Re: Cultural differences - privacy

I'm from Minnesota, which is pretty much known for almost everyone here being descendents of Scandinavian immigrants, Norwegians in particular. But it sounds like our "culture" is the polar opposite - we have a saying here called "Minnesota nice", referring to everyone being friendly, chatty, and willing to cook up some hot dish for the community potluck. lol Of course, the Scandinavian roots at this point are mostly pretty thin, but some old people can speak Norwegian (both of my grandfathers could) and we eat things like lutefisk and lefse, and say "uffda" hahaha.

That being said, as far as physical personal space we're a bit "cold" - our conversations involve standing relatively far from one another, and we don't do a lot of physical touching except with close friends. Other than that, though, I think we're very casual in how we address each other, strangers included.
