As an Australian, I grew up with alot of English TV shows in the 90s. As a result, places like this have drawn me and I'm dying to go and see them lol. Old cottages, gardens, "postman pat" style roads next to a cobblestone wall haha, it's so british! I'm 35, been to so many places but it's definitely about damn time i go visit England.

Sounds like you need to book yourself a trip and come explore the English countryside 🥰 There is so much charm and beauty about much of the country and every county is so different.

I'm Australian too and I was lucky enough to visit the UK twice as a girl. Then at 21 I went for 6 months working and holidaying. I got to look after older people in their homes, aged care. Live in aged care so the people that could afford that had gorgeous homes. I would say save up enough money to go for a few weeks. Stay in London a few days but then hire a car and drive but make sure you go to the very south, then make your way up and visit Wales and Scotland. Each place is very different. You can get great deals on cars and come back and drop them off near the airport on your way home. There are so many different places to see that are all different. But go. You'll love it.

Oh, I loved every inch of it! Especially the dog lamp in the niche! Americans, in general, do not appreciate preserving what is already there and quick to gut every quirk and historical artifact with cheap new replacements. In with the new, out with the old, even if the function is the same. It's so wonderful that you appreciate what is there. 🇺🇸

Then there's a third kitty called Lottie but she's a little more elusive. Hopefully I'll catch her when I return and do a full garden tour :)
