Thoreau considers the Canadian woodchopper to be his best company and it seems as though this can be attributed to the simple and content lifestyle this man leads, even using phrases such as “‘No, I like it well enough’”, (Thoreau, 92) when responding to Thoreau. A response of this accessible form almost stupefies Thoreau, even resulting in his referring to the Canadian as a “metaphysical puzzle” (94).

By sharing Day of the Dead activities in his family’s home, in the marketplace, and in a cemetery, I have observed that Mexicans, unlike…

By visiting multiple castles, diving headfirst into traditional foods (aside from blood pudding, my fear of which I have yet to overcome), speaking to locals, and trekking all over the different hills and plains, I got a broad sense of Ireland’s culture.
