3 months and im sick of the uk already
Posted by borlova on February 17, 2008
well it says it all, cant wait to be back in Romania, in fact anywhere other than the UK if it wasnt for my kids i wouldnt have been back here at all.
The reasons why i left in the first place have all been reconfirmed, its official this place is a dump, full of massive taxes on everything that moves,its not a place to live and work its only a place to work, one day i will leave for good and only come back on holiday to see family etc. I don’t feel at home here, i feel like a foreigner? maybe because my mind has been opened to other ways of life and other cultures. Too many things now annoy me about being here,from working,taxes,accommodation prices,transport costs,bureaucracy,attitudes of people,the restrictions and laws of this country particularly the anti social laws like the smoking ban in public places. this place has gone nuts..it is no longer the england i was brought up in. one time we had a nice country and things were prosperous most people seemed happy,now i dont find the same feeling. every one is bogged down with the stress of life and living. its all about possessions, lifestyle and money. aaahhhh enough ranting, i am a whining brit a habit hard to break.

pleased to see you’re writting again. it’s been a while and i thought your return to england wiped out the borlova memories you nicely shared with us in 2007. To be honest I wasn’t expecting your disapointment with England to reach this extent. But I see your point. England isnt what it was in 94 when I arrived, let alone the time you refere to.
As I will return home in a few months time, a thought is taking shape…I wonder how I will see england upon my return to romania. I hope to feel just as you do.
