she told over 750,000 viewers on TikTok.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I&#8217;m somebody who loves being near the beach, I love swimming in the ocean, I love tanning, being in the sun &#8211; there&#8217;s none of that in the UK.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>While stressing to add that she understood how people can enjoy life on the British Isles, another issue Ms Woodham found with the lifestyle was &#8216;living for the weekend&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I don&#8217;t want to live for the weekend anymore,&#8217;
