| Message | Liking what I'm reading but can we have some pictures of good-looking guys abroad? Get one of your female friends to do it for you . Anyway! I just wanted to share a quick anticdote. A friend of mine travelled to America (LA) for work and when he arrived at his hotel decided to go for a walk. He noticed people staring at him as they drove passed and thought nothing of it. At the office the next day he brought it up and his work colleague replied "oh they would have thought you were homeless, because nobody walks in LA", he went on to say "they would have been thinking, gee, he's a well dressed homeless guy!". To me that kind of sums up the spirit of America in a nutshell; walking equates to ‘poor person’, not taking in the sites and the culture or getting some exercise. BTW, I’ve visited America 3 times and I couldn’t agree more with your insights. |
