I was wondering are there any other folks who are not American on these boards. I was just thinking about it, as most folks are either married to an American or a Brit. I myself consider myself British (have the passport and all my family here!) but in fact I am originally from S.Africa. I love the USA and hope one day to live there as my in-laws have made their home there. I enjoy reading these boards as I find people from the US to be friendly and very open, I that South Africans, Ozzies are similar. I find sometimes here in the UK people tend to be so wary of you if one strikes up a conversation with a stranger - but that is the only way one can make friends and get to know people. Being an expat is hard enough…
