I'm going to add my voice to choir by saying it's not location, it's know-how and who you know. You hear Americans talking about seedy weed because they don't show discretion. Most people here tend to just pounce on whatever they see instead of finding something of quality. If you have shitty weed the only person you have to blame is yourself.

Gizmo I would like to impart some timeless words from Stewie Griffin- "You don't so much as speak the language as butcher it."
