Soaking up some local color

David has lived most of his life in a big city. So I knew that coming to rural North Carolina would be a big transition. I have tried to explain how things are in my home culture, and how “No, you can’t walk to a grocery store,¨ and ¨No, you can´t ride a bicycle either because people aren’t used to bike riders out here and you would probably get run over.”

In just a week, David has experienced a lot of different “cultural” events.

My great-aunt’s funeral.

Hunting with my brother.

Chicken Dumplings.

First ever trip to Wal-Mart.

Made-in-NC sweet tea.

Walks outside surrounded by lots of falling leaves and squirrels.

Bluegrass music.

A wedding.

Mexican restaurant.

Barbeque.

Church service.

Let´s see what week 2 has in store!
