This would be my happy place always. I live in America, i have mostly English/ Welsh Ancestry on both sides, I know still makes me American, but I tend to lean more towards the European way of life and I study the Victorian time period, my home decorations are Victorian inspired or Victorian antiques, I also study Edwardian, the American time period during this, Civil War, Guilded Age, pretty much the 1300's to the 1930's, but the Victorian Era is my favorite. We have a few Villages like this, they are Colonial, up to Victorian, though they tend to lean more Colonial, but I love that time period as well, so I don't mind.
