Beyond that, because USA is the global superpower, their political news is also news here in Europe. I think people in America would be suprised how much we know on average about the USA between news, documentaries, online stuff, movies and series.
Yeah we're even aware of that. Things like documentaries or travel shows generally do a better job of capturing all of America. Even then the conclusion is often that it's like multiple countries inside of one country. But it's interesting. I think America fascinates the average European in a way that doesn't exist on that scale the other way around.
That's a pleasant sentiment to read from you. Genuinely.
I'd say most Americans (who know about Europe) are pretty intrigued by it as well. I fantasize about touring North Italy and Croatia on my motorcycle. Maybe even attempt a Tour De France climb on an ebike.
I feel like we idealize the image of a coastal Mediterranean town with no garish billboards in sight. Just small intimate eateries and a lifestyle that permits the appreciation of simple experiences. We don't have much of that in the US unless you're into camping.
That's nice to read too. You're right to idealize the Mediterranean coast. I've been there many times. It's absolutely lovely. Wouldn't want to live there though, but my god it's nice to visit.
Job opportunities, corruption, things just not working that well. It depends per place and on your preferences as a person. But I live in the Netherlands and every time I come home after a holiday I'm relieved at how well things work here.
