Moving from the UK to America can be a culture shock – and one British TikToker in the U.S is brilliantly capturing that experience.

Melissa Herrera is originally from King’s Lynn, Norfolk, but moved to the Fort Mill area of South Carolina in August 2021. She has made several videos about the things she finds ‘strange’ about life as a Brit in America and they’ve struck a chord with TikTok users – she’s garnered more than 74,000 followers on the video platform.

The video titles include ‘Things in American house that British people would find strange’, ‘Stuff in an American neighbourhood that makes no sense to a British person’ and ‘Things that scream I’m in America’.

In her videos, the 31-year-old documents uniquely American customs such as ‘weird’ drive-through ATMs, ‘odd’ outdoor TVs on porches and ‘glittery’ fake boulders that are designed to obscure neighbourhood power boxes.

Il l’a déjà fait deux fois, mais en veut encore plus. Jordan Mionzé est un traileur qui ne s’arrête jamais. Ce jeudi (1er mai), il s’est élancé de la Savane, à Fort-de-France, avec comme objectif de courir 280 km à travers l’île, avec 8 000 m de dénivelé positif. Accompagnés par celles et ceux qui le souhaitent pendant quelques kilomètres, le sportif a prévu son retour au même endroit, ce samedi soir (3 juin). Revivez en images le départ de ce défi fou.
