    Easy Reading
  

*by V***I on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 22, 2022*

I have trouble believing this author is a PH.D graduate. The story read like a middle school book report. Ok , maybe high school. I have lived outside the US so I get the cultural differences but I never disparaged my own country in the process. Every place is unique. He was paid by a school in the US to continue his education abroad and yet in every example the US is viewed as a poor example for others to experience. He doesn’t want to live here any longer which is fine but I would be interested to see if he wants his child to enjoy the academic world offered in the US when she is older

    Funny and Endearing Look at Cultural Differnces
  

*by R***O on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 4, 2015*

It is clear that Cody Brown has spent considerable time in Croatia.  He is right on target when he talks about the differences in culture between Croatia and America.  I laughed out loud when reading many of his thoughts regarding the many differences:  drinking coffee, overbearing mother-in-laws, drafts from open windows, partying and neighbors.  He went off track, however, in chapter 24 "Wild West vs Mild West" and gun violence in America.  In all the previous chapters Brown emphasized the closeness of families, the genuineness of the people, the love of children, the positive attitudes toward real friendships and the tolerance of others.  He even admits that other countries like Serbia has a similar number of guns per capita and then somehow explains that gun violence in America is due to the proliferation of guns and gun ownership.  If he would only read his earlier chapters regarding the Croatian commitment to family, friendships and their respect for human life and compare those aspects with American culture he might just stumble on the real answers to his own question: Why is there more violence in America and why is Croatia a safer place to live?  Those many differences that he found both funny and endearing in Croatian culture are the very reasons why it is safer to walk down the streets of any major Croatian city than one in America.With that one exception, I would strongly recommend the book to anyone who wants to get a fresh view of not only the Croatian culture, but a fresh look at their own non-Croat culture.  It is clear that Cody Brown has developed both a love and understanding of his adopted country.

    great intro to Croatia
  

*by C***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 31, 2022*

Our family will arrive in Croatia tomorrow for a 1 day vacation. I read 2 books in preparation. file a War and this one. One heavy and sad about the war, and this one more light-hearted yet still serious about what it is like as an American to adjust to living there. We have also been expats in another country and the author describes the inner conflict perfectly about what is it like to live abroad. Excellent book!!
