With more and more people studying abroad every year, there are a couple of things that almost every person experiences while in another country. Here are 15 things that are commonly experienced while studying abroad in England.

1. Everyone drinks...all of the time.

You will have more hangovers than homework.

2. Clubbing is a huge thing that you will experience at least once.

If you don't like it, don't worry. Trust me, being surrounded by sweaty drunk people who all think they can dance isn't always fun.

3. English people are not afraid to use the c-word.

Imagine my surprise when, the first time I met someone, they said the dreaded c-word. This word does not hold the stigma that it does in the States.

4. You will walk constantly.

Seriously, if it's within three miles, be prepared to walk. Driving isn't a huge thing, especially if you're able to walk.

5. Primark will become your favorite clothes place.

You want a shirt with emojis all over it? They have it. Want a Pooh Bar onesie? It's in stock at your local Primark!

6. Even though you speak the same language, there is a ton of slang that you will not understand at first.

Slang terms include Uni, chunder, banter, grim and cheeky.

7. Speaking of cheeky, you will experience a cheeky Nandos and will become addicted to the peri peri chicken.

If you don't live in Washington D.C., Maryland, Virginia or Illinois, you're out of luck...and peri peri chicken.

8. At first you will be impressed by the castles. Then you will realize that there are too many castles to count within 5 miles of each other.

Seriously, the number of castles I saw when I was there was ridiculous. It's like being in "Game of Thrones" at all times.

9. If you're in London, you will experience the tube messing with your plans at least once.

>One of the lines will close down due to technical difficulties, or it will be inconveniently delayed.

10. They take their tea very, very seriously.

Don't even think about putting the sugar in after you put the tea in. You will regret it.

11. Everyone dresses extremely well always.

I wore yoga pants once while I was there, compared to the five times a week I average in the U.S.

12. People will associate you with classic American stereotypes.

Stereotypes include cheerleaders and football players, high school parties, and obesity.

13. High Street is the place to shop and gather with friends.

Every town has a High Street, and it contains all of the most important shops and restaurants.

14. Having class only once a week is normal there. You will grow accustomed to the free time and spend it traveling and drinking.

Beware of the dreaded 2,000-plus word essays that are due at the end of the semester.

15. You will make lifelong friendships with people from a different country, or even people from different states.

The people you meet there will soon become your favorite people in the world, and leaving is the hardest thing you will ever have to do.
