Philadelphia has been surprising me in a positively way. I have to say that come to the USA had never been a wish in my life. Of course I should come here someday only to visit, but if I had to pay for a interchange program, probably it would not be my first choice.
Firstly because it is an expensive place to study, and second perhaps because as I have studied at a British language course it would be more comfortable to me to be in England or in another Britain country.
However, my experience in Philadelphia has made me change my concepts about the USA. People are kind, city is organized and most of Americans that I knew were absolutely lovely with me and patients with my horrible English. I am in serious relationship with USA and mainly with Philadelphia
Philadelphia does have a way of surprising people. It has the richest history of any city in the US, and it has surprisingly deep artistic and cultural communities. It helps that we are two hours away from New York, an hour and a half away from the beach, and less than three hours away from Washington DC.
