There are many differences between China and Western cultures, from overall lifestyle to individual demeanor. 


无论生活方式还是言谈举止,中西方文化都存在诸多差异。


The comic artist Tiny Eyes, aka Siyu, is chronicling them in her ongoing series of sequential art that highlights some of the things that she, as someone born and raised in Beijing, has experienced when communicating with people in the United States, France, and England. 


漫画家Tiny Eyes(又名曹思予)是个土生土长的北京姑娘,她用连载漫画的形式记录了自己和美国、法国、英国的朋友们交流时的经历。



Through simple line drawings and a biting wit, she illustrates the impressions that the different cultures have of one another and their idiosyncrasies.


寥寥几笔,又蕴含智慧,展现着不同文化的印象和特质。


Here are 10 differences in Siyu's comic.
