    • The pros are the food, the transit system, the prices, the, like, the the society as a whole, like, when it comes to, like, the homeless and the trash and everything, like, all of that, the whole work to live instead of live to work mentality and just the pace in general was just much more relaxed and just, like, you could just tell they had a good quality of life despite how relaxed they were.
    • Yes. I feel like people in other countries have somewhat of an advantage because they're not as big as the US, so they're able to be a little bit more traveled. Like, if you live in England or you you live in Europe somewhere, if you drive 2 to 4 hours, you're in a different country.
    • I one of our taxi drivers said to us they said in America, you work what was it? It was you live to work, and in other places outside of America, you work to live. So they are all about just, like, relaxing throughout their day.
