Not to shit on the US or anything, but they tend to get surprised when they fly over here and discover how friendly and welcoming we Filipinos are but that's just part of our culture. And yeah, just from my observation, folks from the other side tend to keep to themselves and mind their own business—and even though it's not actually a bad thing, it just seemed kind of cold.
On the other hand, there could be areas in this place where people could be complete assholes or areas in the US where people were just as welcoming and treat everyone like family.
The point I'm trying to make was like Grace, Mrs. Dewey found it hard to believe that we'd just give away stuff for free—well, not technically free—for people she never knew or heard of until recently. However, I did call her out on this place's business model because they've also been helping people without asking for money first, and I found it contradictory to what she was currently saying about us giving her stuff.
