Fella, I just want to see how a town in America operates. The less tourists=more authenticity. I can vouch that where I'm from has never seen a tourist, and it's the most pure English place in our entire country.

I bought a new snow blower before this season...fml

Narrow tire statement is 100 percent true

I’m out of town but my wife said she’s getting 8” tonight.

I’ll be sleeping out in it tonight in my canvas tent.

Ct isn’t the real America. We’re the smallest part of the country, literally aside from Rhode Island, if you want to see the real American history? Maybe you can try very hard to arrange some tours with a lot of travel time in between. If you want night life to enjoy a vacation go somewhere with nightlife and tourism.

Tbf it sounds like you want to be a tourist but told your agent you don’t want to be with tourists and tourism doesn’t work that way.

Salem is beautiful but doesn’t have much in the way for nightlife.

Not me.

Assuming that a pint in old blighty is around a fiver, what would it cost over there fella?

Queso, chips, Madelines and a Tony’s chocolate bar

Wine and pre-rolled joints here

Technically you cannot operate an e-bike in CT without a valid drivers license.

As an English person who lives in Connecticut, I can vouch for the fact that it is a beautiful state, with some really cool history/places/food. Also, If you've never been to the US before, it's really nice how chatty and informal people are (A lot of folks will tell you how reserved people are here, but they've obviously never spent any amount of time in London). As a down side however, not driving will become a serious pain unless you plan on staying in the same place for a while. With the strength of the dollar expect everything to be pretty pricy too. Still, at least you're not paying for electricity when you're here though.

You wanna come look at houses, Long Island sound and the woods? I like living here but if someone brought me here for a vacation I’d be pissed

Yeah, your intuition is correct. In my town which is NOT a well known big money zip code, there are no houses on the market. 2 years ago every single street had signs, now there are almost none. The one house a block over from me sold for 485k and was listed for like 24 hours before it sold, it was a new construction in 2016 for 275k... Nobody is selling because they are locked into good rates, selling now means you are looking to go bigger in many cases and the bigger means a new mortgage with a shitty interest rate on houses that are insanely priced. The whole market is priced out, i think hartford courant ran article that there are only like 330 houses in the whole state that are less than 300k. It seems like there are more than 330 people/families that are looking for their first house....but there is no new inventory getting built.

Go outside of October and there won't be a ton of tourists and still mad things to do

I’m eating popcorn and air frying shrimp I seasoned pretty heavily. Just the shrimp.

Not me, I don’t have a garage

A friend of mine has been excited to plan a " welcome spring!" party. This is the entire reason that it got cold and snowy.

I’m traveling Fri and Sat. That end of week storm is def a hit

Ah ok great. I’m in a healthcare field also. Respect to you both

I guess CT does look really good on paper, but would definitely be weird to make it the main reason you travel to the US.

I’ve never had rice-a-roni and now feel like I’ve been missing out. Is this like the ramen version of the rice world????
