This is funny timing for me. I mentioned something related to my wife yesterday. When I was a kid, my perception of other countries was completely ridiculous. Low tech, uncivilized, impoverished, etc. compared to the USA. It took way too long for me to achieve a more realistic perspective of foreign countries at large. I’m not sure who to claim for this but the they surely belong to the previous generation or two.
