British Guy Reacts to "What it's like Living in America!" 

Twitch streams - www.twitch.tv/adamcouser

What it's like living in America depends on where you live in America. I'm saying that as an American. The US is huge. I've visited 23 of 50 states in different parts of the country. The US is like living in several different countries at once The west coast is nothing like the deep south. The midwest is totally different than the east coast and so own.

Since the US doesn't have royals, the finding of 1. a former King, 2. in a parking lot....it's like someone finding Thomas Jefferson under a Walmart. Absolutely amazing. He died before the US was even a twinkling of an idea. So yeah, our shorter history makes your longer history fascinating to many of us.

American pronunciation: aluminum. British pronunciation: aluminium. (The red bird was a cardinal, found all over the U.S. - and the state bird of my home, North Carolina.)

Your last comment about 'home being home' is by far the most American way of thinking! It's being proud of where your from but open enough to appreciate other places! I love your channel and this is just one of the many reasons why! ❤

The bird is a cardinal. They are found in quite a few states ( and I believe in Canada and Mexico). Beautiful birds. The females are kinda of dull brownish while the males are that beautiful bright red.

The bird is an American Cardinal.

6:00 the British liked to change how they spelled words and said words because they sounded to poor/ peasanty. Like Aluminum. Believe it or not here in the US we spell and pronounce it correctly with how the person who discovered it wanted it. Years later the Brits changed it to sound higher class. Lawerence did a video on it a few years ago.

I was stationed in the UK for 3 years and in Korea for a year. I enjoyed the experience of being in those countries, but like Dorothy said, "There's no place like home". I'm happy where I am.

That bird is a cardinal, I have them in my yard all the time.

“Breathes there a man with soul so dead, who never to himself hath said, ‘This is my own, my native land.’”

I lived in Japan for six years and while I did love living in Tokyo, I love living in Colorado more. I have family in Slovakia and I’ve considered moving there.

If I had to live in another country I would choose Ireland, not sucking up. My sister and I have always wanted to visit Ireland. It's the only place we've ever considered other than the states. That is the reason I am so excited about your willingness to share your hometown with us, can't wait for another tour. The red bird is a Cardinal.

And I for one can't blame you Adam, when you took us on a tour of your town where you live; and it was a beautiful town, the people seemed very friendly and nice, the beach area was amazing, everything looked so clean and quiet. As for where I would rather live, I am like you meaning I would love to travel and visit other Countries and towns and see how they lived but could not live anywhere else but America, I don't think I could change my ways or lifestyle to any other, I am comfortable here, happy here and way too old to change now. America has a lot of flaws don't get me wrong but I can never live anywhere else in the World.

like many living in the USA depends where you live cause it differs massively from state to state and even town to town sometimes

I was born and raised in England, family moved to Michigan when I was 16 - did 2 years in American high school. It's been a trip...

The bird is a Cardinal and that was a male. The female is brown.

that red bird on the wire is called a cardinal

I dated someone whose parents were from England and honestly, I could barely understand a word they said. I didn't like being alone with them because I would just nod my head, smile a lot, and look for cues about what they were talking about. They probably thought I was some kind of idiot. Almost 2 million Americans live in Mexico, along with thousands of Canadians. In fact, I'm planning to move to Mexico. I've spent a lot of time there. The cost of living is great but the most important reason people cite for staying there is that the people are incredibly friendly, social, and welcoming. It blows me away how kind, respectful, and polite they are, especially compared to the US where mutual respect has been gone for a long time now. Old people here in the US often live very lonely lives. In Mexico, old people are considered important members of the community and people like being around them. That alone can extend your life expectancy. Neighbors go out of their way to know you and spend time with you. Yes, Mexico has problems but most people aren't affected by them and the social culture there more than makes up for it according to most. I recently spent a few months in Mexico at my parent's house (they moved there a long time ago). They were out of town for a week and I was alone at the house. One night I was watching TV with the lights off. The old ladies of the neighborhood just walked in calling my name. They told me that they knew I was there but they were concerned that the lights were off and were checking up on me to see that I was OK. They looked around the kitchen and knew I hadn't eaten and they began cooking for me. Then they made me some dessert. They ended staying for 4 hours and we just talked and talked. Those old ladies were so much fun to talk to and I was glad they came in. Staying at my parent's, it wasn't unusual to come out of the shower to find 23 people (I counted) in the house who came to see my 90 year old Dad on a Saturday afternoon. You will never be alone in Mexico.

Embrace where you are. ✨️

that bird was a cardinal i think cardinals and blue jays are so beautiful

Adam, Yes the English language started off in the same place in around 1620 but with time the language in the US and UK developed in different ways. As far as aliens, I'll give you a government response, "I can not confirm or deny that which may or may not exist."😏

Good afternoon Adam… Again let me tell you how happy I am to be reconnected with you as a reactor as you’re one of the first reactors I ever started following back when you sound Dimash and Marcelito Pomoy😁 tell you that I have been fortunate enough to have lived all around the US the one thing I can assure you is most of the places that you see that are beautiful are very difficult to live in unless your occupation allows you to work from home or you work in some sort of outdoor capacity. There are some beautiful coastal towns as well as wonderful towns in the mountains such as Denver but everyone travels there so they are very crowded. I remember seeing you surprised that a lot of Americans do not have passports but the fact is that this country is so vast that a lot of the beautiful things that you see on your reactions are the vacations that we take without having to leave the country. Now to answer your question about living abroad. I could easily live in another country because while the United States has many tremendous qualities, Canada and a lot of European countries definitely are more cultured than the US. This country is extremely divided and there is a lot of hate. The United States is well behind Europe when it comes to the arts diversity sexuality and even just sex for that matter… Sounds funny but very true. If I were you I would come visit the United States as you’re going to soak in as much as you can glad you live in your seaside town in Northern Ireland because I’m sure people are warm and welcoming and for the most part probably just let you be you. please let me know if I’m mistaken and I’ll talk to you soon

Between 2016 and 2020 There's almost NOTHING I didn't think of that wasn't living somewhere else.

I'm an American that lived for a year in Scotland. When my husband decided to move to America I told him I'd never again live in Scotland. He didn't care...he became a citizen, got a good job a nice house next to LakeMichigan, (on an acre of land) .

I've lived in Okinawa and Germany and loved both. My dad was in the military, so we moved a lot.

We’re American and lived in the Uk (1994-96). I absolutely loved it and would move back in a heartbeat! It help if you’re an Anglophile. ❤️

Yes, we did lived in England for 6 years. My husband was stationed at RAF Mildenhall & we lived in a village near RAF Lakenheath, Hockwold. I had the opportunity to get stationed in Ramstein, Germany. Unfortunately it fell through. I did notice that even though we spoke English, it was difficult to understand the different accents. Most difficult ones for me was the Irish & Scottish. I loved living in UK

bird at 6:18 is the Northern cardinal

To answer your question: I feel like rather than dreaming of where we could move to, people should dream about how we can make where we are better and then visit other wonderful places to learn/grow/etc. While I'm sure there are places that I could exist quite happily, I also can not really see myself living in Europe. Don't get me wrong, it's lovely (what little I've seen of it). For me, it's just that I really am just happy with where our country came from and where it can go if "we the people" choose to make it happen... I also would truly miss the natural beauty (all of our National and State Parks) far too much to stay away long.

I love being an American and living in West Virginia. My wife and I own a beautiful home in the best area in the state, and my son is already a success in the trades.

Born and raised in America, I have been living in Africa for 11 years now .

I am a veteran and have lived in a few different states. The US is so vast that there’s no one way. Things are different all over. That’s a big part of why Americans don’t travel abroad. We don’t really need to. I live in Tennessee. Born and raised. But I’ve lived from Florida to California. And it’s all about preference and comfort. I loved California so much but when I started having children, I wanted to raise them in the country like I was raised. I still miss the sunsets and ocean…. but every morning, these beautiful Appalachian Mountains make me happy to be alive.

I, sort of, lived in England, and Germany in the 1970s. England was much simpler compared with Germany. I found myself more isolated in Germany due to my abysmal failure at learning German. My slightly introverted personality melded fairly well with English society in rural Suffolk.

I have a friend from England who is a realtor here in Los Angeles. I believe his accent is what helps him to be successful when showing homes.

I’m originally from Chicago, but have lived in NYC for 3 decades. A couple years ago, I spent a month in Edinburgh because spouse is an actor and he was doing a play for Fringe Festival. I could easily live there, or London without hesitation.

I was a Russian Linguist in the US Army from 1984-1992. I lived in Moscow as the translator from 86-87. Yes it was the Soviet Union then. It was really strange, but I enjoyed it. Then my wife and I have lived in Abu Dhabi and London a few years back for about a year in each country. We love to travel and have been all over Europe. Our next trip is planned for Ireland. We recently found out that both of us are 82% and 87% UK/Ireland. We had no ideal and learned from two different genetics tests. Therefore, we want to go see the home country. I didn't enjoy London, but the rest of the country was great. We never got time to visit Ireland while in the UK. Now Adam (I am assuming this is your name, sorry if it is not), I have three boys and I am assuming you are near their ages. My oldest just turned 30. My second son will be 29 in August and my youngest son will be 22 in November. My advice to them was to travel as far and as much as possible. I am an attorney and most of my work is inside. However, I will take cases all over the world. I have a baccalaureate and a master degree in engineering and a Juris Doctorate in Law (last is the degree required to be an attorney along with passing the BAR exam). I use this background as well as being a Russian linguist to get work in the international business law. This allows my wife and me to travel around the world. However, as I started this paragraph, Adam, get out and see the world. Travel everywhere in the UK and surrounding areas. Enjoy life, because you will turn around (expression meaning will happen before you know it) and you will be my age (56) with adult kids and never have been anywhere. I see people my age or a little older that has never even been more than one state away from Arkansas and this just amazes me. It also allows you to see people and meet friends all over the world. Anyway, enough rambling. I really enjoy your channel and have watched Lawrence for a while, but just found you recently.

I've lived in many states.. I can imagine myself anywhere in America. I'd not be happy elsewhere

When I was in Spain I thought to myself, "I could live here". In truth, unless I had to move to another country for some reason like a job or something, I wouldn't live anywhere else but the US. I enjoy traveling and love seeing how other people live but I'm an American in my soul. I still plan to visit Italy and Ireland so maybe I will feel differently but I think it's unlikely. We should all be connected to our country in our hearts and be proud of where we are from. Certainly there are circumstances where people want to move for safety and a better life but that doesn't mean they don't still feel a love for their heritage.

My husband"s family is from Scotland (directly, they emigrated in the 70s) and we seriosuly considered moving about 12 years ago. I"m very glad we didint. I'm from TX and I don't think I could handle the dreariness, I'm used to a lot of sun and dealing with a years worth of rain (50 inches) in a few days/weeks 😂. Also, I'm very accustomed to our freedoms and conveniences and after every visit over seas, I want American Plumbling and wide open spaces. That said, Scotoand is incredibly beautful, the people were warm and absolutely hilarious. If I was well to do, I would wish fir a low slung house on some weather beaten isle there.

I lived in the UK (Suffolk, England) for two years and loved it. If I moved back, I’d love to look at Southwest England, Greater Manchester area, Glasgow, or Belfast… or in around Dublin or Cork. On the European continent , I’d look at Switzerland, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Northern or Western Germany.

Hey Adam, You've reacted to American homes. Laurence Brown purchased his first U.S. home in the Chicago area a year ago January. He posted a tour in LITP. This is more in line with a typical American house an neighborhoods in the 1940-50s.

Congratulations on your baby girl! Yeah I don’t think I could move to another country. I moved from the east to the west and although I’ve adapted, there’s still things I miss about the east.

I was born in Upstate New York, moved to Florida at 11, and then to Indiana at 35, where I still reside 26 years later. I live in a small town now. I lived in a very small village in New York, and in very large towns - St. Petersburg & Miami, Florida. There are pros and cons anywhere you live. Yes, I have dreamt about living in either one of your thatched roof cottages or stunning barn remodels in the beautiful UK countryside. However, I could never leave my home country to live primarily anywhere else. ❤️✝️🇺🇸 The bird was a red cardinal. Beautiful!

I moved to the little town I am in, in Wisconsin in 6th grade. All I wanted through High School was to get the hell out of here. Now I am in my 60s back in the house I grew up in. Go figure.

After staying in the UK for a month, 3 weeks in England and one week in Scotland, I could live in either with no problem. I enjoyed London but dayum the amount of people. I liked Dover the best so I could see myself living there before anywhere else over there.

Twice in my life I’ve moved to new states where I knew no one (aside from my husband) and started from scratch with a new house, new job, etc. Even having done that I don’t think I’d actually be able to move to a different country. I’m old now but looking back at it, I think it would have been fun had I done so, especially if I moved to a country whose language I understood. Being able to communicate would be key. Listening to you talk, Adam, about how much you love the US, I think it would be wonderful if you, your partner, and your baby girl gave the US a try. Even if only for a year. We have coastal areas with large towns or little towns, whichever you want. Thinking about the temperatures you’re used to I would recommend the Seattle area or the coastal areas from Virginia to Maine. I don’t think you would regret it.

I have been to 37 states and lived in 4- Kentucky , Virginia , Alabama , and New York .Moving from rural Alabama to New York City was literally like moving to another country except we almost spoke the same language , LOL .In my career in the wine business I traveled around Europe a bit .You can't really know what a place is like until you live there for a while , so there are several places to which I have been which I thought I would like to give a try . These are all wine producing areas because those places are where I spent some time .In France , Alsace, the Loire Valley and the Languedoc . In Italy , the Veneto and Tuscany . In Spain , Cataluna and Castille y Leon in the area around Salamanca . In Germany, the Moselle Valley and the Rheingau .In Argentina , Mendoza . In Chile around Vina del Mar . In New Zealand , around Atago on the South Island . I have purposely left out big cities because I have lived around New York City for too long, though I like where I live now , on a small island off the south shore of Long Island . The USA is not what it was , I barely recognize the country in which I grew up . The psycho left is in charge and doing everything they can to destroy the USA

The weather affects us all regardless, so it's the one common denominator outside of of being human that we can all speak about. When I worked with the public, I did notice that British people would lay their accents on as thick as possible in an attempt to seem proper or whatever at times, especially when they were asking for an item or complaining about something. Foreigners will also use terms and phrases that are unique to their culture, even if they don't normally use the terms in their normal way of speaking. This is normal human behavior in an attempt to have individuality. We like to have individuality in the USA, but I feel outside of the USA this is a negative action. We Americans (generally) don;t want to blend so much that we disappear.

My husband moved from London to San Francisco, California in 1988 and has lived here ever since. We met in the mid-aughts and were married in the late-aughts. We live about 1.5 hours as the crow flies east of San Francisco now. He was very adventurous, and holds dual citizenship. My daughter - because we watched so much BBC TV on PBS when she was a girl could understand many types of British accents. When she worked at a local restaurant as a teen, she was often called up by her colleagues to help with British tourists accents. I grew up in cosmopolitan area but my daughters didn't out here in what my husband calls, "the back of beyond."

There are a number of places in GB or Europe I think I could live... Ireland Scotland for example... When you find it difficult to have something to talk about among new acquaintances..just ask them what they do..like..or think... I learned that as a young woman..most people at ease where they are LOVE to talk about themselves..lol... Yes we like accents from your part of the world.. primarily English 👍😉...people who speak correctly especially sound intelligent..and thus the charm... Aliens ?..only those that cross earthly borders..the ones that fall from the sky I'll have to see to believe... Cheers Adam..have a great rest of your weekend... 🌿🌿🌿

Canada would probably be the easiest. As it’s about as close to living in the U.S. as you can get. They are basically “us”… with civility & manners. And because I speak French; France might be fun. Australia might also be interesting. And of course… the U.K. I’ve been there several times and have great friends & family there. And like so many Americans, I absolutely admit to having an ALL THINGS “British” fixation! 🥸🤪🥸

Dude said he’ll never leave his home, because it’s home. Then followed up with he wouldn’t look back fondly if he did move abroad.

How did the difference happen? It is what they call the melting pot! British, France, Scotland, Irish, Africa, Norway, on and on in an era of new beginning. All for the first time working together to create a new Nation. In order for that to be done it was heartbreaking and painful and wonderful all at the same time.. every story from that era from native Indians to the western slinging gunman created a whole new world. Languages mingled and 2 and a half centuries later is American accents and slangs. It was the best of time and the worst of times.. but America was proof at one point there was a time we wanted to work together to create something special.. but as Benjamin Franklin said..” let’s see how long we can keep it.”

Greece. I love the history, culture and architecture.

One of the coolest things to me about the British accent is when you say "at all", you blend it together and say "atal", I've really think that sounds awesome! ❤

I DREAM of living in the UK

I am an American and we have lived in several other countries, including Eire. I actually spent quite a bit of time in the UK while we lived in Dublin (we ferried over quite a lot). The habits and manners are far more similar than different. Truly, it didn't take long for us to feel "at home" there. The differences do stick out, of course, but for you in particular--I hope you'll take this in the friendly spirit I intend it--you are so very open and "American" in how you present yourself. There is stodgy, posh, emotionally constipated British (we have those in the US, as well; they just have a different accent), and then there is the average person in the UK who is open and friendly and just wants to go through his day being a good person and get along with others. You seem like the latter. You'd have no trouble *at all* fitting in with Americans. There would be things that felt odd to you, but you'd get used to them, and people in the US would respond well to someone as friendly and transparently kind as you seem to be. The idea of moving country is frightening the first time you do it, but what I always find (we've moved country five times in my life, and several of those countries were not English-speaking: that's much harder to do) Sorry, I rambled, but what I always find when we get to our new home is that all that stress is really unnecessary. People are people everywhere you go, and it's not nearly as strange or upsetting as we worry that it will be.

Hey Adam!! Greetings from Colorado!! Thank you for all the time you spend making these videos! I love them all!! Have a great day or night!!!! ✌☮

I would move to Castle Combe. I fell in love with the village.

I love the painting of the Horse Richard the 5th

As a Soldier, I lived 4 yrs in Schweinfurt Ger. Adam. I was a tanker sitting in the Fulda Gap. But I did travel Europe a bit.

My retirement plan was to move to Ireland I have absolutely loved every trip there and have deep family roots going back to the 1400’s. I can’t wait for my trip next year, I’ve added that old pub to my list you showed in your blog.

The bird is a cardinal, which is a commonly found bird in the Chicago area. The Saint Louis baseball team is The Cardinals.

I can picture myself living in Scotland. Always wanted to travel there but i'd probably never go home. Same with Norway and Australia.

Ugh...that bird. That's what we wake up to. That birdcall is kind of pretty until it wakes you up every morning. And also, it usually means the weather is going to be sweltering that day. At this point, that sound makes me commit violence against nature. (I don't, of course. LOL)

I hear so many different accents around my work that it's not actually the first thing I clock any longer

I was fortunate to work as an oceanographer for a Dutch company and was able to live and work in different countries around the world. If money was no concern, then I would love to live in Spain (Barcelona), New Zealand (Wellington), Australia (Perth, Brisbane), Thailand, Canada. I love visiting and living in other countries, it led to a lot of personal growth. I've also lived in 10 different states across the U.S., and we are very fortunate that Americans have a whole continent that we can live in.

Yes...I could live in the UK, but I have lived for a year and would go back tomorrow to Salzburg, Austria, and never leave if it was easier than it is or I had more money. I visit every year and it's my happy place. But I think I could live in the UK, if I could install air conditioning. I watch tons of British panel shows and love them and some of those soccer channels like Away Days and Stunt Pegg make me want to go to all the soccer grounds from Sunday League all the way up the pyramid. Would be a fun. And I love cold and wet. Plus the short trips to all sorts of different places. The different states have some differences but having been to each state at least 3 separate times and constantly driving cross country from my home in San Diego to see baseball (greetings from Eau Claire, Wisconsin right for instance) it's not the same as saying a short flight or good drive from the UK and being in Italy or Portugal or Serbia or Denmark, etc.....

No matter where you are, the grass always looks greener on the other side. It's such a cliche but home is where the heart is. That's why you can go on vacation to the most amazing places, and yet after a while you begin looking forward to being back in your own bed and your own routine.

9:01 that bird is a cardinal

Adam, I'm pretty new to your channel. But I love your content. It's great getting to "know" someone from Northern Ireland. And it's great seeing your reactions to all things American. I'd love to learn more about Northern Irelands culture as well. Keep doing what you do and I'll continue to follow like your videos. 😁

We lived in Germany for 5 years as US military and we absolutely loved it. I would go back in a heart beat

Adam, I've never been blessed to visit any of the UK or any part of Ireland. What I have seen is really beautiful and surprising in that I thought it'd be much colder there like in our New England, or the Northern Planes and Minnesota. That was a shock. I knew it was rainy, like it is here in many different places which leads to all your greenery. I don't understand, not complaining or putting your opinions down at all, but why would you think it's shite to live where you live? It's your home, where those from whom you were bred have thrived for centuries. I love America, the pretty and the plain parts it takes it all to make a continent, but I don't understand why someone who lives in such a beautiful and historical land as the UK, just takes it's beauty for granted, and actually dislikes it so. Your a great young fella, very likable, what you've shown of your home is great too, why is it not special to you as it is home.....to you. Perhaps you should reconsider some of your homeward thoughts. It's easy to look elsewhere and imagine how it must be there, but if you move there, you'll find like everyplace you get used to it and suddenly it's got it's same ole', same ole' aspects as well. You should promote us visiting the UK as you often seem to promote your visiting the USA. We like you here, so like your home there, your accent alone is so unusual and fun where ours is so plain. Enjoy life, enjoy northern Ireland!

I moved from Florida to Cairo Egypt for 5 years, so I think that was harder than moving to Europe. 😊 I'll say, you would be surprised how culture differences that seem small are really hard to grasp. It can affect others reactions to you and vice versa. I find it fascinating!

Watching the Bob Ross video on twitch was so much fun! I’m soooo glad I ended up watching!

The red bird is called a cardinal very beautiful bird

Would I move to Europe? NO but only due to temperatures. Atlanta where currently it is 37 Celsius, is on latitude w/ Tunisia, Morocco, down to Western Sahara, Mali, Algeria... I can't IMAGINE what its like to live somewhere that gets Winter, nor do I want to.

1:30 born in the Philippines, moved to the US before I was a teen, lived in the UK (Bury St. Ed's) in my 30s. back in the US. It's been a journey

Actually, I think people talk about the weather because it affects a lot of what you do, such as what clothes you will where or what outdoor activities you are able to do. It is also a shared experience with everyone around you so it’s natural to say something about it. 😁

The bird that you asked about is a cardinal. They're quite common in the Midwest.

I enjoy your sense of humor brother and I would be proud to meet you and your family if you come back to America. I don't have much but what I have is yours. You and your family will always have a place to lay your heads.❤

6:17 That is a cardinal, it is a bird found widely across the US and is some states official State Bird. Yes, every state has their own official state bird, flower, and even tree, maybe a video idea?

I haven't been out of the US in a very long time. I did try going to college in a state very different to mine and it was really difficult for me. It was just too different. The environment, the weather, all of it. Maybe that's why people coming from abroad tend to move to states with similar climates to their homeland. As miserable as I am with the heat right now, this is my home.

Adam, home is where the heart is, to use a cliche. When I was eighteen, I moved from the Chicago area where I lived and was raised, to St. Thomas in the Virgin Islands, because I was in love. I was uncertain when I moved but absolutely loved living there, and felt very much at home. I have since lived in Iowa, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Florida and Indiana where I now live. I have always felt at home while I lived there. I would happily come to live in the U.K. My ancestors on my "birthmother's" side, as wells as my adoptive mothers family on her mother's side came from England and Ireland. If I could afford to, and was able to meet the stringent conditions of migrating to the U.K., I would happily come to live there. I would love to have dual citizenship. Where? London, Manhester, Jersey Isle, Oxford, Balmoral and the Scottish Highlands, and for heavens sake where you love and the surrounding areas in Northern Ireland look wonderful. If my mother were still alive, I would want to stay nearby to help, but that day has sadly gone. Always great to hear what Lawerence and you have to say. Peace

He thinks Richard III was a brutal dictator? Eff him, I'll never watch another video of his.

Everything spoken sounds so authoritative and cerebral when spoken through the British accent. 😅 Thank God we know better.. 😊

I am 76 and always lived in the US though I have been even to 26 States, a lot of Canada and Europe 5 times. I really enjoyed every place I’ve been to and like Canada a lot (some of my ancestors first went to Canada but then came to the US). I have a double major in History and Political Science and like you, I couldn’t live anywhere but America. 🇺🇸 I enjoy your website!!!!

I was raised in a different country, which I loved (still do) but after moving back to the States, I can't imagine living anywhere else.

I'm an American who has lived in the state of Pennsylvania all my life-- 64 years. If I were to move to another country, it would definitely be the UK.

Adam you would fit right in here in the states. Yes people will notice your accent right away but not everyone you meet will bring it up or make you say things for that matter. 🤦🏻‍♀ Americans tend to be curious about where people are from....i think it all stems from everyone who lives here is here because of an immigrant from some other country....but I do understand that there's no place like home 😉

I dream of living in the United Kingdom. I studied Ancient Rome and the Conquest of Britain and British History through the Middle Ages at university for my history degree, and I would love to work with the Time Team doing archeology in England. I would also love to live in Ireland. It is so green and lovely, I would certainly move there if I had the opportunity for sure. I can't imagine living anyplace else except where I live now in Minnesota. Love your channel Adam!!

That bird was a cardinal, a male cardinal ! They are beautiful ! The female is more of a tan color with a slight hint of red

Yes, without hesitation I would pick up and move to Wales if possible. I have visited, part of my family ancestrally is from there and I’m from PA, U. S. ….Swansea, Wales looks EXACTLY like Pennsylvania. It’s wild. I completely get why so many Welsh families settled here. ❤❤❤❤

If I wanted to move to Europe? Honestly. Germany, Denmark or Sweden. Probably the latter two, unless the north of Germany is nice and cold like where I live. Although my family apparently still owns so much farmland in Westphalia that it's still listed on the map. Also, that bird appears to be a Cardinal.

Adam, it's great to see your channel growing - you deserve it. Something I'd like to know is how you feel about Americans. Like, before you had your channel and now. What surprised you, what you like, etc. There's so much hate online for "those loud, ignorant Americans" that it would be nice to get an Irishman's take.

You asked if I could picture myself living in the UK. I would have to say yes, but quickly add that I would still visit the US often; perhaps as much as 3 months out of the year. Scotland would be my choice of places, but not in the center of Edinburgh. It would be off to the west in Linlithgow or even Stirling. I love Edinburgh, but there are simply too many tourists. When I go to Scotland I stay a few weeks at a time, once I stayed longer. I missed so many conveniences that I have in the US that it made it very hard for me to acclimate to the full experience. I didn't mind walking, but no AC, no screens on windows, smaller rooms, and (sorry) it seems rather dirty in most places. I have to admit living in the US has been wonderful and leaving it for any length of time makes me appreciate it more when I do return.

If I couldn't live here in the States I'd live in Scotland. And yes, I'd participate in the marches for independence.

Its a cardinal...named after the color of the robes Cardinals wear.

Where is Chicago? Northeastern Illinois on the southwest shore of Lake Michigan. About 40 miles south of me. As noted, the red bird was a Northern Cardinal,the state bird of Illinois.
