In spite of all of the little issues I have with this country (dodgy plumbing, pedestrians don't have the right of way, lack of applesauce, etc), I'm REALLY going to miss it. Here's what I'll miss the most:
1. My AMAZING new friends (not the girl in the front, she doesn't even go here):
2. Easy access to Europe and ADVENTURE
3. Walking everywhere like a boss
4. Public transportation!
5. Pubs
6. Christmas Markets
7. The vernacular
8. The birds, especially the Nightingales (definitely not the seagulls though)
9. Brothers Cider
10. The sense of empowerment one experiences when forced out of one's comfort zone

I'm sure about 2 weeks after I get home I'll be making this face:
