But she's also said a lot of fabulous things about England... I think what she said was taken out of context (that article was about how to adjust to a new city, or something... i had the issue...it was a special World issue where they were taking about the differences in other countries... Its not like she was just ranting on London for the hell of it).
I read the article before seeing this thread, and I really believe that her remarks about London have totally been taken out of context. I didn't think her comments were mean-spirited, offensive, or inconsiderate. Rather than criticize England, she pokes fun at various cultural differences that she's experienced, and also talks about herself as a foreigner, feeling lonely and perplexed.
