We learned that the most important thing to understand about Americans is probably their devotion to individualism. They are tough since childhood to consider themselves as separate' individuals. At the same time they have been trained since kindergarten to find person or a group for games, later in college for studies.

If all people are equal why personal managers try to hire white persons. I don't want to say that it's bad or good, it's your "skeleton in the wardrobe". I've just mentioned it.

Those who live in USA are well know as very friendly people. They can say, "Hi, what's up?" to a complete stranger. They always have a smile or joke for you. But at the same time there are boundaries that other people are not supposed to cross. There yards, hous
