After 3 years living in Los Angeles, I can assure you that everything you hear about the city is absolutely true. Here are the Top 5 Things I really WON'T miss about Los Angeles during my year in Scotland:

1. Traffic & Sprawl (they go hand-in-hand)
2. American Apparel Ads
3. The city's obsession with fame, fortune & celebs in rehab.
4. Aggressively flirtatious homeless men Downtown
5. Feeling like I need to dress up to go to my neighborhood Trader Joe's (in Silverlake) because everyone in this town is so darn stylish.
