Here are some little things that are different than in the US:
- Light switches
- Doorknobs
- Door mats in stores
- When you walk into a school or building, there's a bump where the door is when it's closed that I tripped over for weeks.
- Houses rarely have fitted carpets, just a few area carpets.
- The level of water in the toilet
- There are trees EVERYWHERE, I live in a suburb but it looks like it's in the woods because they don't cut down trees unless it's absolutely necessary (like exactly where a house would be built)
- When you buy produce at the grocery store, you but it on a scale, push whichever number you're supposed to for that food, and a price sticker comes out that you put on the bag with the food in it. Nifty.
- You have to pay for grocery bags, they're really sturdy though
- There is public transportation
I'm going to get ready to bike now, but I'll try to catch up more later tonight.
