Bristol (a green city, vegan vibes and Clifton Bridge)
Bristol is one of England’s greenest city, situated in southwest England and not too far from Wales. It has hip districts, and a strong vegan movement.
The main landmark is Clifton Bridge, which alas has been a suicide spot for many years. However one woman back in the day jumped off due to a failed love affair. Her petticoat acted like a parachute, she survived and went on to marry someone else and lived to her 80s.
