London for the past 3 years. I really dont like it to be honest. I think people are way too cold, they dont smile, they look at you funny if you are talking loudly. I dont know, its just like everyone is either outrageous, or constipated. And there are lots of crooks, from store owners trying to short change you, to big time crooks!! Its a hustler's town!
I dont like big cities anyways. I am only here, because I was dumb enough to choose a grad school in London to go to. I am done in june anyways. I like the multi culturalism, but its segragated. Everyone lives on their side and have neighborhoods, that are all segragated. I am not used to that, grew up in Africa, and in Tucson Arizona, so I have always seen people mixing.

Anyways, naa, I dont like London at all! Its expensive, and I dont like the people here.

I always heard America was more of a melting pot than the UK, but others have said the US is more segregated. I guess the former must be true. I really wish people would mix with eachother more.

I am sure there are places in America like that, if you go to big cities, is where you see it most, even in DC, or NY! But if you go to a regular town, or a college town where there is a major university ( I lived in one) , its not segragated, and so much more enjoyable. I cant wait to go back to be honest!

Thats srtereotypes that you hear. I guarantee you, people from the south, bar some of the notorisouly racist cities, are a lot friendlier, and integrated, than people from the north and big cities. GO to Washington DC and check it out! IVe spent some time there, so I know about that city at least.
