Hello and Welcome! :)

Hiya! And may I just say that I am happy you are here because I know that means we were brought together by a common interest: Great Britain and the United Kingdom. You're an Anglophile, proud and true (or perhaps still in the closet!). So let's start with some introductions. I am an Anglophile too, and have been for many years. It started off with an interest in history and an obsessive attraction for the English accent, though it wasn't until college that I was referred to as an Anglophile and I wore that label with pride from then on out. With some strange bit of luck I ended up landing a wonderful man in my life who happens to be born and raised English so I am quite literally now an Anglophile. I have also traveled to the wonderful land that it is and experienced it first hand.

Now, enough about myself. Here is what you can expect from this blog, which is for you and others like you who desire to learn more about our fellow friends across the pond. You can expect this blog to be very specific rather than generalized, presented as individual experiences or pieces of culture and news. Each post will be about something in particular. For example, one post may profile a person who you should know about while another may profile a pub that you should know about. Everything is fair game, from food to places to see, things to do, all things social and cultural, as well as history that needs to be mentioned. Anything and everything, in other words! In the mean time, feel free to check out the links I have provided and I hope you enjoy this journey with me exploring the world of the British.

Cheers!
