American Culture

American culture’s influence around the world. Everybody has different perception about this country and its culture. Always it depends of the baggage that the person has before to know this Nation. I have personal experience with the American culture. Although Argentina has very similar culture than The United State; now I can understand more to American culture. I feel very comfortable in this country, its culture and I feel that U.S.A new my home.
Many people have another view about American culture that it changes when they live in this country or have more contact with Americans. I was surprised by some aspects from this culture. In Argentina people think that Americans are a little cold because they don’t have a lot of physical contact. But in my opinion Americans show their affection in a different way. Also, some people think that Americans are arrogant and they don’t know about about anything else but their own country. This is really not true (as most generalizations); I’m living here and I have discovered that people from this country travel a lot to different places and they are interested about different cultures. In additional, Americans have a strong sense of cummunity, and many people go to poor countries and help poor people. I think that many times people have preconceptions about American culture, but when they get to know it first hand they end up liking it.
