As an old saying goes, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do” I learned the meaning of this when I studied in Russia
One day I invited some of my Chinese friends to a famous local restaurant in Moscow My guests and I were excited from visiting Red Square and happy about our meeting We talked excitedly until the waiter told me that
we were being too loud We lowered our voices But this didn’t last long The waiter came over to us two more times with the same message
How bad an impression we must have left on the local people! In China, it’s natural and important for a host to make a lively atmosphere（气氛） However, in Russia and Western countries, having a meal in a public place means you must keep your voice low You need to be polite to others
I felt bad about this Even though we tried our best, it’s very difficult to develop a new habit
Russians have their own special habits My Russian friend Andrey always looks around and thinks for a while before leaving home I asked him why he did this “Aha,” Andrey said “In Russia, people always take about a minute to go over things and plans in their minds before leaving So they won’t leave anything necessary behind”
Finding the differences between cultures is much fun I’d like to keep my eyes and mind open
