Episode Description from the Publisher

Why do Europeans often think Americans are "fake"? And why does a simple compliment carry an entirely different weight in France compared to the US? In this episode of the Dating Beyond Borders podcast, I sit down with content creator Roya Fox to unpack what living abroad reveals about the American mindset.When you leave your home country, you start seeing your own culture from the outside. In this conversation, we dive into the hidden mechanics of American social norms: the baseline pressure of constant positivity, the contrast between high-context and low-context communication, the blunt honesty of European feedback and much more.Say hi to Roya: https://www.instagram.com/royaventurera/Each week I will interview guests from all around the world on the topics of culture, connection and of course, dating. The goal is to go as deep as possible and to really understand where we all come from and how much culture influences our life.Want to join the mailing list? https://datingbeyondborders.eo.page/newsletterSay hi on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/datingbeyondbordersDating Beyond Borders channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/datingbeyondborders
