This week in class we looked at different cultures and how they do things differently.  We got to see a video of what other peoples houses looked like in some different countries.  Before watching the video, i knew houses in other cultures looked different from ours on the outside but i didn't really think about the inside.  It was a big surprise to me when the lady from Denmark said that with less stuff brings more happiness.  This seems like the complete opposite of what our culture tries to do.  We all need as many things as we can get our hands on.  Another thing that I found very interesting was the rooms in other homes.  The kids bedrooms in Denmark are very small.  Its not a place to always hide in, its only purpose is to sleep there.  Our bedrooms are big and messy.  We also use them to watch tv, go on the computer, or study.  We use our room to be alone whereas people in Denmark spend time with their families.  One other thing that really shocked me was that they have bathrooms with no doors on them.  This is completely against our culture.  We are all about privacy in our culture and no one would ever not have a door on their bathroom.  Looking at other cultures really interested me.
