In today’s video, I’m sharing a very awkward mistake I made when I first came to the U.S. 😅Back in college, I showed up to an American friend’s party 10 minutes early… and let’s just say it didn’t go as planned.Apparently arriving late is the polite thing here?! 🤯I ended up sitting alone on the couch until everyone else arrived...so awkward! 🙈Is this “arrive late” rule only in the U.S.? 🤔Watch to the end and tell me what party customs are like in your country! 🌍 _ How to Become an EJS Member[💻Computer] 1.
