About the Englishman

The O.C. Englishman is Peter Hobley. He has been married to a US citizen, Jennifer, since 2007.

After marrying, they lived near Durham in the northeast of England. For a number of reasons they decided in September 2008 to move to the US. This, of course, was to take some time. Jennifer eventually arrived in June 2009, with the now O.C Englishman arriving in July 2009.

Peter decided to create a blog to record the process of moving to “the O.C.” and his new life there.

How will this very English man cope in the strange new world?
