Alice and I met once more to have a conversation meeting. We discussed the cultural similarities between Italy and the USA. I had always believed that Americans were very loud compared to other cultures, but Alice does not see Americans as particularly loud. Alice talked about how when she lived in Australia, there were designated spaces on the train where people could not talk because Australians talked so much even on public transit. We also talked about public transit in America vs Italy. It is much more expensive to ride public transportation in the USA vs anywhere that Alice has lived. She was rather shocked at the cost of taking the train between cities in the USA.
