Car in La next to image of Alice Johnston kissing grocery bag
I visited the US for the first time in my 20s.
  • I grew up in the UK and had never been to the US before I visited LA when I was 26.
  • Even when I consumed American content, like "Sex and the City," I was shocked by the differences.
  • The weather is amazing nearly every day, and people are seemingly more positive. 
There is so much more space in LA.

The roads are bigger, and the houses are more spacious.
