Europeans thinking a 2h trip is a long ass trip. Then they come visit North America thinking they can visit from coast to coast by car in two weeks.
North Americans going to Europe thinking it'll take 4 hours to go from one city to the next when they can actually cross three whole countries in that time frame.
The most culture shock I've ever experienced was being in southern France, craving some Italian, and realizing I can literally just go to Italy for dinner.
Hahahahaha right??? Ain't that crazy?
Edit:
Same happened to me. Was in South West of France. Saw a board on the highway that said Barcelona was 3h away. Like what????
So we went to Barcelona for a weekend because why the fuck not.
2h is a long ass trip we've just been gaslit
If only we had a high speed rail system like in Japan...
Am European. I drove from sfo to nyc in 4.5 days. Would I do that again? No.
Same, took 5. Still brutal as hell
Honestly I blame American TV for this. Especially anything involving the FBI! In Hannibal they zip between states non stop like it's nothing. I assume it's all supposed to be happening over many days, but it just seems like they're going to and from work in Minnesota and home in Virginia lol
No we don't think 2 hours is a long ass trip. We think 2 hours is a long ass commute.
I've done LA to DC in a week. You just don't pass through many cool places along the way.
But man, can you look at some fucking corn.
The Plains go on, and on, and on, and on...
