An American living in the UK has fallen in love with a few British quirks she says she can’t live without! As shared in her TikTok videos, @Yorkshireyank highlights why she might never want to leave the UK.
First up, she loves doing her laundry right in the kitchen, thanks to the counter space—and wonders why this isn’t more common back in the US. She also raves about British electrical sockets saying, “You can actually turn them off! Why don’t we do this in the States? It’s just common sense to prevent electricity from leaking.”
Her adoration doesn’t stop there. The shower experience in the UK is superior, thanks to power showers that always deliver piping hot water. She can’t imagine life without the NHS, a service she calls a “magnificent beast” that’s essential and very much appreciated.
But of course, you can’t talk British traditions without mentioning tea! In a separate video, she gushes about the charm of British tea culture. Did you know a cuppa can cure absolutely everything? Whether it’s celebrating a new baby or dealing with a tough time, there’s always time for a tea break. The idea of a comforting tea trolley rolling around in NHS wards brings a smile to her face.
Fans loved her reflections. One viewer said, “Tea does make everything feel better.” Another chimed in, “You’ve made me want a cuppa now!” And of course, the classic comment: “Hug in a mug!” It’s clear that these British habits have truly won her over. What’s your favourite quirky British tradition? ☕
