What are some differences between North America and South America?
Stay on top of the market.
The things I'm about to write down only apply in general cases ;)
- Metric system vs. Imperial system
- In most S.A. contries it is still more important to work than to study. Most of young people work and study at the same time (and not 4 hours per day as american teenagers, but the 48 mandatory hours per week)
- Having a car is expensive, and usually there is only one car by family (in the US is more common to have 1 car per person).
- We use motorcycles a looooooottt!!! There are a lot everywhere and, at least in Colombia, you get the licence just with buying it (yeah, driving here sucks because of the amount of motorbikes). And distance between cars is less than a meter.
- Taxis are cheap. Except in Brasil and Chile maybe, but in general they are too affordable (an expensive fare would be less than 10 dollars).
- Stuff prices have the taxes already include. That was something that shocked me in Miami, when something that had a label of 15 dollars result in 16.50 at the register.
- You don't tip in S.A. (I find that extremely unjust). As I say, this are general cases, because in capital cities tipping is starting to have some relevance. However, it stays voluntary and people don't use to do it if they had a regular service. Also, at least in my country, this was a polemic some years ago because some, not all, restaurants were paying waiters salary out of this "voluntary tipping".
- Which leads me to the next issue: Corruption, corruption everywhere. Nevertheless, South America is soooo rich on natural resources than even with all those crookeds, we aren't starving yet.
- Cleanliness. Except for NYC, cities in US -and I'm guessing Canada as well- are gleaming. South America's street are filled with litter and waste management is inefficient. I would say Uruguay is a little different.
- People does like shopping in S.A. but not as much as Americans do!

Details: “I know it varies from countries and all that kind of stuff, but I'm looking at anything. Culture, schools, etc, just like there are differences in Europe vs Asia.
For example, long summer vacations are a very North American thing.”
There’s, in general, no general rule, despite you can find some things in common.
Long summer vacations are common thing in South America. (Sorry, not exclusive to US.) During my childhood in Argentina, we had summer vacations from First December days till mid-March. (A
I think a lot of differences come from the weather. Here in brazil is really hot. I live in a beach city and you can see santas with flower t-shirts and surf boards everywhere. We have a lot of fresh fruits. Along the week we have these markets on streets like little tends full of natural stuff. They are certified by the gov and have the places pre-determinated.
Here we also drink fresh cocconut water and saw these days that in US they have bottled egg and that was so strange. Im just so used to really fresh stuff and when I think North America I think US and I think fast food.
I know its a superficial assumption but i have never been to north america unfortunally
