What a journey, Yan!
I enjoy watching those sorts of tours on Youtube now Yan!
The area in the top N-E of the USA, called; "New England"...>>> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_England
Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island!
Many Immigrants from Great Britain, Ireland, and Northern Europe!
Although most of my flight Sim activity has been spent in the S-W USA, California, etc, I have recently found a soft spot for the USA North Atlantic Coast region, due to my daily encounters with my Youtube Motorcycle Chums from that area!
So much of it is reminiscent of my local scenery area in; "Old" England; trees and vegetation, etc, (apart from our all-encapsulating roadside hedgerows!)
Even the place names and accents are similar and familiar!
...even the weather is the same, especially at this time of the year!
The weather and temperature are all over the place, at the moment, changing dramatically each day!
One day rain, the next day snow, with temperatures varying wildly!
Whatever is happening in New England is probably happening here as well, and vice-versa!...>>> https://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/0/hr4
Paul....cool and wet, in old England!... ...!
