Emma Watson says America is like her second home

Emma Watson says America has become her “second home”. The actress — who is studying a Liberal Arts Degree at Brown University — told The Orange County Register, a local Southern California newspaper, that she loves living in the US.

“It’s been great; it’s been an adventure,” she said.

“In fact on the second day of the junket [promotional interviews] this week, I met with all the American journalists and I felt as if I were home.

“It was great to hear American accents again. America really is my second home…

“Americans are friendly and sweet and open and honest and gorgeous.”

Meanwhile, Emma — who has starred as teenage wizard Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter movie franchise for more than ten years — has admitted while she is sad the movies are coming to an end, she also feels a huge sense of relief and can’t wait to see what the future holds.

“People keep saying to me, ‘So this is the end, how do you feel about it being the end?’” she said.

“And I’m like, ‘It really doesn’t feel that to me.’ It feels like the beginning. It’s actually really an exciting time for me rather than this kind of the end. I can’t stand everyone calling it the end. I’m 20 years old. Seriously, guys.

“It feels like I’ve been handed my life back, like I’ve been let off a leash.”
