If YOU were there... You live in the North American Southwest about
1,000 years ago. You've been working in the fields for
several hours today. The maize crop looks good this
summer, and you are hoping for a successful harvest.
After finishing your work, you walk home. The opening
o your house is in a cliff wall 30 feet above a canyon
loor. You must use ladders to get to the opening.
Do you like the location of
your home? Why?

Currently, as of february 2016, an american traveling in france would be by the exchange rate. the weakness of the euro and the strength of the us dollar means that items in france cost less to an american than they otherwise would. of course, if this trend reverses and the us dollar weakens and the euro strengthens, such as was happening in early 2008, an american traveling in france would have an adverse experience because items would cost relatively more.
