The value that I, as a Yank (a US person), see in this post is the personal glimpse into another part of the world that I may never get a chance to see in person. And what I saw through this is that we are not very different as people no matter where we live. Our desires are similar. Our quandaries are similar. Our basic needs are similar. This reality is reaffirming because so much of what we hear on the media is that ‘they are different than us’ and that simply isn’t true.
Great post!
