An American woman\u00a0living in Britain has candidly revealed yet more of the biggest differences she has noticed since relocating.<\/p>\n
Andrea Celeste, originally from California, has shared a series of clips on TikTok\u00a0to expose ‘the things that are socially acceptable in England which would confuse Americans.’<\/p>\n
Her first video tackled a selection of the dos and don’ts she has encountered during her eight years in London.<\/p>\n
But she has now also addressed the topics of petrol, camping and coffee – to name just a few.<\/p>\n

Andrea Celeste, originally from California , has shared a series of clips on TikTok to expose ‘the things that are socially acceptable in England which would confuse Americans’<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
The social media star, who boasts 185,000 followers on the video-sharing platform, has now tackled the topics of petrol, camping and coffee – to name just a few<\/p>\n
In the clip, which has so far been viewed more than 607,800 times, Andrea sits in her kitchen and\u00a0speaks directly to camera.<\/p>\n
She launches straight into her insight which begins: ‘When you get petrol for your car in England, you go inside to pay after you’ve filled your tank.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘In the US you pay first, so you kind of need to know how much gas your car will need.<\/p>\n
‘Iced tea is not a thing in England. In the US, iced tea and sweet tea are very popular.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘I think you can get passion-fruit iced tea and different iced teas from Starbucks in England but it’s not very common in general.’<\/p>\n
The social media star, who boasts 185,000 followers on the video-sharing platform, continues: ‘In England, a venti size at Starbucks is 20 ounces and in the US, it is 24 ounces.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘And the other two Starbucks sizes – grande and tall – are both two ounces smaller than the US.<\/p>\n
‘The same goes for a lot of cafes and restaurants with drinks. They tend to be a little bit bigger than in England.’<\/p>\n

Next, she states: ‘Going camping in England isn’t usually going to a forest or a camp ground like in the US, it is usually pitching a tent in a camp site on a field.<\/p>\n
‘And instead of huge RVs, you’ll see campervans or caravans.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘You might see RVs but they’re not called RVs – I think they’re called motorhomes, from what I understand.’<\/p>\n
Andrea concludes her list by revealing: ‘Also, smores don’t exist in England but I made a makeshift smore with two chocolate digestives and a marshmallow.’<\/p>\n
