I have to copy brazenly from Yael and list the most common search terms people used to find this blog, because, well they’re remarkably silly.
- 3 of the top 5 involve Leehom Wang and Cockney Girl the song. Appropriate for an expat, eh?
- A whopping 74 people found me when querying the “English reserve” but I doubt they meant to find my post with that title but ending with a question mark…
- “Good things about England” with 55 searches beats “Bad things about England” with 33
- 38 people are apparently seeking my economics expertise (not!) with “pounds vs dollars” plus another 23 with the same search but “versus” spelled out; add 20 more for “expat cost of living”
- A large number of the intermediate results (numerically speaking) involve the word “cleavage” and I don’t think they’re looking for my fracture mechanics knowledge
- My superstar friend is “Kara Purrier” (seriously, hon, is someone stalking you?)
- I doubt many of the people looking for an “Italian word of the day” realize I was talking about focaccia restaurants and not some useful word. No language lessons here, at least not Italian ones!
- Many must be appreciating my fine advice on sleeping on airplanes. Which is good since I’m heading out across the pond again soon and will need to revisit that advice.
Not From Around Here 
Never underestimate the power of Leehom to draw in Googlers!
