"We Are The New Vintage"
Tags:
I grew up in the South (just outside of New Orleans) and have visited Augusta once or twice b/c my cousin moved there with her husband. Augusta is a lovely city and it's close to Atlanta so you'll have plenty to do. Things are rather slow-paced and laid-back. You'll likely be on base? I don't know if the culture there is different because there are people from so many areas there. Outside the base, just think typical Southern culture: gracious and kind to people, even strangers. That's the ideal, anyway. I know when I moved out to California I thought people were rather rude until I realized it was a culture thing. And I think some of my friends out here thought I was overly solicitous of their feelings b/c that's just how we Southerners are. We would rather go out of our way to avoid being rude than the opposite. Another thing you will notice is that Southerners tend to FEED people. Omg, in my family it was like a mortal sin NOT to take a second helping at the dinner table. Lol. One negative you might find, and I am deeply ashamed to say this is that the race barrier is still sometimes an issue down south. It gets better with each new generation, but sometimes prejudice is still there.
Just relax, be yourself and enjoy scenic Augusta. Don't worry too much about making social mistakes; it's honestly not that big of a deal.
