America

Dear readers, let's move around the world, let's travel across the Atlantic ocean to America.

In North America, it is similar to Europe I would say, but South America is completely different. Or the culture here is. Of course, that nowadays, as there are big modern cities and so on, everything is kinda similar, which is sad. Even North America, the United States had a completely different culture and style of living in the past, but during globalization, as the distance between countries were getting smaller and smaller as the travelling got better and better, differences disappeared in some ways.

So, let's start in the very north, in Canada. It is a country of ice and cold weather I would say, but it is not like that at all. I mean in the south of this country, on the border with the United States, there is a normal mild climate. The most interesting thing about the weather here is, that as there are very high mountains, there could be snow all day and right under it, there could be very hot and people are swimming there in the sea. Also, there is a French region, in Quebec, so inhabitants here are speaking French and they have their French food and culture and so on.

In the United States, for me, one of the biggest differences is the people's approach to things. I mean to anything, to their food, clothes and so on. Of course, it is not true for everyone, but I feel like inhabitants here do not realize that much the value of everything and that they are wasting things and buying literally anything and I feel like their life like everything will be there forever. It is called capitalism. But I really admire their bravery and their ability to demonstrate against things and the power they have when they are unified.

And in South America, I would love just to mention the culture of tribes here. In this century, not many of them are still living the same life, they are mostly modernized. Also, the deforestation of the rainforests here is killing people and their lives!

So, in the next chapters, we will talk about some countries where, for example, Argentina.
