    I am a quiet introvert from the US South, where yelling and SMILING LOUDLY SOMEHOW are mandatory at all times in public. I moved to the Pacific Northwest. It took a couple of months to let the mask fall as I observed how to do it and still be friendly… and goooood it is a relief to be able to drop that damn smile 😅 My face used to hurt after social gatherings.
