Greetings to all! I have returned from my 3months in the US of A. An awesome time was had by all! Got back home today and was "welcomed" by rain and freezing temperatures. I give my tan a week before it fades! Hope you're all well!!

Well, I would say welcome back, but since I just joined a couple of days ago, I'll just throw out a big hello! So where all did you go while you were over here?

Sunny Britain? Are you actually kidding? It's done nothing but rain since I arrived back! I didn't come back for this! I had an awesome time. Was staying in Hyannis on the Cape for the summer, but managed to spend some time in Boston and NYC. Boston is beautiful and will be my home this time next yr (hopefully). Didn't wanna come home! Good news is though the place we worked all summer have offered to sponsor our visas if we decide to go back

Boston's a very historic city. Old North Church, Freedom Trail, USS Constitution, Paul Revere House...

I loved Massachusetts! Such a nice area. The Cape is awesome but I don't think I could live there...but I wouldn't say no to a summer house! (If I can ever afford one!). Boston is a beautiful city. Have changed my mind about moving to NYC next yr...Boston is nicer and not as hectic!

Boston's kind of a scaled down version of NYC.
The cape is too crowded in the summer for me. Too much traffic until Labor Day. The beaches of the north shore right up into New Hampshire are better, although the water's colder. Rye, New Hampshire has awesome rocky beaches and very little crowds. Very typical New England. Try it someday.

Ah, I've been up that ways quite a few times, though I'm not much of a beach person. ...Western Massachusetts is where it's all at.

Don't wanna start a Massachusetts war! I loved the Cape. So pretty. Went to Provincetown one day...that was an experience! A very strange place...good fun though.

Went to Provincetown one day...that was an experience! A very strange place... Yeah, that sums it up rather nicely.
