From finding out the truth behind Christmas pudding to arguing over the proper use of dish soap, American expat life in the UK can be a particularly bumpy rollercoaster of experiences. After navigating the perilous expat roads for just over seven years (not to mention the actual perilous roads just wide enough for a sheep to fit through), Kalyn Franke takes readers through some of the most important questions, fears, concerns and triumphs that accompany American life in the UK.Whether you're already living in the land of towel rails and hidden meanings or you're still contemplating making the move across the pond, Girl Gone London uses true stories and a healthy dose of humo(u)r to show you that you're not alone, and, more importantly, that a successful life abroad lies just on the other side of the ability to laugh at yourself (but not too loudly - this is Britain, after all!).
