Greetings from England!

It's very strange finally being in a place that I have planned towards for so long. But nevertheless, I am finally in England, and I send my greetings to all you good people back home. I hope you all are well. I don't want to make this a long post as I have some things to do, but I do have some pictures to show you that you might be interested in seeing. Things have been going well so far, and I'm getting more situated and comfortable with each passing minute. Everyone I've met has a similar air of culture shock about them as I surely do, but I've been very lucky I think to have met some very mature, kind, intelligent people. So, without further adieu, here are the pictures!


On Monday the sky was blue for a brief moment. I decided to document it as proof that England isn't ALWAYS rainy. I do really enjoy the weather here though, despite the rain.

 This is the main avenue of shopping in the center of town. Those three characters are a few of the International Students that I've met, they are from Austria, Canada, and Ecuador, left to right.

 I just wanted to get a picture of this guy, so I took three.
 Aren't they creepy?


 As it would happen, passing this road on the bus back to campus from town, I snapped a picture. Later yesterday evening I met a student from Germany named Tim, who apparently lives right off this road. Its very strange sometimes the way that things are connected. Watch the movie Jeff, Who Lives at Home if that sort of thing interests you.

There is Tim, who lives in a home off of a street that I took a picture of 4 hours before I met him. And a few other International Students whom I spent the evening with yesterday.

Well, cheers folks!
