My favorite "Americans vs Europeans" joke: Q: What's the difference between an American and a European person? A: A European thinks 100 km is a large distance. An American thinks a hundred years is a long time. I definitely qualify as a European in this regard; "only 6 hours" is super long to travel for me.
