What would happen if...? 14 Years, 3 Months ago Karma: 0  
I've been thinking. What would happen if I made similar videos about living in American culture. Would people pay attention or just think I'm silly. I see lots of people becoming a part of my culture every day, but they don't seem to bother. Would it be helpful or interesting if I made similar videos about American culture?

Interesting! Most people in the US just make videos about their lives or area, but I do not think I have actually seen videos on the culture except historically.

It depends in what state you are in... America is so diverse I would say that it is hard to cover. Though there are general traits that can be attributed to Americans specifically that others do not recognize in their country. It would be helpful to cover social customs for foreigners coming to the US.

I listen to opinions from people living in other countries and can only wonder how America looks to the world. But it is hard to truly understand growing up here, thinking what we do is normal when it could be different elsewhere.

Well actually I grew up in Michigan, but I recently moved to Texas. If you don't think that moving from Michigan to Texas is like moving to another country you are wrong. I still feel like an outside sometimes in my own country. I was just thinking that it would be interesting to make some America how to videos like our lovely Japanese/Aussie friend is. I was just wondering if there were enough people from other places in the world that would be interested in watching it.

I wouldn't bother with the idea to be honest. If you were, for example, a Japanese person making videos on how western culture works while living in America, that would be a great idea.

Yeah that's kind of what I figured.
