Globalization is definitely something that I’ve noticed around where I live for a while. Ever since I was younger, I’ve always liked to go on little trips and such to different restaurants, stores, etc., and just kind of look around to find inspiration and enjoy different things. Throughout my life in Lancaster, I’ve definitely seen changes in my environment caused by globalization.
As I’ve grown up and changed, looking around feels much different then when I was younger, as I’ve began to think more about how the outside world is affecting my local community. Some stores or locations have been added, some new and some old, but a lot of them (especially restaurants and such), are of the chain variety. Some have closed, and some have been replaced. Some local locations have been opened, which represent different cultures around the globe, and I’ve been given opportunities to experience them without having to travel far and wide. Even some worldwide branded industries have been brought nearby, promoting new industries and companies.
