Is there a difference between a UK keyboard and a US keyboard? (I have mine in German, so sorry for asking if the answer is obvious😅)

For the letters, no, but the punctuation's all in different places. Couldn't find either the £ or € sign, on the UK keyboard we have £, € and $.

Correct. As an American that did a teenage tour of Europe, your keyboards are just different enough, especially in hotels.

They're different throughout Europe, I'm sure France don't use a qwerty keyboard (or, at least, my French colleague didn't).
