1. There are no leash laws here. Dogs roam about the streets, often meters (not yards) away from their masters, but they're always well-behaved. Another marvel of the European culture.2. Light switches are really wide, probably four times as wide as the switches in the States.
3. Tipping waiters isn't customary. I always feel badly for them, but apparently they get paid normal wages that aren't based on tips.
4. Soda bottles come in weird shapes. Coke bottles are long and shaped sort of like an hour glass. I wonder what the marketing scheme behind that is?
Can't think of anything else off the top of my head. My first day of classes was fine; not much to report on. Should be an interesting semester, not too challenging.
(In case you haven't figured it out yet, these pictures posted are ones from my camera.
you would comment on the marketing techniques of Coke in Europe.

Hey Zet- I found your blog from the FB, should be interesting to read about your travels. You're not missing a whole lot at UW. You could potentially be missing the greatest rise from the bottom story in basketball though- they just might make the tourney yet!
ReplyDeleteHope you're doing well bud- stay safe
