The longest time I’ve spent away from home was when I was 20 years old and took the spring semester off from college to live in Brighton, England. I was there for 7 months and it a life changing experience for me. I’m a much better person for it and made the most amazing friends that I’m still close with today.
I’ve been enjoying reading all your “snack” reviews! My favorites in Brighton were Skips (like a lite, airy potato chip) and Worcestershire Sauce Potato Chips!
