West England - stunning place, you'll probably have seen it as a location in various films etc. Definitely have a couple of nights there.

And pp mentioned Windsor and Scotland, add those to the list!

Still deciding.

If it's the latter, you won't be far from us!

How about au pairing whilst there? Then you'd get to stay with a British family and at least earn a bit of pocket money, and you can still study.

Like a foreign exchange student? I am not sure how that whole thing works though. We have 5 Europeans foreign exchange in our school. 2 is from Italy, 1 is from Germany, and 2 is from France.

I definitely wanted to do that.
