It is very welcoming. Yes it is American-heavy, but even that sounds negative. It might just as well be called intelligence-heavy or open-minded-heavy.
Sky you won't see the cultural and language differences because you are not the foreigner here. I can point some out to you if you're interested - I didn't initially because it might have sounded like a complaint. I choose to post here and I have no issue with the demographic at all. I guess I just wondered if anyone else acknowledged it.
Dana described Monster as our translator the other night - and not just in language (we're exposed to enough American TV/ movies to work most things out). But more to do with culture and attitude. In fact I think Monster works more to translate us for you - or at least me. A couple of times she's advised me that the thing I am protesting is quite normal and acceptable. I appreciate it.
I do welcome the differences. It's the same reason I love to travel in the UK, and travelled abroad when I had the funds. I like to eat other people's bread and drink their beer.
Well, it saves buying my own
