Ironically, though, I find people in the US to be friendlier than Kyiv.
- Ygg2 7y agoGotta love those Stepford smiles, right?
- geoka9 7y agoJust chatting up people in the streets. Or accidentally bumping into someone at a busy place. Or greeting a stranger who's walking by...
- Ygg2 7y agoThis may surprise you but you can talk to people that aren't smiling. To me the smiles are noise. Just people putting a frown, because of fake it till you make it attitude. Or even worse Business Mandated Happiness.
- geoka9 7y agoWell, I did say 'friendly', not 'smiling'. And having lived in both countries, I had a lot of chances to compare the experiences.
