Hi Sylvia welcome to the usa. America is vast and different from one state to the next. If you like nature you should check out some of the national parks. The people very from place to place as well. I hope your enjoying your time here.

Hello happy new year 🎊, thank you for welcoming me☺️and yes I’m very much enjoying my time here. I love the fact that there are people from different parts of the world in the US and I love nature btw. I’ve been busy with school and everything else the past year and haven’t had the chance to visit that many places. That’s my goal for 2021🥰I’m gonna try and explore different states and see all the beautiful gifts of that nature has to offer.

Great video... by the way in the U.S. it is rude to stare at people so the smile is actually a way of being polite when you make eye contact with a stranger. But yes, it can be seen as fake as well, haha! I would love to see an update to this video especially for someone from the US going to Kenya.

@nakokonya250 2 года назад
That could be true, my only problem is that it's very fake, not an ounce of realness in the smile most of the time😅 yes I will definitely do a video on going back to Kenya. I'm sure I'll have reverse culture shock 🤣

I like how you speak and I had no trouble understanding that you are asking for a glass of water unfortunately there are lots of people in America that have not had exposure to other languages or cultures and so if someone doesn't ask something perfectly and sometimes even if someone is born in America from a different part of the country they might have a little trouble understanding what they are asking.
@nakokonya250
@nakokonya250 3 года назад
Thank you and I totally agree with you. I recently met these two guys who asked for our names( I was with a friend) we told them our first names and they responded by asking us ‘what are your real names?’ They thought that we were giving them fake names which we thought were easier to pronounce.They also corrected the way we pronounced some words and complained about their lecturer who’s Chinese. They ranted about how he pronounces words and stuff.They had literally no idea about what the rest of the world is like, zero exposure. We live in an age of technology and if you want exposure, I believe you can get it.
