Different Lifestyles Around The World

My family moved to Sweden because of my dad's job. I went to school there for a year. Well, I didn't like it. The class was so noisy. Students would ask questions all the time. They spoke while the teacher was speaking and shouted at each other. They even sat under their desks. They sometimes called teachers by their first name. I thought it was rude! It's quite different from studying in my country.

Lan Tran, Viet Nam

I went to a foreign country and stayed with my friend's family. When I arrived, they showed me a dog and asked: "Do you like this dog?" I said: "Yeah, yeah." When it was time for dinner, I went to the kitchen and saw a plate of steaming meat. I asked: "What is this?" and they all said: "Dog meat". Oh God! They cooked the dog! I said I liked the dog, and they cooked it. I started crying, and broke down at the table.
