived in South Korea, and I taught English to all ages including kindergarten to adults. During my 5.5 year stint there, I learned valuable life lessons about myself and the world around me. My journey has brought me back to the U.S. as I now have an amazing family. Married to a beautiful Korean girl and giving birth to a 2/3 Korean & 1/3 Caucasian baby boy, I share my life back in America and how I've adjusted from culture shock to reverse culture to finding my own third-sub culture/world of my own and where I fit into society. After building a highly successful real estate business from the ground up and living in the most diverse county in the Southeastern United States, I find myself running into rare chance encounters on numerous occasions here in Atlanta that make me realize there is more to life than meets the eye.
