These four illustrations are inspired by a poem by Alex Turner of The Arctic Monkeys (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MyAuzt2PmRI).  The poem is about travelling on the train in the UK, which i do quite a lot of.  I thought this a particularly suitable metaphor for my relationship with the UK- I know only London and Edinburgh- the rest I experience through a train window hurtling by.
