SOME EVERY DAY DIFFERENCES BETWEEN SPAIN AND BELGIUM

I can't believe I've already been here for three weeks. 

I can't help but notice some small differences between my day a day here and in Spain. These are a few of them:

• Everyone is really polite here, even the younger children. For example, you have to say good morning to the driver when you get on the bus, and also say thank you and goodbye when you get off.

• There is a lot of respect to the teachers in general. When they arrive me must be standing behind our tables and we aren't allowed to sit down until they tell us to.
We aren't allowed to call them by their first names either.

• During classes we must ask permission to drink water or blow our nose.

• The dress code is really strict also, we aren't allowed to show our shoulders nor our legs. Wearing sport clothes during normal classes isn't permitted either.

• All of the meals are really early. Lunch is at 11:30 and we have dinner around 19:30.

• People here are used to the bus' irregular timetable. Some days it may arrive really early, but most of them come really really late.

Besides all of this, nothing really special has happened during these last weeks.
There was a party last Saturday in the town hall, and I went there with my fiends.

Here are some photos I took last week:
