United Kingdom

Welcome to the United Kingdom!

The United Kingdom, a country steeped in history with many historic buildings, a varied landscape, and very contrasting cultures. In the south around London are predominantly the rather upper classes of UK. This can also be seen in the more cultivated language and the way people interact with each other. The further north, the wilder the landscape, the less industry and the more rustic the culture.

We enjoy all facets of this diverse country – come with us on the journey through the United Kingdom!
