Such conversation is only natural – different cultures are often amazed or even bemused by the way others view the world. It has always happened, and in the same way that people in America might talk about the customs and traditions in Africa, people in Oceania might talk about the way things happen in America. It is completely understandable, if only because these differences and discrepancies only lead to a better understanding of one’s own culture.
