Hi European here.

I always heard America is pretty competitive and that the people are very direct/speak their mind.

I’m quite the sensitive person, so I was wondering if it could be hard for me if I would ever go to America and if I needed to become more “tough”.

And would someone like me even be welcomed or would I be rejected?

    Ah the first time you drive past a herd of elk.

    Absolutely pants shitting fear. Like primal dread.

      I worked in Yellowstone for a season.

      The elk had their babies during that time.

      Trying to get from one of the employee dorms to the employee bar, and we got pushed off course by a mama elk.

      We wound up on the employee cafeteria loading dock, as elk can’t (or won’t?) climb stairs.

      We had to get rescued by park rangers.
