>Bill Bryson and his wife are a very interesting marriage. This couple
>is from different cultures, countries, even continents. Also they

>sensible British woman. In spite of all this differences, they are
>together. They try to accept and tolerate each other.
>The situation that Bill Bryson has described in his
>essay is a dispute about food. The good husband arrived to his wife's
>country and he had to start eating specialities of Britain. But it did
>not taste like junk food which he used to love. That type of food might mean only
>one for his wife-death. It was a main problem. She did not command
>anything to him. She allowed him to eat everything he wanted. That
>was very smart. She knew, that every ban was only a temptation. He
>was pleased, also he respected her and she knew what she wanted to do.
>His wife used a clever compromise. In time, he started to understand what is good
>for him. She was absolutely right. He rejected unhealthy food and it
>was his own choice.
>That situation was quite funny for both of them.Nowadays, they know each other
>and daily life shows lots of diffrences between their cultures. The
>most important is that they can solve barriers in a funny way, and
>that's why I think, they live in a good relationship.
