when it comes to complaints, it is of course okay to complain if something is a legitimate problem, as here in sweden where I live, one of the few times we talk to strangers is if the public transport is a quarter of an hour late, take the opportunity to participate and talk to us. But don't complain that it's cold and dark in January or bright in June, it's your own fault if you didn't prepare yourself properly! And yes it helps to learn some simple polite phrases in the local language, making an effort arouses sympathy, if someone asked me where they can get Swedish meatballs without making an effort, I would point to the nearest Ikea, but if they make an effort, I would help them and show them the way to a decent restaurant that serves the real thing

Living in a 'Monument'you cando it in Røros, Norway. The town/town center is on Unesco World Heritage List and people work and live there, it's like living in a museum, it's awesome.🤩

Two way street. I worked in Yosemite National Park while in college and tourists from foreign countries can be very annoying as well. We aren't born knowing the customs of each individual country in the world and cataloging them all before a trip isn't reasonable. The best I can do is be polite, smile and try to not commit any obvious faux pauxs. If I happen to with some esoteric one, well, they're just have to deal with it.

Living in America and want to chance America-it feels a little bit of me: From Germany, living in Norway and absolutely love it, but some German habits are hart to break:for example Christmas food: I Must have the German marsipan, not the norwegian one. Or Christmas dinner, it's always the German food I make, even after 20 years. I think, it's somehow the same for people moving to America.
