That Texas is actually cold. In my mind it’d be a desert like Arabia where it’s hot all day everyday. My favorite thing is that everything is available here, starting from streaming / online services to goods. Least favorite: drugs are commonplace and sort of normalized, in Moldova they’re a huge taboo. Here addiction seems to be a huge common issue. Alcohol laws: in Moldova I have the occasional glass of wine / champagne with my dad since I was 14. Here alcohol is this big wow thing. I like the food, especially Texan BBQ.
I honestly haven’t felt much of a culture shock. Maybe cause I’m white and Eastern European culture is not that “exotic” (different). I felt like I fit right in from the beginning.
