Haha...accents can attract the men... and yes, it's a lineage thing
too...my family is Scottish, Irish and German...that is why I am hoping
to make a trip there in the future...so see where my family originated...
You'll love it here, I don't know anyone that doesn't like Scotland
Berenice, I felt the same way in reverse my two years in England. I fell in love with the people more than anything. One of the biggest GENERAL differences (and being general can play into stereotypes but go with me on this....) was that Americans are more open and warm outwardly, but you only go so deep with most. The British seem more reserved up front, but will open their lives deeper once you get to know one another.
Yes, that's been my observation also, and it's why I've heard Brits say Americans "run hot and cold."
I once managed a hotel and one beautiful morning, I was helping the receptionist check out our guests, on checking out an American couple.......I asked if they had 'enjoyed their trip accross the pond' to which they replied "Oh yes, we love comming accross to England, its basicly one of our states...........I will not post my reply on here!!!!!!
