The Greater London area has this strange idea sometimes that in some terms it is India, I say this not only because of the various types of architecture in accordance to the palace of Brighton, but because for some reason upon traveling to Camden Town, and visitng the market i felt as though i had walked into an old fashioned near east bazaar. It was trully unbelievable, there were hundreds upon hundereds of merchants and stores in this outdoor market that probab...

As the title suggests Brighton is to the UK what Frisco is the US. The beauty, the difference, the flamboyancy (and yes I mean "flamboyancy"), and even the coastal city aspect exist in poth places equally. To strike straight to the point of this, Brighton has the highest known Gay population in the UK, and was the "butt" of many of our jokes (yes that was spelt incorrectly on purpose).

First thing I'll do is start off telling a little bit about where I'm staying while I'm studying for the semester at Kingston University. The town, while the locals consider it small (though I guess it is small for the greater london area), is actually quite large in comparison to American suburbs. In fact it dwarfs Romeo possibly 10 fold, and has a more active night life than Grand Rapids. That may be to the ridiculously high student population, where as Grand V...
