My name is Emily and I am from the United States of America. For a few months I will be an exchange student in Greece. I have been here for one and a half weeks, and so far I have learned a lot about this country. It’s so much different here then the United States because here we us almost 57% less electricity than we do in the United States. The people in Greece also spend 62.09% less money on healthcare. Even though the economy in the United States is bad, in Greece you would have a 3.24% better chance of being hired. The surprising fact is that even though you have a better chance of being hired, you would work .33% longer, and make 30.82% less money. There are 32.47% fewer babies, but a 17.26% lesser chance of dying in infancy. You would also be 66.67% less likely to have HIV/ Aids. the life expectancy is 1.56 years longer then it would be in the United States. As you can see, Greece and the United States of America is very different, and I hope I am able to learn more in the rest of my time here.
