The Best Place in England

And the award goes to...(drumroll)...Brighton! To be honest, i haven't seen much of England at all but i really don't think it can get any better than Brighton. It's like a mini-san fransisco but filled with students. Similar architecture, sunny weather (hence the name), beach, hippies, organic food, alternative bars, you name it! I can't believe i've never heard of this place until very recently.

Brighton also has an amazing palace built by King Henry (the 4th i think) called the Royal Pavilion...you've never seen anything like this in your entire life - a palace built by a English Playboy Prince in a Indian/Chinese style to throw huge parties for his friends.

During my last night in Brighton, i attended a Divorce party. Yes, two people (who married 5 years ago, separated a few years later and now finally were officially divorced) were celebrating and decided to have a big party. To summarize: "Just Divorced" balloons, a Wedding-style cake but cut in half (with the groom on one side and the bride on the other), couchsurfers from all all over the world, lots of alcohol, 'Just divorced' speeches and skinny dipping at 2am.

On the way to london from Brighton i stopped at Stonehenge to take a few photos. I decided it was not worth the £6.50 for the entrance so i took photos from outside the perimeter fence (i love my new zoom lense). Was i impressed...not really...i've been spoiled by egypt :)


India? Guess again...


San Fran? Guess again...


It's Brighton!
