• Anna: Hi Sofia, how are you.

• Sofia: Hi Ana, how was your trip, welcome to the United States.
• Anna: It was very good, I haven't seen you since you moved here, and tell me how is the country? Is it good?
• Sofia: Yes, it is very comfortable here, you are going to spend your vacation here very comfortably, until you got your visa and finally you could come to visit
me.
• Anna: yes, it was a bit complicated to get the visa, but it was a requirement to be able to come here, and how is life here, is it very different from Mexico?
• Sofia: It's different, the laws change a lot, some are a little strange, some are stranger than others, and others are stricter, the law is very strict here, and
anything you do wrong can be a crime, especially when you are a foreigner.
• Anna: Really? Wow, I didn't know that, I'm a little hungry, let's eat?
• Sofia: Sure, come on, there's a great restaurant nearby, just make sure you tip, it's frowned upon here not to tip at all, and even rude, since they are giving
us a service.
• Anna: Really? Wow, that's not how it was in Mexico, but that's okay, no problem, what other rules do you have?
• Sofia: Unlike in Mexico, do not honk the horn if you rent a car, and even less if there is traffic, as it is only used for emergencies, and if an officer sees you
you are committing a crime, do not try to touch or talk to children because they are very strict with cases of pedophilia and you can be confused by that, but
in the restaurant I will tell you more, come on.
• Anna: Wow, it is very strict in some things here, but yes, I will be very careful, thank you, sure, let's go to that restaurant, I'm already hungry, there you keep
telling me about their laws so I don't commit a crime, let's go.
• Sofia: Sure, but following all its rules it is an excellent country, many beautiful and touristic places to visit, I will take you there, but for now let's go to eat.
STORYBOARD
MAP OF THE COUNTRY
What do you need to visit that country
• Are you planning to travel to the United States or are you already
preparing your trip? Entering the U.S. as a tourist or residing temporarily
for business, work or studies means facing particular laws on the entry of
travelers and a rather expensive health system. For this reason, it is
necessary to process a series of documents before leaving and it is
advisable to take out travel insurance such as those of InterMundial that
cover high amounts of medical expenses, cancellation and COVID-19.
1° Visa: Depending on your nationality or the length and purpose of your trip to the United States, you may or may not need to be
issued a specific visa.

2° Passport : Depending on the type of permit or visa, one type of passport is valid for travel to the United States.

3° Travel insurance: Although the United States is a safe country for travelers, the most relevant incidents are related to medical
assistance in case of accident or illness, baggage problems and flight mishaps.

4° Credit card: It goes without saying that the U.S. currency is the U.S. dollar. Check the value of the dollar in relation to your
national currency before exchanging any money before leaving for the U.S. You will always need to have cash for small payments.

5° Vaccinations: There are no mandatory vaccinations for travel to the United States except for COVID.
6° Driving license: Another tip for your trip is the one that has to do with driving within the country. In the United
States, traffic regulations and traffic rules are not national and each state has its own laws.

7°Travelers' Registry: This registry of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation facilitates the contact and location
of travelers abroad by the Spanish authorities in case of emergency.
 Rules of etiquette
• Infringing on personal space: U.S.
citizens generally like to have their
own personal space, so not letting
them have it and trespassing on it
will make them very uncomfortable,
which can radically change the way
they interact with you.
Not tipping: It may not be
customary in your home country,
but in the U.S. not tipping is
considered a discourteous act and
a great offense. Although it is not
mandatory, it is customary to
leave 15-20% of the full amount
for the service received.
Interrupt the movement or flow
of other people: When it comes
to driving on the streets,
Americans tend to always drive
on the right side, so if you are in
a hurry to overtake other people
you can move to the left to pass
them, but move back to the right
side so as not to interrupt their
path.
Talking about politics, religion or
race: There are three topics that are
very sensitive for U.S. citizens and
that you should avoid. Avoid talking
about politics, religion or race, and
above all do not confront them with
the views that exist in your country.
Interacting with children you don't
know: In the United States, hugging or
touching a child in any way if you don't
know the child may make you look like a
pedophile. For this reason, avoid such
situations if you do not want to get into
trouble.
Not respecting their flags and
symbols: Questioning the
patriotism of the military or not
respecting the American flag or
symbols is considered a great
offense. For this reason, always
try to respect them and if you
disagree with something, be
aware of the person you are
talking to and know that they
will not be offended by it.

Honking the horn while driving: If

you have rented or purchased a
vehicle and are driving on U.S.
highways, be aware that honking the
horn while driving is frowned upon as
it will be considered bad manners,
unless you are doing so in an
emergency. For this reason, if you do
not have an emergency, be patient
and do not honk your horn.
