London has one of if not the greatest variety of food you will find in any city on Earth. The weather is nowhere near as bad as it's made out to be.
This is true. My visits there I've been amazed by the variety and quality of food, not surprising considering how multicultural it is there. Seems a lot of ignorant people are still blinded by silly old stereotypes.
The culture doesn't interest me that much tbh, nor the food or the weather. If I win a free all-paid trip I would love to go, but until then I'd prefer to spend money on travel to Asia
I that because you view the culture as too similar to the US? The UK has some amazingly beautiful areas of countryside & many historical sites & buildings, even as a Brit I used to love visiting different areas of the country. Parts of London & places like Stratford-Upon-Avon are breathtaking. Not sure what you mean about the food, as it isn't just Fish & Chips & US chain burger restaurants. As for the weather, well you generally get comfortable temperatures year round & in summer you can get plenty of warm & sunny weather, it's pot luck what you will get, but visiting the SE during the summer months you will generally have decent weather...

I would like to see the gritty part of London actually maybe it's weird, but things like street art, back alleys, urban grit, it interests me a lot
Well maybe I can go one day, after all it is known as one of the Alpha cities in the world of course my priority now would be Asia and finishing off South America, I still have to see Colombia+Ecuador+Brazil, and also the selva part of Peru
In the first [Californian] or the second [upstate New York] link?
Also, do the trees in the first link look like they could pass for Scandinavia ? I've thought Californian forests often look very northern given their latitude.
The Californian one.
The trees look very similar, but some are a bit taller due to the warmer climate.
