10 things I miss about the USA (after 10 years in Europe) | Story 6 

I am from the Midwest as well. Just found you from your living in CR video. I’ve always heard that Italy and Europe in general has way better food then we do in the US. That the grain is good for you and vegetables grown without genetic modification and more organic and they have strict laws on processed/dyed foods? Being from the Midwest I’ve heard so many times Italy’s wheat is non GMO as well. Lol I was hoping that was true because I have stated it as fact to way too many people ha!

I'm curious what motivated you to settle long term in places like Czech Republic, Italy, etc? Vs. continuing to visit new places, spend a few months, etc. What I'm struggling with at the moment is deciding on where to settle, vs. continuing to live in new places for a 4 months, 6 months, and just continue doing that.

If you're looking for easy returns in Italy,it's better to opt for amazon. As for other places,it's depends but in general it's not such a pleasant experience when they will probably refuse or say smth like you can't have your money back but just take something else instead of the thing you want to return

I find the selection of foods in USA groceries overwhelming and stressful. Why so many kinds of everything? Most of it is overprocessed and hence cr*p quality anyways (unless you go to specialized isles of Whole Foods, etc). I like grocery shopping in Europe much more. But we are all different...

Yeah, I don’t get why gym memberships are so expensive in Prague. And the person saying Prague libraries have English sections don’t understand how extensive American libraries are.

Interesting points! diversity and gyms are somewhat understandable, while library was most unexpected for me :) However regarding health industry, i suppose if we consider distances in US and prices in US, then i was under the impression that similar service are available in Europe too, we just do not use them much as they are just expensive coz they are private clinics and far away, but both those characteristics should be quite similar as in US when i would live in smaller town not big city. Do i miss something? Good luck in Italy!

Meijer sells brand name clothes now! I love it

Are you coming back to the Czech Republic?

On the diversity, I have completely different opinion. Especially the part about "opinions". Healthcare, that is a long discussion in every country. But the first four, me too! The libraries bit, I just do not follow. You would never complain about not having a czech language library in New York, that is insane. Checking out books is normal. Prague libraries have extensive english departments. To sum it up, most of all, you miss your family,? :) I am looking forward cz/ita comparison. Cheers.

Do you have instagram?
