As an Australian living in America, I’ve come to realise it’s not the big cultural differences that stay with you… it’s the small, everyday habits.

In this episode, I talk through some of the little things Americans do that still catch me off guard — from sending mail from your own mailbox, to turning right on a red light, to traditions like trunk or treat.

They’re completely normal if you’ve grown up in the United States.
 But from an Australian perspective, they stand out in quiet, unexpected ways.

This is a reflection on everyday life in America — the subtle cultural differences between Australia and the US that you only really notice once you’re living inside them.

If you’ve ever lived overseas, or you’re curious about American culture through an Australian lens, this one will feel familiar.
