If the spiders and creepy crawlies aren't too big sign me up. London is wall to wall grey and a touch bleak.
Where I'm from (Northern Ireland) is historically forest, but exploitation over the last 1000 years has turned it bare and mostly into agricultural land.
- CalRobert 9y agoIt's weird - Ireland is gorgeous, but at the same time when I see the rolling fields and grasslandsit makes me sad to think of the forest that used to be. There's a tiny patch of jaw-droppingly beautiful forest on the Beara Peninsula. The last time I was there I saw sheep had gotten loose and were grazing inside it. If that continues it will be the death of it :-(.
- dx034 9y agoThat depends where in London you live. Hampstead Heath and Richmonds have very green areas (and are comparably easy to commute from). Western parts of the city also feel very green. Just the East is indeed very grey but that's because it was an industrial area until very recently.
