I'm Canadian. I love how kindness and politeness is a core part of our culture

@LowOnSpoons

I am Polish.

In food: pierogi, zurek, cottage cheese pancakes (I've heard they taste and look more like French than American ones).

In people: no fake smiles in general - either you like someone, or you don't - people don't hide their feelings towards other humans (obviously, there is a difference between being open or polite and being fake); also, you may try to smile, but you don't have to look like a million dollar when sick, exhausted or confused (though some people tend to overuse it 😉).

In nature: you can walk freely to most of the forests and there are very few private beaches.

@jacek73 I spent some time in Poland and I found the people to be warm and hospitable, ate in McDonald's though but that's me, not too adventurous when it comes to food 😁🥰

Personally I am not very keen on any healthy diet, too. But I don't like eating at McD, because it only makes me poorer and more hungry 😉

@LowOnSpoons I'm Irish and we are known for our welcome, our sense of humour, saying it as it is, our manners and of course our leprechauns 😁

As a Scot we are hospitable and welcoming. Kind and caring.

We speak our minds and with a dry sense of humour.

My favorite part of my culture is resilience and joy. There is so much poverty in my region but you still see people smiling and helping each other and living their life with grace and bravery.
