Some cultures are very gregarious and lively. They like loud music, speak to each other loudly, etc.
Which cultures have you found to be more reserved? Not necessarily cold or rude, just not as loud in public?

My parents were Danish immigrants to the states, we left when I was 3. It’s a pleasant culture shock now when I return. A sense of holding in developmental terms. No need to shout to be heard. In Copenhagen there are more bikes than cars. I lived in San Francisco for years till I moved back to Europe. The 38 Geary Bus was so loud it would shake my windows out near Point Lobos. Why they never bought MAN or Mercedes is beyond me. Americans put up with incredible Noise Pollution.
