Quality tv. Spanish tv is terrible and I miss the UK dramas and documentaries.
Not much else, I¨m getting used to the length of time it takes for anything to get done here. Government departments and banks don´t seem to talk to each other.
From Puerto Rico I miss the culture, the friendship, and the food; and from the U.S. I miss the big malls, movies, sense humor, evrything open later in the states, and Walmart.

When I have been out of my country I would miss family and friends the most, sometimes some food but I have never though of missing a store.

Please tell what would you miss from Wal Mart?
Well, Wal mart is open 24 hours a day, and out here after six you are lucky if you can find something open and on Sunday almost everything is close. I also miss the big malls and Shopping centers...
Also, if you go on a road trip out here you better find lodging before six or you will be sleeping in your car.

It is the 24/7 service, I get it. Here we do have some stores (something like 7/11 in USA, kind of) that offer a 24/7 service were people can find almost everything.

I am so with you on missing the shopping! I do miss Walmart too, but not most of the people shopping there.
I remember when the supermarkets here started staying open until 8... it was 6 when I first moved here.
Are there foods you miss that you can't get now? I know I have a list.
Actually there are several things I miss from the USA. I have been gone from there for about 10 years and I miss being able to go anywhere, anytime of day or night, never needing to consider immigration rules, then I miss the ease of buying a car or getting a license to drive it. Last time I moved to a different state It took all of 30 minutes to switch licenses. Perhaps, most of all I miss the familiarity of having already been in most parts of the USA. It's great to travel to other lands but going back home is nice too.
