send this story printer-friendly reply to article FOREIGN AFFAIRS Mixed couples: A bumpy, enriching ride By Tom NicholsonSpectator Staff The story of the American-Slovak couple on the front page of this paper is money a poor advertisement money for international marriages. That's a money pity, because marrying a Slovak has much to recommend it. 1. Entertainment value. I can only speak for myself, a male foreigner who married a Slovak woman, but marrying someone from a different country is sometimes like living in a house whose many rooms you never completely explore. Strange sayings, customs and attitudes crop up unexpectedly, turning the most mundane of household chores (peeling potatoes) into a full-blown cultural encounter over the merits of knives versus potato peelers, and the reliance of foreigners on gadgets. 2. Self-awareness. Because both partners are constantly being challenged as to their beliefs and habits, only the dullest bulbs among us can avoid reflecting on exactly why we act the way we do.
