Sometimes I feel that I’m becoming Swedish but maybe I’m just adopting Swedish behavioral stereotypes. For example, I realize that I am much less outgoing to strangers and people I don’t really know, I was before. But now that I actually interact with more Swedes, I realize that this stereotype is just like any other- based on some truth but mostly an outdated belief. So, I’m going to try to be more outgoing even at the cost of being ’that annoying, loud American.’
