the house hunting shows are appealing and very popular...I am still puzzled about why they are such a hit...they are fun to watch...

I am not as into the redecorating shows....there was a show where two guys would pick things up from the garbage, make something new out of it, and then return it as a surprise to the folks who had thrown it out in the first place, that was a neat idea...I like seeing what people remake...

It's trueeeee, people will be in the coolest places on Earth and they want a US style house instead of taking the chance to live in the local culture. Cracks me up!

I do admit to being fascinated by the differences in bathrooms around the globe. Ha.
