Has it only been a year? Of course, the thing that's made it worth while is the people we've met here. Everyone has patiently put up with a couple of English subjects in denial that the USA no longer belongs to them.
I have to thank fellow-blogger Dana for being crazy/bored/desperate enough to join me on many of these jaunts, and infinite, unending, eternal thank yous to Hannah - without her brains and determination to get into business school we'd never be here in the first place, I wouldn't do any of this stuff, and you couldn't read about it in 340 blog posts (so far). Please forward all comments/complaints to her :)
That was then...
