Is Africa Also ‘Relaxed but Alert’ Like South America?
I was watching a YouTube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_e9brvSIlM @ 21:00, where someone said that South America is similar to Africa in the sense that people are very social, relaxed and warm, but at the same time also very alert/on the ball — like they’re always aware of what’s happening around them and ready to react if needed.
It made me curious whether Africans here feel this description is accurate. Do you think African societies generally have this mix of being relaxed socially while also being very vigilant and aware?
The video compared this to parts of Europe, where people can seem more reserved and less “switched on” socially.
I’d love to hear perspectives from Africans, especially people who’ve also lived in South America, Europe, or North America.
