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?

    My apartment in Manhattan was right above the avenue where all the parades start. In the summer there was a parade every weekend, and the music would wake me up at 6am when they started practicing. Puerto Rican day parade, Mexican, Irish, all the countries, with their music and dancing. All summer long.

    Then one day I slept till noon. I was surprised, “oh i guess no parade today.” I left for lunch later and turns out there *was a parade that day, but for one of the Nordic countries. I guess they celebrate calmly and quietly? 😅
