Changing placesJulie Willis is an artist from San Francisco who moved to London in 1988. We asked her tocompare life in San Francisco and London. Here's what she told us.The citiesSan Francisco is a lovely city in a beautiful bay. It's got lots of great buildings and places. It'ssmaller and much more modern than London, but it's less interesting. London has a lot moretheatres and museums. The Americans are usually more interested in money than culture! Thearchitecture in London is incredible and very stimulating, and the parks and markets arewonderful. London isn't as dangerous as San Francisco, and it's less violent. I feel much saferliving here - nobody carries a gun, not even the police!The cost of livingPeople have a higher standard of living in the States because generally, it's much less expensivethan Finland. For example, petrol is less than hall the price and things like food, clothes, andcameras are much cheaper. It's a shopper's paradise and I always spend a fortune when I go back!It's a bit more expensive to rent a flat in London and my bills are much bigger than they were inSan Francisco. So, although my salary in London is about the same as it was in the States, I haveto work harder to get the same quality of life as I had before.Public transportIn San Francisco you can walk everywhere because it's a small city. There's less traffic than inLondon, and public transport is great. There are cable-cars to go up all the hills and electricbuses which make the city much cleaner. Public transport in London is terrible and reallyexpensive. It takes me an hour to get to work and the journey is usually stressful. London'sdirtier too and much more polluted. The traffic is awful, because there are too many cars and thestreets are narrow. But English drivers aren't as aggressive as American drivers!The foodFood in the States is generally much better. It's fresher, cheaper, and there's much more choice.Restaurants aren't as expensive as in London and the service is much better. In some restaurantsthey put a clock on the table when you arrive, and if they haven't served your meal in fiveminutes, they'll give you the food free! I'm usually disappointed when I eat out in London,although the Indian restaurants are excellent.
