Hello and welcome to my first blog of this trip to the US of A. I arrived here on the last day of May and have gone from Tennessee, through Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin and Michigan, I have experienced Memorial Day, my first baseball game, Independence Day and had more BBQ’s these past few weeks than I have the rest of my life.
So every few days I’ll attempt to write a new blog, looking at the similarities and the differences between the British culture I experienced for 30 years and the American way of life as I see it. I hope to cover subjects such as sports, food (I’ve put on weight, I can still fit in the clothes I bought with me….well the hats anyway), socializing, people and views (and hopefully crack a few jokes along the way). If anyone has a subject or view they’d like me to cover then comment below or message me and I’ll try to do it and give a mention as well.
So just a quick hello and keep your eyes peeled for the next blog either tomorrow or Friday, time to feel at home watching Manchester play ‘soccer’ on ESPN…..it’s nice the commentary is so condescending ;)
