I, Claudia: How to Spot Europeans in the US
Manage episode 436377490 series 2900415
Claudia flips the script to highlight what makes Europeans stand out in the US. From childhood wonder at green road signs and skyscrapers to adult realities of being constantly recognized as European, it’s a wild ride. Accents, non-Hollywood teeth, and confusion over American coffee sizes are dead giveaways. Metric system struggles, tipping etiquette, and small talk woes add to the fun. Spotting a European? Look for someone squinting at grocery labels or fumbling with cash. Be kind and offer a good espresso—they're navigating a land where football means two things!
