What cultural differences we can find when you compare two
countries that are each at the other side of the world? First at all, it must be clear that Japan is a developed country and Colombia is in the process of development, having this we can discuss about cultural differences, for example, if you go to a restaurant in Japan is common to see people eating with chopsticks, or making a lot of noise (This is a way of saying that the food is delicious), on the other hand, in Colombia the people use a fork or a spoon, and never make noise. About clothing, we see that Japanese girls do not usually use necklines, instead, they can wear miniskirt or shorts, they see necklines as something vulgar, unlike, Colombia, that girls are not restricted by culture to wear whatever they want, this show us that Japanese still being conservatives. When we talk about punctuality the country that stands out is Japan, the are very punctual, they always arrive to the agreed time, not like in Colombia, the invitations are set an hour before it starts. To sum up, we can describe a lot of difference between those countries, after all these differences lie in the history, development, geographic location, religion and even the philosophy that resides in them; we are not saying that a country is better than the other cause each one has something good to highlight, that could be the restaurant etiquette, punctuality or whatever.
