Good Things About Moving to Glasgow

My husband and I are both a bit stressed and nervous about moving to Glasgow. It's hard not to focus on the negative aspects, like the fact that we'll be feel much poorer because housing is so much more expensive. So I decided to try to make a list of the positive things!

♥ The West End Festival looks like it might be good.

♥ All my American friends will think it's cooler than England (even though it's virtually the same).

♥ Get to learn new slang.

♥ A major international airport right in my city.

♥ They have some Mexican restaurants and they might be good.

♥ It has great shopping.

♥ There will be loads of things nearby to do on weekends.

♥ Will be living next to a university built in 1451. That was before Columbus even discovered America.

♥ A much more diverse population in comparison to Carlisle which is 99.1% caucasian.

♥ No prescription fees. Yeah, that's a small thing, but it's still something.

♥ Lochs are obviously cooler than lakes.

♥ Bag pipes and kilts.

♥ It's the murder capitol of Western Europe. Wait... what?
