TEN REASONS WHY I LIKE COMING BACK TO AMERICA

  1. FRIENDLY PEOPLE – FRIENDLY PEOPLE – Americans are pretty unbelievable: always willing to help, always smiling and genuinely positive thinkers. No matter what idea I come up with, their reaction is always: “That’s awesome!”
  2. ENGLISH – I love speaking English, so going to America is logically the best way for me to practise it. Moreover, it’s fun to compare the different accents and expressions while travelling across various regions.
  3. KIND ATTITUDE – can ask the stupidest question in the world, yet because Americans patiently answer all my questions, I never feel like an idiot — which happens quite often in the Czech Republic.
  4. WAITERS IN THE RESTAURANTS – The quality of service might be comparable, but the waiters’ behaviour is definitely not the same as what I am used to. Not only do they smile at me, but they also introduce themselves, which makes the whole experience more personal.
  5. SHOP ASSISTANTS WHO SAY HI – Similar to the previous point. I like that no matter what shop I walk into, the shop assistants immediately say hi, smile and ask how I am. You wouldn’t believe how much this can improve your day.
  6. PEANUT BUTTER & TRAIL MIX – I honestly don’t know how I manage to survive without these two things when I am back home.
  7. CHEAP CLOTHES – OK, I admit it: I love our spoiled consumer society, and shopping is one of my favourite activities when travelling. It is always inspiring to discover brands in the US that are unknown to me.
  8. DIVERSITY – I love the variety of the regions. There are lowlands, mountains, waterfalls, seas and parks in the US — there is really everything. Moreover, the rich diversity of nationalities and mix of cultures make the country original as well.
  9. WEARING PYJAMAS IN PUBLIC – This is a truly unique thing. I can put anything on, go out and be sure no one will stare at me. People simply do not care at all about your style.
  10.  PUTING THINGS IN A SHOPPING BAG – When buying food in a supermarket, I do not have to worry about putting it into bags. There is usually one person at every checkout who is in charge of it. So all I have to do is pay.
