American woman living in London is left BAFFLED by local customs – as she voices bewilderment over how Brits pay for gas, go CAMPING, and order their coffee
- Andrea Celeste shared a series of clips on TikTok to expose the contrasts
- She tackled the dos and don’ts she encountered during her eight years in Britain

An American woman living in Britain has candidly revealed even more of the biggest differences she’s noticed since moving.
Andrea Celeste, originally from California, shared a series of clips on TikTok to “expose the things that are socially acceptable in England that would confuse Americans.”
Her first video covered a selection of the do’s and don’ts she encountered during her eight years in London.
But she’s now also covered the topics of gas, camping, and coffee – just to name a few.

The social media star, who has 185,000 followers on the video sharing platform, has now tackled the topics of petrol, camping and coffee – just to name a few
In the clip, which has been viewed over 607,800 times to date, Andrea sits in her kitchen and speaks directly into the camera.
She immediately launches into her insight which begins: ‘When you get gas for your car in England, you go in to pay after you fill up.
‘In the US you pay first, so you need to know approximately how much gas your car needs.
‘Iced tea is nothing in England. In the US, iced tea and sweet tea are very popular.
“I think you can get passion fruit iced tea and different types of iced tea at Starbucks in England, but generally it’s not that common.”
The social media star, who has 185,000 followers on the video-sharing platform, continues: “In England, a venti size at Starbucks is 20 ounces and in the US 24 ounces.
And the other two Starbucks sizes — grande and tall — are both two ounces smaller than the US.
“The same goes for many cafes and restaurants with drinks. They are usually slightly larger than in England.’

She goes on to say, ‘Camping in England usually doesn’t mean going to a forest or a campsite like in the US, but usually pitching a tent in a campsite in a field.
‘And instead of huge campers you see campers or caravans.
‘You may see campers, but they are not called campers. From what I understand, I think they’re called campers.”
Andrea closes her list by revealing, “Also, smores don’t exist in England, but I made an impromptu smore with two chocolate dips and a marshmallow.”
