3. Smile less

It is rare for Chinese people to smile. Mostly, I just get stared at. In America, I am used to smiling at everyone: strangers on the street, shopkeepers, cashiers, etc. In China, however, this is not so common and I got tired of not having my friendliness returned so I just stopped. It is a weird transition when I go back to the US and I am expected to smile again.
