People complaining about the rest of the world being culturally assimilated by America are right.

Starbucks and Disneyland are two examples of cheap gimmicks that try to pass off as culture.

San Francisco, though, has its own interesting places and are definitely worth seeing. I'm just about to be picked up to go to see a vineyard. I have five months to see the rest of the city anyway.</p> There’s a lot to be enjoyed about American culture, but you can get most of it from the TV in your room.

After just two weeks I felt a bit "off" when using my Japanese, like the pathway to my brain where it stores all the stuff was a little clogged or whatever. At the current rate of effort you're making to seek out Japanese stuff I don't think you'll have any long term decay issues.</p> You’re doing well if you still feel sharp after three weeks.
