I was looking for foreigner's trip reports about my country and found Winston's journals from his first trip in 2002. It really interesting and Winston has a talent as writer for sure. Now, through Google, I found this site and learned about other Winston's trips and journal.
Thank you. Boris.

I love this website because it does tell the truth about living in America and living abroad. I lived in Japan and Germany, both countries are exactly as Winston describes here. Women in Europe are much better toward men than the women here, especially in California. Personally, I loved living and dating in Germany. Japan was okay also, way better than the Bay area.

I'm an immigrant. I thought I was the only one that felt this way. Yet my different perspective allowed me to see that something was wrong, though I couldn't quite put my finger on it. Worse, people who are born in USA can't even see it because its like being inside of a moving car with no windows. You can't tell its really moving. Knowing that theres other people that feel this way makes me feel much better. Thanks.

If you think Bellingham is bad You should try living in the outskirts of Sedro Woolley. Can you say "Deliverance?" Going bad to my husbands homestate of California to thaw my frozen body, mind, and soul.

Hello Winston,
I stumbled upon your website and find truth to what you have said about American society-- antisocial, every person is there own island and emphasize on work, money and material possessions.
I read you went to CSUH and tried to meet girls on campus everyday for 2 years. You are a brave one. Initiating contact with people there is scary. I'm the shy type but I find it a bit easier to interact people outside of campus.
Hope you are happy and found what you sought after.

Found Emily Steinkamp for you! this post won't let me post her facebook page link.

I could really identify with your story. What's funny is I grew up to be quite wealthy, good looking, and am on TV - BUT YET I still have to work hard to get a girl's attention in America. It's just the way things are here. We are an anti-social lot in this country. I came across your article because I was strongly considering leaving my home and jumping ship. Sad, because I'll miss Walmart

This is the best stuff I have heard, and what I have been saying all along about western culture we need to put western culture back in order if this is even possible now because I only see it as getting more out of control.

Winston - I do admire that you sought 'love' elsewhere. However, I believe you lack the skill to communicate well. You look creepy and a pervert ... the romance abroad is really sex abroad. Wouldn't it be easier just to got a hooker in your town?
