As American travelers, we were surprised by many aspects of the UK during our first visit. In this video, we discuss 10 things that took us by surprise, like not needing a car, narrow roads, public footpaths, and the efficiency of contactless payments and queuing. But the biggest shock? It's something that I can't believe we are so bad at in the US. While many of the surprises were positive, even the ones that we initially felt negative, we've come to appreciate over time.

Have you noticed these contrasts between the US and the UK? Or have you experienced your own surprises when traveling? And what are some good footpaths we should check out on a future trip to the UK? Let us know in the comments!
