Multi-Cultural Americano

Hello. Ciao. Privet. Hola. Czecs. I hear the word "Hello" being said in all these languages atleast once throughout the day. When I think of American Culture, I think of a melting pot. In my opinion, I feel as if America doesn't have one distinct culture, yet it is made up of different values that make American's who we are.

Because my family is from Europe, we hold down those roots to the best of our ability. I guess you can call us Americanized Europeans.We speak Russian at home, we eat Russian food, we dress in European clothing.. but we speak English, eat "American Food", and play sports that only Americans know of. Our values are the same as most Americans. We cherish every single minute we have, and our main goal is to be able to reach that "American Dream" that everyone craves soo much. After all, that's why people immigrated to the United States; for a better life.
