Some cultures are very gregarious and lively. They like loud music, speak to each other loudly, etc.
Which cultures have you found to be more reserved? Not necessarily cold or rude, just not as loud in public?

while were here … WHOS THE LOUDEST?
I’m nominating the greeks… everyone on their phones.
I was on a plane from athens and people still chatting.
One guy was face-timing loudly … AS THE PLANE WAS TAKING OFF. :)
Americans. And even the loudest but the entitlement.
Dominicans, with their damn music that has the same beat!!
Vietnamese. 90% of all conversations could easily been mistaken for a rage fueled shouting match
South Africans are a loud bunch
Indians by a distance.
All the Mediterraneans if not most of them, Southeast Asians and Brazilians. If Brazilians aren’t cheery then he’ll really has frozen over.
Honorary Mention: Californians.
American who lived in the Philippines here. Filipinos are louder than us.
Americans for me. When I was living in Paris, I actually started to get really annoyed with them. I would constantly wake up in the middle of the night from people yelling in the street. Always Americans. I can hear their voices from a million miles away.
I have a friend from Texas, and when he speaks, my ears hurt and start ringing because his voice is so loud. And that’s his normal speaking voice.
I swear we aren’t all like this and people just don’t notice the quiet Americans, but the loud ones are really loud. Went for drinks with another American in Europe and it was embarrassing walking around with him basically screaming in the middle of the night.
It seems to be pretty well-known everywhere I go that Americans just talk louder, even as a Canadian when I’ve gone to the states I’ve found it a bit jarring. Living in Japan now, encountering an American (unless they’ve lived here a while) feels like getting yelled at
I’m an American. I can confirm we are the worst. When I travel in Europe my ears and brain hurt when I hear the screechy loud American voices clashing against the environment as they walk by on the street or in a restaurant.
Americans that go to France are a special breed.
Speak for yourself. No one even guesses I’m American here, least of all when I’m speaking French. Hell, I’m from Texas too.
I’m Greek and can definitely confirm that 🤣. Them and every other Balkan and Mediterranean culture.
also Indians! the people, the country. so much noise and commotion. (not in a bad way, though i’m also used to it)
Greeks, Italians and Brazilians.
Latin Americans in general but Brazilians probably take the cake
greeks, americans and the spanish!
