THE COMPLETE GUIDE TO TRAVELLING AMERICA

 

 

PEOPLE

America is a diverse country, with many residents coming from other parts of the world, or descended from immigrants to the U.S. who came from many different places.
..... . Yet on another level, Americans can be very, very alike. They all seem to love their cars, Wal-Mart, McDonalds, TV, and other irritable elements of society. America has long been a country of “assimilation,” where the common goal – at least until the most recent generation of immigrants – was to become more like everyone else; to become “American,” whatever that really means.
..... . On a practical level, Americans are both similar and different. One of the great similarities is their friendliness. Americans are not afraid (or too indifferent) to smile and say “hello” to a stranger; to help someone with directions even if they can’t begin to understand their language.
..... . Serving staff in restaurants are generally friendly and helpful. (Possibly since much of their income – tips – comes from their attitudes.) Even wait staff in the big cities (known the world over for indifferent attitudes) are more prompt, patient, and helpful than their counterparts in most other cities of the world.
