As Asian,I feel more related to European. 😂
Asia is next door to Europe
I mean it's funny and all but can we not call it "european" as if it was one country. Hungary and Belgium are as much the same country as India and Japan
So true
@@ede2362 i mean all of Asia has similarities too, theres more similarities between those two continents than America 😭
@@ede2362if you mean traditions and behaviors isn't it the same in the US? Like california and texas?
As a European, I will NEVER ever understand how Americans can walk inside their houses with shoes on. Never.
Many of us don’t! We have always removed our shoes, South Carolina here!❤
My family doesn't
I live in Wisconsin.. forty years old.. almost everyone I have ever met removes their shoes at the door. I'd honestly be pissed if someone just walked into my house with shoes.
My Dad had diabetes and was told to always protect his feet. They didn't make size 15 EEEE slippers back then!🤷♀️😂 So he just wore the boots and shoes his work issued him, which were steel-toed and extremely heavy.
So what?
I‘m a German living in the US. I still can‘t get over people going grocery shopping in their literal pajamas!! 😂
We like to save time by not worrying how we look 😂
But I heard in america women wouldn't go without makeuo on. @@anlingitalia
I’m American and I can’t get over that either. 🤷♀️
As an American, I am highly disgusted at the thought of wearing pajamas outside (especially as an adult).
Spanish here…Me neither! Or men wearing shorts with tights during freezing months😮
As a South African, I am so glad I have European ancestors. I can totally relate.
Me too!
Hm, sorry to tell you, americans have european ancestors too 😂
Literally anyone who is white has European ancestors lmfaoooo
😂😂😂
So do most Americans, but it didn't help 😂
As a norwegian, we do not leave the shoes outside, but we have a special place for them by the door.
Poland here
same
Anch'io che sono italiana non le lascio fuori, ma abbiamo un posto accanto alla porta.
Portugal and russia too
@@maksimnalivaiko3347 nice
Germany same
I'm in the UK but I grew up in Germany. My shoes come off as soon as I'm home. Slippers are so much more comfortable anyway, not to mention not tracking dirt and footprints through the house. It's a win-win!
Im from Germany and I was kind of shocked to see that americans dont take their shoes off when they get home. Slippers are much more comfortable!!😅
Shoes come off in the vestibule..big fluffy slippers go on...
Shoes off as soon as I walk through the door but I use my slippers to go out into the garden
In Poland we also use them and it is very rude to come to the house in shoes, it is more hygenic 😊
Exactly! No shoes in the house only slippers
Good to know Europeans are just like us Asians when it comes to no shoes in the house 🤝
I’m Czech and all living spaces here have a specific place to put shoes and hang coats by the entrance.
@@MeiosisMaster I think some American homes do too! Just… most of them usually don’t take off their shoes
Not all the European countries leave their shoes outside.. here in Spain we dont do that ...
@@sofiaalonso5713 Huh, I didn’t know that!
Lol all these people feeling the need to tell they do the opposite 😂 we all know that 😂 that's not what this is about
Nutella -- Yummm!!! 🥰💖✨💞
I lived in Italy for years, and it's wonderful 🤤💖🇺🇸 As are so many elements of being there -- gorgeous ancient architecture, beautiful countryside, calmer pace of life, yummy food, amazing historic buildings... Lots of things to love 💖
Sì. l'Italia è veramente bellissima. Tutta.
Solo che negli ultimi anni l'immigrazione clandestina la sta stravolgendo. Gente fuori controllo che ruba e fa violenze.
American healthcare. We felt that in our souls, sister. 😔
Ask a Canadian Cancer Patient just how GREAT the American Health Care is. See, Canada, effectively, doesn't treat cancer patients. They have to jump through hoops and wait one year from the moment the cancer is suspected to the time they might start treatment. After one year, most patients are too far gone for treatment, or they are dead.
@@Objective-Observerexactly. Had to go to an emergency room just outside of Montreal maybe 15 years ago when visiting family. Left after 8 hours in the waiting room and decided it'd be faster to just drive back to the states
@@Objective-Observer Thanks to an obscure law in the Canadian Criminal Code dating back to the 1940s, it's illegal to possess, print, publish or sell a comic book that depicts any criminal act.
Have you ever experienced universal healthcare It sucks
@@Objective-Observercool. Too bad we can't afford it in the first place.
I agree. But don't leave your shoes outside. Critters go in warm things.
Have something inside doorway to store shoes.
That’s why almost all Europeans have a hallway 😉
Aka a hall.
I don't think I ever found an animal inside one of my shoes.
Possibly store them in a garage (if you have them in europe)
As an Europian we have those uhh rooms? Like first door and there a little room with coat hangers and wardrobes for shoes.
Cool video. I am going to use that in my English lessons to teach my middle schoolers in Austria about cultural difference :-)
as a American, i can relate to all the European stuff. (i don't drink coffee, however) and i must agree, when i tried bueno, IT WAS THE BEST THING EVER
Yes THANK YOU !!! 😜 I mean Reese pfff they just don't know better lol
I love both lol I'm not American
I'm British. Both are vile 😂
Im half American half European so I do a mix of everything
Europeans drink coffee. a lot of it. its just that in Europe, most coffees are shot sized and reeeaaally strong. but, we also have big cups of less strong coffee here.
As a Canadian I relate more to the European.
I literally came looking for this comment. Who would’ve thought Canadians would relate more to European? I was expecting us to relate more to American. 😮
Same.
Wearing your shoes in the house is disgusting.
Honestly I feel like it's Americans vs rest of the world... apparently Americans are pretty unique 😂
@@lordmysticlaw1991Obviously it’s not even America/Americans. It‘s only the US.
Yup!
As a Brazilian born Chinese living in Canada, I can relate 100% with the European way of doing things 😆
Que mistura de raças moço👏👏👏 eu brasileira me identifiquei com os Ingleses também
Brazilian Born chinese??? You're chinese that happened to be born in Brazil LOL..
Kkkk adorei 😂 😍
Same, as a Canadian..lol
Eu achei quase tudo do Europeu parecido, até nas moedas.
Lived in Europe for 7 years, and this is spot on! SO TRUE!!!
English here - make of that what you will… we don’t leave shoes outside. They’ll either get wet, stolen or forgotten about. We have a special place by the front door which is either a shoe rack or the floor.
I'm Polish. Many people would leave they're shoes in front of the apartment doors in until 00s. Today not many people do it any more, but some still do.
As an Indian ,we can confirm we use shoe stand too ,I think british influence.
American here. Everyone who enters my house must take off their shoes. Disgusting not to.
In my part of the US, if you leave your shoes outside, you better check for scorpions before putting them on.
Yes same here in Sweden. We have place to put them in or on the entrance, but inside of course... Italy have other weatherconditions......
The healthcare one was too real 😂
What is the problem with Healthcare in the US that foreigners always talk about????
Don't people have insurance?
@@jaclynbannister1877not everyone can afford it, it's truly one of the worst inequalities in that country. And not everyone has a stable job which can offer to cover some of it either. The system is do needlessly complicated so people get confused and give up advocating for something that is quite literally a human right that the US makes you pay for.
its also the cost without insurance, like you are litterally fucked if you get banjaxxed and have no insurance, i heard some one got charged 12-15k for an ambulance ride once...@@jaclynbannister1877
Seriously! I just got a bill 2 days ago for a hospital stay. I was there for 3 days. The bill was originally $16k. They adjusted it, took $10k off. I still owe $6000! Ugh, American healthcare is the worst!
@@lesbiangoddess290 If you can't afford health insurance, you certainly couldn't afford the 45% income tax they pay to pay for that "free" health care!
As an American, our family leaves shoes on a rack in the entryway and wears house slippers or goes in socks or barefoot.
Seriously I know almost no one who wears their shoes in their home nowadays
I’m Canadian, so no shoes in the house. I’ll even tell people they can keep them on, because I’m in a wheelchair and my floors are dirty in the winter despite my best efforts. Nope, everyone takes them off, our walls around in complete shame they kept them on.
Yes, no shoes in my mams Irish house, or prepare for wooden spoon. 🤣🥄
Shoes in the house is definently a varies by family thing. My mom would have killed us if we wore shoes inside. (No we aren't Asian either.)
Barefoot, is thr worst
Brilliant. Love this. ❤❤ European all the way. ❤❤❤❤❤
As an American, I would like to say that DD-MM-YYYY makes SO MUCH MORE SENSE!!
Right?! Fellow American endorses this statement.
I don't think so. Eastern Canadian sounds weird when they do that, lol
Somebody admitted it ! 😅
of course😂😂
I think it rolls of the tongue better in the American version.
If you go month first it makes it short and sweet; January First,
Vs
“The first of January” or “One January”
It makes more sense for me, anyways.
Pluuusss, having the 1-12 first, then 1-31 second, then 00-99 for the year, it all looks more appealing to have the scaled dates ascending in order.
I'm Brazilian and in here we can relate 100% with your husband 😂❤
Almost 100%... Because the shoes at home we're like Americans...😅😢
@@amandamdesouza Here in Rio most of us hate entering our house with outside shoes, it's nasty and disrespectful.
We always ask who's visiting to take off its shoes and offer a flipflop, unless it's a big party or a group diner, them the house will be dirty in the end anyways.
We dont take our shoes off in South brazilian. But all the rest is like the european
@@amandamdesouzaIt depends on the household. In some families its a rule that you take your shoes off before entering, but its usually not imposed to visits, unless they're staying over.
Except for the coffee
Yea, that date thing is so weird because the entire world does it like Europe ,only the Americans do it differently. BTW, I keep forgetting to ask what part of Italy?
Japan has YYYY-MM-DD btw
@@Stepica As long as you go in ascending or descending order, not in some weird zig-zag order, it's fine
Alessio is from Friuli. He informed everyone about it with this video 😂
@@Stepicathey also read from right to left so it makes sense

Dear Americans, plz stop funding wars in other countries... save this money to give free health coverage and homes to your people.
Live and let live
Yes, cuz your free Healthcare is so great. Waiting months for cancer treatment and surgeries.
Agreed we need to stop funding foreign wars. We need to stop taxing our own people to death. And healthcare is not "free". Europeans are taxed to death for shitty government healthcare
As a Swiss, that lives in the US since 6 years, I can only say I’m so looking forward on moving back to civilization, moving back to Europe this year!
So true... It was hard to find the correct word... Civilization!
Switzerland is my dream.. ☁️❄☁️ 😌
😂😂😂
Since you were 6 years old or for 6 years?
What are you doing here in the in-civilization? You free to go and never comeback again 🤡
The European way of writing day-month-year, is the most logical way of writing dates. It just makes sense.
The real truth: 2024-02-29, and so on. Can then be sorted both on paper in cabinets by humans and by computers in folders and lists. Here's the ISO: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601
From a pragmatic perspective, the month is the most important piece of information. The number of day only makes sense within the context of what month it is. The year is tertiary, almost unimportant really. Therefore Americans start with the most important information, and go in that order.
@@mloffel5027From European perspective, for us is pragamtic day, month, year writting. Simply u pointing out what happend in that particular day of the month.
@@mloffel5027 not really. The month most of the time is the less important information, at least at my work. The day is the most important
@@samuelgordino the only way I can think of where that would be true is you need to know how far through the month you are because you have to hit monthly quotas or something. Very specific to certain jobs and doesn’t affect most people.
I'm a dane ( Denmark, Scandinavia)
NO shoes inside the house.
People will look at you if you don’t use a knife and fork when you eat..At the same time.
Hospitals and doctors + any examinations are of course free.
After birth you are EXPECTED to stay home for a year or divide it between you and the other parent.
You will get paid if you while studying.
5 weeks fully paid holiday and about 5-7 fully days paid to take care of yourself or others ( care- days).
If your child is sick you can stay home for 2 days and with full pay.
The downside: Taxes are about😮 52 %.
Same here in Germany 😬
Not on our total salary! First there are deductions. And then the percentage starts low. So you only pay maximum percent of the part of your income that after deductions exceeds a pretty decent living standard.
@@ChrisTina-qb6kl : 😊
I'm American. I would gladly pay taxes for those luxuries.
In my experience, part-time employees get no paid time off, and no healthcare.
Full-time employees usually have to wait a year before they start getting benefits. I'm very lucky. I started a new job and I'll get 6 days a year of paid time off, whoo! My husband has been working at his job for 15 and gets 12 days a year off. If you are sick without a drs note and no time off, you get in trouble. I get 3 days a year that I can be sick with a drs note. Usually it's expected to be one or two (I was told that by an HR person).
Moms get 8 weeks with their newborns. Rarely the dads get leave.
Most people avoid major operations or even getting insurance because they can't afford it and they tell themselves they "don't get sick." Healthcare providers still don't cover most healthcare coverage when we do get sick.
A lot of people, including those in their 20s and 30s will have hundreds of thousands of life insurance on themselves so if they die, their family will be taken care of. Because that's cheaper than taking care of yourself in America. I'm pretty sure that thought is subconscious.
We're a 3rd world country wearing a knock-off Gucci belt.
I would totally pay taxes for that. We already have high taxes anyways so just imagine not having to worry about healthcare etc. You could actually pick what you wanted to spend your money on and not live in fear of getting sick. Also in America if you get sick it’s very likely you will get fired from your job. And somehow people wonder why America has so many homeless people.
Canadian here and relate to almost all European. Exceptions are decimals, utensils (I'm working on it!) and dryer, though that's ONLY for sheets and towels, not clothing.
Always found it bizarre that in the US a person can legally buy a gun 3 years before they can legally get a beer.
“Healthcare” representation was accurate.
Already knew everyone was gonna be like “American healthcare, so true lololol” that bit was gimmicky. People always think the grass is greener. Smh.
Americans have significantly higher quality healthcare and more provider options to choose from. Most people have a decent employer that provides good insurance that covers most medical expenses. I'm sure there will be someone responding with "not me! I have high-deductible blah blah blah". But the reality is, most Americans have great healthcare. And if you're under a certain income bracket, Medicaid is completely free.
They like medicaid or whatever is called although to be fair my government is trying to destroy our public healthcare and education system so we can’t mock Americans like before 😂, still everyone supports public healthcare we just don’t support how it been runned , it’s 100% worth the 130€/per citizens we spend on it, by the way emergency waiting times are long because they closed all medical centers in smaller regions and cities so everyone end up at the emergency and because most don’t even need to be there like been there for a headache or changing band aid ect, although it changed a lot since covid appointment waiting time varies a lot from especially, region,city ect.
@@aclark446 Lies. Most people you know.
@@aclark446do they now? So you know “most” people? And do you know who gets that great insurance you speak of? The upper class and elites who can afford it.
Europeans usually dry their clothes outside on a washing line, when it’s not wintertime. It makes such a difference too as the clothes and bedding smell so fresh when they’re dried outside versus being dried in a dryer where they can sometimes smell stale or burnt/overheated.
Americans hang their clothes up inside or outside too.
If freshly washed clothes smell 'stale' you haven't washed them properly. In fact if the humidity is high or there is poor air circulation resulting in long dry time, clothing hung to dry develops unpleasant odors. Americans also aren't in the habit of 'burning' their clothing in the dryer.
Clothes hung outside to dry smell so bad! They have that earthy outside smell. My kids even start gagging at that smell. They smell nice and fresh coming out of a clean dryer. Plus clothes hung to dry, dry crunchy too. Lol. No thank you.
American here. I don't miss having to rewash clothes that birds had pooped on while we were drying them (the clothes) on the line.

Well THAT'S a surprise. 😉😂
Watching this I'm proud to be an European ;-)
As an Australian I relate more to Europeans than Americans 😂
same here in Brazil, even in the numbers we are more similar to the european version showed here

@@lilithiaabendstern6303 yes we’re still apart of the commonwealth. As of last year they’ve started producing $1 coins with the King’s effigy on them
As another Aussie, I agree.

I've heard that some people clean the soles of their shoes before they leave the house. So that you don't carry the dirt from the house outside. Wouldn't be good for the climate.
As a Canadian, I do not walk in my house with outdoor shoes on. I have a shoe rack near the door. I love Nutella, but it's more like a treat for me once in awhile. I do love a peanut butter and jam sandwich a little more often. I'm very careful what I pop into the dryer, I have a drying rack as well, so my clothes don't shrink and for my delicates. I do love European chocolate, but it's more expensive so I'm good with American chocolate bars too! I usually use month, day, year. Regarding coffee, I'm not a daily coffee drinker, but if I do drink coffee it needs to be in a large coffee cup, because if I am drinking coffee I'm having it with something like breakfast or a muffin, a croissant, a scone in the afternoon. I realize that's not the norm that's just my thing. Honestly, I'm more of a matcha tea drinker myself. One last thing, I live in a very multicultural city, so I love eating different types of ethnic food like Indian, Thai, Greek, Turkish, Lebanese, Japanese, Carribean not just hamburgers and pizza. Although I do love meat and potatoes... Oh I think I'm getting hungry now!😅

And there’s more!!! I am an American living over 26 years in Germany now. No making noise in your gardens on Sunday… PERIOD. You MUST clear the snow away in front of your house for pedestrians and the letter carrier. If it’s a sidewalk, then clear the sidewalk… if not, a path the width of your property on the side of the street and a path to your mailbox. All retail is closed on Sundays and holidays… shop ahead bro!!! You are not supposed to honk your horn. You shouldn’t leave your motor running while parked. Tons of intersections without traffic signs, so always right before left!!!! When walking in crowded public spaces, GERMANS will seldom try to avoid you or make space for you to pass by. When you meet your friends, always greet the ladies first in Germany…. So it’s sorta silly, but it means in the pub you walk around the table and greet the ladies, then again to greet the guys. In the last years they have loosened up on that and greet everyone at once. “Hallo Zusammen!” You wait for EVERYONE to get their drink, then everyone clinks classes specifically one on one while looking that person in the eye, saying “prost!” DO NOT TAKE A SIP BEFOREHAND!!! And YES!!! The beer is WAY BETTER in Germany!!!!
Where in usa were you from? Here in the pnw we have some amazing beers!
@@IdealContracting funny you should ask. Seattle area… grew up in Bothell WA. Yes there are some very good micro breweries in the PNW… but Germany is King of beer. The culture is serious. Each type of beer has a specific glass type… and having a good “head” on a beer is extremely important. And the “head” is thick creamy and aromatic… then there are Sommer mix beer drinks like Radler… Pilsner with Fanta Orange 50/50, Alster Pilsner with Sprite 50/50, Krefelder, Alt (dark beer) with Cola 50/50…. And many more… on a super hot day I like Schöfferhofer beer. hefeweizen with fresh fruits like pink grapefruit juice 50/50. Yes you most likely think it sounds awful… I did too at first till I tried them. Enjoy the PNW beers! Thomas Kemper was my fav back in the day!
@@hoopaholicstickum silver city brewing out of Washington actually brews one. Schofferhofer
The same in Austria. But countries vary a lot in Europe.
Funny thing but Americans do take their shoes off when entering a house. They do dress to go to the store unless you where in a strange area where they went in slippers. I've never seen it. Americans do have good manners, it depends, of course, how one was raised. They also wait for everyone at the table to receive their drink and/or food before starting. Men used to light lady's cigarettes when people used to smoke. And men do open or hold open doors for women. Beer is better in German!
We are Mexican, and we have a strict policy about no shoes inside our house, even for guests. But we have a small closet with individual storage for shoes at the entrance. My kids grew with this rule and for them is common sense to take their shoes at the entrance and put on their home shoes like crocs or slippers.
A-ți fost conolizati de spaniolii normal că va fost aplicată sistemul european. 😅
they were spot on with the kinder bueno being the best chocolate - it CANNOT be topped
I mean, we Do have good chocolate too. We have proper Belgian chocolate for instance, and every country from Sweden to Switzerland does really great bean-to-bar chocolate if in smaller quantities.
Cadburys is better
I’m from Sweden and I agree with the Italian about everything except the coffee. We don’t drink coffee in that small cups😂
In Spain we drink small cups of espresso coffee after lunch but big cups of coffee and milk for breakfast... Also. My Italian family takes big cups of capuccino for breakfast and smalls ones of espresso after lunch
The utensils thing, Americans back in the colonial days did eat fork in left hand knife in right hand, but when the Revolution came, they started switching fork-and-knife to signify they were no longer going to follow even the most common of everyday British customs.
Interesting now that story of Nazi Germany spotting American spies at dinner parties makes sense
Never heard that one before. Doesn’t matter the reasoning, Americans can and should eat properly with utensils, it’s really not that difficult.
@@Julia36D It's a tradition now, they probably do it for their ancestors, i've heard many other countries also follow old rules even though they don't need to anymore but do it for their ancestors
I'm completely european but I apparently eat the american way. Sort of. I cut up everything first and then abandon the knife 😅
EXCEPT - Americans use a lot of British place names. Don't understand that - thought they'd want to get away from same place names for towns and cities etc. Also, don't want any connections to Royalty, yet call their kids Duke, Prince Earl etc. What's that all about?!?!
You've highlighted so many differences in just a minute. great reel.
I love the guy though, he looks like Benjamin Burnley of Breaking Benjamin 🤘
Being an American my house runs more like a European house. No shoes on inside, the fork is always in the left hand, I no longer have an outdoor drying rack but I do have one in my laundry room and I always say day month year when giving out information. It does cause some confusion occasionally. And so much more that just makes sense.
You have rules about what hand to put your cutlery in? My family is a mix of left-handed and right-handed people and we were raised to just use whatever hand made the less mess while eating. I've never heard of specific cutlery rules here in Europe
How is being left handed European?
I cut with my left hand
I figure I'm right handed, fork goes in the right, I didn't do that swapping nonsense, so might as well cut with my left lol
I’m from Brazil and I can totally relate to all the European versions
As an American living in Australia, we do not wear shoes in the house, but we also DO NOT EVER FOR DAMN SURE leave the shoes outside. Have you seen our spiders?????
Gosto Austrália, mas nunca vou lá por causa de aranhas 😮 Como vocês vivem lá,coitados?
@@m.ry.1692 please visit Australia! The spiders & snakes are not licking their lips waiting to bite ... when it is very hot or certain areas, like overgrown areas ... don't walk barefoot or barelegged & don't put your hands into plants & containers you can't see. Google a poster on spider & snake identification, protection and what to do if bitten.
Snakes usually feel footsteps & slither away. A spider or snake is very vulnerable after a poisonous bite as they need time to make more venom, so they need to believe you are attacking them to take that risk. Bites can be dry. They are an important part of the ecosystem.
Nobody leaves the shoes outside in italy either. Sometimes not everything they shows is exactly like that. Like the eating nutella like that from the jar. Sure someone might but certainly not everyone, not even everyone buys it lol
As an Australian living in Australia, we leave our shoes outside under cover but do tend to give covered in boots and shoes a shake if they haven't been worn in awhile.
@@theatonementsight the fear hasn't worn off for us yet 🤣
About the drinking age, in my country ( Portugal) the minimum is 16. The same with Austria, Denmark and Belgium.
In Germany apparently is 14 ( under specific conditions).
So 18 is not reference in all the European countries.
Yeah in germany it's 16 for buying it on your own. But with guardians/parents 14. (E.g. in a restaurant you can have wine with your family)
In austria also 14 with parents
In France we recently raised the legal age for wine and beer from 14 to 16.
In Belgium, it's sixteen for wine and beer, but it's eighteen for the stronger stuff, like vodka.
@user-lq3wd5nx3f yes same applies to Germany! Hard alcohol can only be purchased if youa are 18+
As a European, I still struggle to comprehend how that thin transparent brownish liquid that is drunk in gallons could be referred to as “coffee”.
Never ever seen anything like that in 40 years of life being in the USA. Coffee isn't transparent. It is a myth you read online and ran with it so you can sh-t on a country that has states bigger than your countries within the EU, with different cultures, accents, dialects, etc.
As an American I struggle to understand the same thing.
Depends where you're from. Germans do understand thin coffee. As a German married to an Austrian, we have agreed that what I make isn't "coffee" (Kaffée) but "caf" (Káffe).

Black American woman here. That part about American healthcare hit me real hard. The financial toll it takes on us is overwhelming
It's either get a good job with Healthcare in America, or get absolutely horrible universal Healthcare that's run like a DMV and doesn't even treat everything. We're blessed in America.

The healthcare part is where im very greatful to be living in Europe honestly, imagine working so hard already and having to pay almost all of that money for your health 😢😢😢
You can thank functioning democracy for that. Something, so called palestinians whose you seem to support (pfp), are wholeheartedly against
So make other people pay it for you.
@@petitemaamno, everyone contributes and everyone gets healthcare.
Especially compared to muslim countries, Europe is like paradise ❤
@@grumpycrumbles7360 watch out. Bro reported my comment only cause I said that Gaza isn't democracy 😂
It’s no just European, in fact the ENTIRE WORLD do things one way and only Americans do it the other
I gotta say how they do day month and year makes more sense
Yes. It is so confusing for me to interact with US americans professionally and talking about Meeting Dates. Always have to Double Check 😅😅😅😅 D/M/Y is easier to remember
Yes, you go from the smallest thing to the biggest thing! That makes way more sense
@@TheSarahskaninchen I'm sure it is because Americans SAY the month first, so they say "January 2, 1922" when talking . They don't say "the 2nd of January, 1922" - so they write it the way they say it. It's really that simple. Obviously occasionally people might say "the second of January..." but it is less concise.
OK, in Europe, except UK, we say two january 2022
Hehe here in Europe we write dates like 26.2.2024 !
As a Russian, I can def say that I relate to the European, 100%. When I was a child, I would wonder why Americans didn't take off their shoes indoors, it did look alien to me (in movies).
Btw, Bueno is one of the best things humanity ever made.
my wife has had multiple foot surgeries and cannot walk barefoot. but really, the normal american custom is to take their shoes off once they are "home for the night" and a lot more houses in America have places for shoes at the front door than europeans think.
but when my parents had their new house built, the consensus was that at the time, 3 of the 3 people living there wore work boots, and none of us were going to go to the trouble of taking them off and putting them back on if we were just ducking inside for lunch.
I live in the Midwest of US and I don't know anyone who doesn't take their shoes off as soon as they come in the door. This girl does not speak for most regular Americans!
I've alwasy wondered why that is in TV shows and movies (maybe a fire safety thing while on a set?). But it's only in TV shows and movies.
Самый лучший вариант узнать о жизни другой страны по фильмам. Неужели все россияне пьют до потери пульса по поводу и без , и мужчины и женщины?
In American movies, they even have their shoes on with their feet up on their beds or in their sofas!
I think you mean the world vs. America
And because at least 70% of these are complete hogwash it makes sense why the world usually has no clue what Americans actually live like.
Yeah, pretty much!!
Agreed. Australia here, and we are more like Europeans than Americans also.
@@roygeorge5364 i am australian and i only do the utensil bit
@@iloveeggsandbacon our dates are written the same as Europe, and we use washing lines over dryers in Oz mate. And every stoner I see has their spoon in the Nutella jar. 🤣 The only thing I don't do is the shoes - I have no carpet, only tiling to combat the heat, so I don't care if people wear their shoes inside. I still reckon we are closer to the Europeans than the Americans - the largest concentration of Greeks outside of Greece is in Australia mate. 👍 Enjoy the rest of your day bud.
I grew up with an Italian dad and Croatian mom (lived in Canada whole life), and we always did more of the European things (however shoes would be left in front entryway on mat or rack, not outdoors). Although I never grew up with PB&J sandwiches, but instead peanut butter and nutella ones (combined 😋). I visited Italy for the first time 2 summers ago, and the biggest shock (and hardest adjustment) was the coffees. I'm used to a nice large mug of regular brew coffee that I sip late morning (or a plain iced coffee with milk, none of the whippy drizzle stuff). In 3 major cities in Italy, I - by some miracle (thank you Florence) - found one corner cafe that did an iced Americano (closest to true iced coffee I could find). While the standard italian mini coffees (more like espresso) taste delicious, theyre done too quickly and give me crazy jitters. Any Italians or people who have traveled Italy extensively, would love any recommendations for Western style coffee places for my next visit 😅
For shoes in the house it depends on the country. In France you take off your shoes when you’re inside but if you are just passing by to pick up something usually you keep them on. Sometimes guests keep their shoes on. Some old people wear shoes all the time.
I had French guests who would defy me asking them to take off shoes, they would say, the floor is too cold. And they never ask me to take shoes off at their home.
That is the same in the Netherlands!
Yes, most of the time you won't ask your guests to take off theirs shoes so they would not have to focus on having good socks, or getting cold, or just having to do any unconfortable effort... If they insist you tell them that your floor is not perfectly clean anyway, social code, to make them confortable. Many french people I know who live in a house keep their shoes first floor.
I’m from Italy and we never take off our shoes at home either. But after years living abroad now I always do it as soon as I get home, even when I’m a guest. In Austria (where I currently live) everyone takes off their shoes when home. Even guests
European. Spaniard. We enter with our shoes on. Visits keep them on. We put our slippers inside, and *HAVE MATS* outside to clean our shoes!!!!!
I'm from Italy too and it really depends on the person. As for me I never wear my shoes inside, I always take them off. I have friends that are like me and other friends who walks with their shoes in their home. But yeah, it's not a common rule to take off the shoes
I'm Dutch and I keep them on inside as well. Our streets are quite clean so unless I've walked in mud/sand, dogpoo, or it was wet outside and my shoes are wet, there isn't really a reason to take off my shoes. My house is also badly insulated so wearing shoes inside is the only way to keep my feet warm as slippers just won't do
@@Alicia-zf3nq streets can’t be clean !!!! It’s disgusting to wear shoes at home!
@@Alicia-zf3nqAre the streets clean to this level in the netherlands?🤣🤣
The streets are never clean😎
As an American living in Europe now I can attest to all of these.
I’m American but my parents are European so I’ve never worn my shoes inside the house
I’ve seen Americans hold utensils like toddlers more often than I care to admit
Lol. They mostly eat with their hands.
An in-law of mine still doesn't know how to hold a spoon after 60 years of being on this planet and he taught his kids his same habits
🤦🏻♂️
I'm an American and I'd estimate a full 70% of Americans eat like it's their first time ever seeing utensils. I find it both mind-boggling and embarrassing.
Most don’t learn Southern gentry, which is where most American manners come from.
Watching all these videos of you two makes me realize that I'm more European than American even though I've never been to Europe and was born in the USA and have always lived here.
Or perhaps the stereotypes Europes cast on all Americans isnt true and that Americans are far more diverse and not just a single person but hundreds of millions of different backgrounds
Same! Probably because these are just stereotypes that only apply to a small amount of the American population.
If you actually went to Europe, you wouldn’t feel the same. The cultural differences are vast.
@@ashleighsparkle8810 I've been to the Netherlands, France, the UK, and Germany as an American and I disagree.
@@snaeshaads8203 correction, lived in. Going on a one or two month holiday isn’t the same as living in a system.
As an American, no one in my immediate family wears shoes indoors. They come off as soon as we walk in the house.
Yea us too I taught that to my kids from 2 yrs old no one wears shoes in my house, now my grand babies know to take their shoes off come on not all American household wear shoes into the house, really??
Same here. I think it's from growing up in the country for me. If we wore shoes inside the entryway would've been filthy.
@@lydiam6458 small town girl here.
I know more Americans that take off their shoes, I have only come across 1 Italian in 5 years here that does it. My husband said he doesn't know anyone that does except our neighbor.
I've never known people who don't take off their shoes when entering a home; especially as a guest. I'd think in forty years if most Americans wore shoes in the house that I would have come across this more often.
Best thing... Easter egg... Was the Friuli Flag!!!! So proud of you! Braf e vonde! @ThePasinis
American here. Grew up in N Midwest. Lots of snow and ice with salt + sand used. Summers were often wet and muddy. We definitely all took shoes off in the house.
I don't always now that I live in a different area and my house has 90% tile floors and I find it easier for me to run garbage out and take kids places if Ive got shoes already on, but I still ALWAYS remove my shoes when I walk into others houses.
I feel the one about Healthcare. it's the one system that should be totally torn down and redone. It's a disaster
💯
The problem is Americans are unwilling to pay higher taxes, because freedom and stuff.
Plenty of Americans in Northern climates take their shoes off when entering the house. It's so we don't track snow in the house. We don't put the shoes outside, though. Usually there's a dedicated "wet shoe" spot by the door to put the shoes.
Yes- THANK YOU!! I'm in the Midwest and I don't know ANYONE who comes home and leaves their shoes on!!
This whole thread is embarrassing with all the Europeans and Asians thinking we're a bunch of heathens for not removing shoes- but WE DO!
@@eMegMBea to be fair, when I lived in New Mexico nobody took their shoes off. But here in WNY pretty much everyone takes their shoes off. It's a regional thing because of snow, but yeah they shouldn't generalize it like it's the whole country
And there are also plenty Europeans who leave their shoes on inside the house 🤷♀️
@@eMegMBeavery untrue. It’s incredibly uncommon for Americans to remove shoes inside. And if any do, it’s usually hit for the same reasons that people in other countries remove their shoes indoors.
@@originalslicey not in the northern half of the country
So true!!! It is scary how accurate your comparisons are. From a fellow European over here
Lol the whole switching hands for fork and knife. I don't do that. But now I'm going to start praying attention to everyone around me!😂
I don’t think any of us do that! We just eat the morsel we cut with the hand our fork is already in.
@@4beachpeaches I never paid attention to what other people were doing, but I will now! I just assumed we eat with the hand our fork that had the morsel.
I do that switching fork and knife thing. Many Americans do 😁
I don't even use a knife (or if I do it's the "american" way) I'm European.
Visiting relatives in the USA, they cooked dinner for us. I noticed I was missing a knife and was just about to alert the host, figuring they have just miscounted, but then I realized none had a knife, just forks. Wich was really weird to me.
This is so so true. I've lived in the states for many years but I still take my shoes off outside (required from guests too) I still eat and love Nutella, still drink small coffee, still use drying rack to dry my laundry and love it, eat with fork and knife, still get confused about the dates and decimals and still get angry about the health care system here in the US. But, go grocery shopping in sweat pants😂. When my parents visit, they're shocked I wear sweats outside😂
I find team EU the winners. ❤
That Healthcare thing was personal 😂😂😂😂
In Germany, the legal drinking age is actually 14 (with your parents supervision) for not so strong alcoholic drink such as beer and wine. 16 for if you want to buy and drink it yourself though
In Sweden there is No age limit when supervised and in limited quantity, 18 in bars and 20 to buy stuff to walk away with. The no-age-limit thing is not very well known, but very clear in the law text and was originally so ppl didn't have to break the law for communion, graduation, and learning to drink responsible and handle your drink at home.
The legal age is 18 in the UK. If you don’t have I.D, you have to look 25 or over. At 16 & 17, you can drink beer, cider & wine with a meal if accompanied by an adult.
In the UK you can drink at age 5 in your own home
Visiting Illinois a young clerk asked for ID, then he said I could be he's father 😂
The “no shoes in the house” rule is really a personal preference for each household here in the US. At my place we take our shoes off at the door; at my friend’s place they wear their shoes on their bed🤷♀️
Filthy :s
Eeewww! Working in healthcare and living in the Midwest with our range of weather- shoes in the house is so gross!
😂😅 Not even household. I would say personal preference. I can't stand shoes/socks/slippers so absolutely kick them off immediately inside door. Hubby is completely opposite and never lets his feet touch the floor. Our house rule is 'whatever makes you comfortable '.
As a Canadian, I relate more to the European.
I’m Mexican. Everything european is more relatable to us.
Yeah I guess I’m more European…but you forgot the bidet. We have one of those too! 😂
You won't find a bidet in The Netherlands.
(Generally speaking)
I have observed these in the various vlogs I watched on here... Another thing is Europeans usually use more small cars, walk more and do more public transport. Then there are the recycling machines in the grocery stores where you could drop recyclable cans or bottles and get cash from them...
As an Asian, everything the European did was pretty relatable, except some things. We put out shoes inside a cabinet and wear slippers in the house. In my country, we like bueno as well, but we tend to favour raffaello, even if it is expensive
Rafaello ❤️🤌
In Europe we love Raffaello and Mon Cherie.
I’ve never tried Raffaello, but I do love its counterpart, Ferrero Rocher.
A lot of Brits tend to take their shoes off indoors & either use a rack or cabinet.
Depends on your are for these things. I'm American and live in Europe. In America, my family always took off shoes at the door.

Here in Portugall the most common is you get yourself comfortable changing into sleepers when you get home but you don't do it at the entrance unleas your shoes are wet and or muddy. If you have guests they do not take off their shoes. I love the idea of everyone taking off their shoes but in reality portuguese houses are cold in the winter, so unleas you provided sleepers asking oeople to do that woudn' t be reasonable. Other thing is that being in other peoples homes only with stocks is too much intimacy ( with sleepers would be ok). How do people deal with smellly feet? There's people who who naturally has smelly feet, no matter how clean they are?
Smelly feet must indicate some health issue.
Brazil has your heritage in this matter too! First thing getting home is putting shoes off and sleepers on. I also have this doubt about guests and smelly feet 😅 let the guest with their shoes.
We are closer to european than american way.
@@katiaschwarzer7310where??? I lived in Brasil and I never seen that!! Everybody uses shoes IN!!
@@evaskjerdI live in São Paulo, always get my shoes off and put my "havaianas" - flip flops. Everybody that I know do pretty much same thing, is too hot most of the time so taking off the shoes is a relief 😂
The coffee is too accurate!😂

All so very true! Born and raised in Europe, later moved to America... Cultural shocks...
Judging from the coments, "U.S. vs. The rest of the world" would be a more accurate title. 😆
Healthcare Lmaoooo that made me laugh so hard
You guys are awesome
I had two ER visits inside of 3 months... I have 11 bills.
Honestly, the decimal one makes sense for Americans. A period stops a sentence and it stops the whole numbers in a number. A comma is used in the middle of a sentence before the period, and a comma is used in the middle of a number before the period.
Doesn’t make sense.
Like inchs. Should be metric.
@@mariamendola inches make perfect sense. 2.54 centimeters. 🤷♂️
@@tigerlover7359 doesn’t make any sense. The only reason you use such an unlogical measure it’s because England didn’t want to use anything that could remind that France is better than England.
@@mariamendola if you’re going to insult England, at least use the correct words. It’s “illogical,” not “unlogical.” Secondly, English is the most spoken language in the world, so shouldn’t that mean all measurements should be imperial?
@@tigerlover7359 and it’s not true that English is the most spoken language. You can Google it.
American. I never understood the switching hands to cut things. I'm right handed so I just put the fork in my right hand and the knife in my left hand and I'm good to go. Cutting is an easy motion for me in my off hand. Now if I need to butter toast or something I'm going to hold the toast with my left hand and butter knife in my right hand.
I heard the explanation that to put knife aside was a gesture of " I am not intending to hurt you/ kill you/ ..it origins from old times...not sure how true it is but it kinda make sense
I'm American and I refuse to do this.
Old 13th generation American here who loves Europe and has been there over 20 times.This video is spot on!!!😅 If I was 30 and rich,I'd move to Canada.

As a European... I've never seen anyone leave their shoes at the door.
The Swiss do
Me neither
Les chaussures dans l'entrée pas dehors
Do you live in a muddy part of Europe? I'm from Normandy in North Western France, it's very muddy and most houses had bare compacted dirt as a floor so people kept their shoes inside, even now that we have tiled floors we still keep shoes in the house except upstairs or in bedrooms.
I'm Canadian, and I totally relate to taking the shoes off by the front door..lol.
As an English person I rewatched to count: I agree with European on all except decimals and no-one in my family drinks much coffee so can't really give an answer for that one! I know lots of people who have driers though, just in our house we use a line! Also I just don't like nuts so that gets European 2 points! And shoes are left in the porch (thats what my family calls it although it has many different names in England) which is in the front of the house and has a shoe rack and coat hooks etc!
Apparently, I’m mostly European 😂🤣😂
