Farenheit to Celsius
24 Hr time
Different electrical plugs
Different cell phone company
Today my host mom and I set out to find electrical plug converters because the ones I had apparently only work in England, thanks Dad. We went to 5 electronic stores and 1 travel store. We finally found an electronic store which sold converters for England to Spain. Success! So now everytime I plug something in it looks like this below.
The rest of the day I spent with my host sister and her 10 billion neighborhood friends who were all eager to teach me Spanish in return for me teaching them English. People in Spain don't believe people in USA know what prosciutto is.
The technological problems are the easy ones. Anyway those little challenges build problem solving skills. Sometimes you have to figure out how to fit a square peg in a round hole. Its just a game. So did you get a new sim card?
ReplyDeleteYou would be much more credible if you could spell prociutto correctly, but that's Italian. To be fair, you are not an average American, you have sophisticated culinary tastes, and most Americans don't know what prociutto is. Have they offered their version, jamon crudo?
Oops, its "prosciutto" and jamon serrano.
ReplyDeleteFine, don't be my friend.
