  • I loved visiting the UK! From the food, people, and views it was truly a memorable experience. One thing I will say as an American who visited the UK is it was cool to be the one with the accent :)
    Thanks for your patience as I edit these videos. I like to put my creativity and personality into each video! I genuinely appreciate everyone who interacts with my videos and leaves comments, it is thrilling to connect with people from outside of the US.
    In the next video I will be traveling to Scotland where I will explore Edinburgh!

    Great video! I'm a proud Londoner and we always call the Elizabeth tower Big Ben. Everyone does so no need to correct yourself. You love Big Ben and that makes you great! Come back and see us soon 😁

    Most Brits will know it’s called Elizabeth Tower, but i’m pretty sure most of us, when talking about it, call it Big Ben too.

    While its generally referred to as Big Ben, the tower itself has never been called that. Before it was the Elizabeth tower it was originally known simply as The Clock Tower, and then St Stephen's Tower.
    Big Ben is really a nickname for the bell. Its full title is The Great Bell of the Clock of Westminster.

    Big Ben is the large bell in the tower that strikes the hour chimes.

    We all call it Big Ben in the UK, even though we know its called Elisabeth Tower, I've never heard anyone say "can you show me the way to Elisabeth Tower" ...you'd probably get half the people you ask say "where" 😂

    Although it's officially the bell itself that is called Big Ben, everyone here in London calls the clock tower Big Ben too. A lot of people wouldn't even know what you were talking about if you said The Elizabeth Tower.
