What are 5 top things that you would wish people to know of your culture/habits?

[good_deal_maker]

Do you mean somebody reading your post or a nation?

We can express for a nation the best:
- dish
- drink
- song
- national costume
- adverb (the most interesting thing)

For example, a german adverb:

Morgen, morgen, nur nicht heute
Sagen alle faulen leute.

Probably anybody knows the translation:

Tomorrow, tomorrow, not just today
Tell all lazy people.

Germans say: We are not lazy, we try to all work today. Only a lazy man moves a difficult work for tomorrow.

[Ariete]

This one is easy.

- Honesty
- Reliability
- Trustworthiness
- The Best Ally Ever
- Not as introvert as you might think

I wonder if people have realized about our great and fast customer service especially in restaurants.

1. Yes, we really are friendly - it's not an act. We're not being "fake."

2. Good, healthy, organic, natural foods are widely available. We're not a nation filled with "food deserts."

3. Not everyone is packing heat. Not even most people. We don't sit around and think about guns all day.

4. We're a big country. Really, really, really big. Keep that in mind when you read the news, because our violent crime rates per capita have actually been going down for decades.

5. We're more similar to you than we are different.

It's Art Noveau, it's the right mix between modernity and classical architectures. I also love Revival styles, Byzanthine and Baroque architecture.

I think they have, otherwise millions of Northern and Eastern European wouldn't keep flowing down to Spanish coasts instead of Croatian, Montenegrin, Italian or even French ones who equally striking in their beauty. You just manage to offer a brilliant service for relatively cheap prices

Culture is a derivative of economics. It can disappear over short period of time leaving hollow out caricature for tourism and niche entertainment in its wake.
