Truthfully I don't think we can put all westerners in the same category. I am definitly different than my British or German brothers. Nice to see that someone likes to people watch as much as I do though. ;-)

i done correct way my conclusion is right
Gotta 2nd Dracula on tht point...
Asians: Love sightseeing & enjoy the scenery back home after they upload all the snaps taken on the trip.
Westerns: They learn alot before actually making the trip & then enjoi the whole trip till it last.
WRONG:Travelling
"Asians: Love sightseeing and enjoy the scenery"
AN ASIAN WITHOUT CAMERA IS LIKE A VAMPIRE WITHOUT BLOOD! :)
well, i m sure you are mistaken, ad exchanged Westerners line with the "Asians", i.e. all above exactly th other way around.
For example:
Westerners: The kid is going to be independent and make his/her own living.
Asians: Slog whole life for the kids, the centre of your life
Westerners: Queuing in an orderly manner.
Asians: Queuing?! What's that?
Westerners: The boss is part of the team.
Asians: The boss is a fierce god.
and so on..
.. i think, you changed the lines mistakenly..
