My kinda town

I love Edinburgh:

• the flag on St. John's Church on Princess Street
• Edinburgh Castle
• Late night shopping (with 24 hrs supermarket)
• the view from my office
• saying “thanks” to the bus-driver
• lots of international people (probably because of being foreigner myself)
• Dean Village
• Meeting lots of new people
• The Highlands at the backdoor
• The river/sea
• Free digital television
• Speaking English (or something that looks like it)
• Getting visitors from Belgium
• The weather (not being funny!)
• Being a foreigner

What I would change in Edinburgh:

• Move my entire family/friends to here
• The barley/hops smell from the brewery
• The banking system
• The high accommodation prices
• The we-don’t-give-change-on-Lothianbuses policy
• Leith scum trashing my car... 4 times
• Girls wearing summer tops on freezing cold winter nights on the street
• Over-expensive trains
• Pub- and restaurant chains
• The unavoidable “where are you from – how long have you been here” conversation
