OpenF2F Class Notes 24th November (Celeste)

Original

It is hard to distinguish western people for me. If they do not speak something I never known where are they from, because they seem have same appearance. Of course they have different colors of hair, eyes and skin, but I think they are living in every western countries. Especially there are a lot of countries in Europe, and they are close by each other. When I watch a soccer game , I need to check soccers’s names to know their nationalities. I think it is same problem to distinguish our Asian for western people.

It is hard to distinguish white people/Caucasians for me. If they do not say something I never know where they are from because they seem to have the same appearance. Of course they have different color hair, eyes and skin, but I think they could be from every western country. Especially because there are a lot of countries in Europe and they are close by each other. When I watch a soccer game, I need to check player’s names on the back of their uniforms to guess their nationalities. I think it is the same problem for Westerners to distinguish/tell the difference between Asians.
