Going to a soccer game in Italy. When buying a ticket, they needed to know which team I was rooting for to determine where I could sit. Then, during the game, people were setting things on fire.
去意大利看足球賽。買票的時候他們需要知道我支持的是哪個隊，以便確定我能坐在哪裡。然後，在比賽期間人們正在放火燒東西。

I'm British and currently living in america, this guy was telling me about a big college football rivalry game and how where the two sets of fans meet, things can be a bit crazy. It turns out he meant that the chants they shout might slip in a cheeky swear word or something, because when I asked him if there's a fence between the fans he looked at me like I was crazy, and I had to explain that most games in Europe require fencing or lines of police to stop fans going at it and there's even charities set up because people stab fans from other teams and have even murdered them in the past.
我是英國人，現在住在美國，有人告訴我最近有一場大型的大學生足球對抗賽，兩個隊的球迷會碰面，事情可能會有點瘋狂。結果他說的“瘋狂”是，球迷們的吶喊聲中有時會夾雜著幾句髒話什麼的。因為當我問他在兩隊球迷之間有沒有護欄的時候，他看我的眼神好像我瘋了一樣。我不得不解釋說，在歐洲大多數球賽需要圍護欄或者警戒線來防止球迷打鬥。甚至還有專門為此設立的慈善機構，因為在過去人們可能刺傷其他球隊的球迷，甚至殺了他們。

Feeling proud of myself for eating late, like a local, at 21:00 in Lisbon only to walk in to a empty restaurant. By the time I’d finished eating at 22:00 the place was full.
我為自己吃得晚感到自豪，像當地人一樣，我在里斯本（葡萄牙首都），晚上9點的時候走進一家餐館還是空蕩蕩的。晚上10點我吃完東西的時候，餐館才坐滿了人。

Here in Germany it's more like 18-20.00, a normal, not Bar- or Snack/FastFood-like Restaurant will likely close at 22-23.00 and close the Kitchen about an hour or so earlier.
在德國這邊，晚餐差不多在晚上6點到8點。一般的餐館，不是酒吧或者小吃快餐這類的餐廳，可能會在晚上10點11點打烊，廚房會提前一個小時關閉的。

My American friends who visited The Netherlands: Completely surprised by our bicycle 'things':
a) so many bicycles -everywhere-
b) everybody riding without a helmet
c) so many different bicycles
幾個美國朋友來荷蘭找我玩，他們對我們的自行車生活感到非常驚訝：
1. 這麼多的自行車，到處都是
2. 每個人騎自行車都不戴頭盔
3. 各種各樣的自行車

every meal in Paris taking 3 hours.
I loved the culture and I'm all about eating a relaxing meal, but sometimes it was just like "wtf" when we were on a schedule and had to meet up with a tour group or had reservations for something.
在巴黎吃頓飯要3個小時！
我喜歡這種文化，我也喜歡吃飯的時候很放鬆，但是有時候這種文化太坑了。特別是有時候我們吃完還要趕時間去接待一個旅遊團，或者要預定餐廳位子。

drinking one beer with your lunch from time to time is not considered special at all in germany. Drinking >2 beers every day for lunch makes you an alcoholic.
在德國，午餐偶爾喝一杯啤酒是很正常的。超過兩杯才不行。

I lived in Germany for 8 years from 1992-2000 (Ages 4-12). I didn't realize it until I moved back to the states but there were recycling bins on EVERY street corner. It wasn't just a green bin then a trash can, it was a giant blue bin. One section for green glass, one for brown glass, one for clear glass, one for plastic, and one for paper.
Oh and going to a German school, students took public transit. There wasn't such a thing as a school bus.
從1992年到2000年我在德國住了8年。直到我13歲搬回美國之後，我才意識到每一個街角都有垃圾箱。不是一個綠桶，而是一個巨大的藍桶，裡面一格放綠色玻璃，一格放棕色玻璃，一格放透明玻璃，一格放塑料，一格放紙。
哦對了，在德國學生上學是坐公共交通工具去的，沒有校車之類的東西。

Scotland has midges, which are 1000x worse than mosquitoes.
蘇格蘭有一種叫蠓的吸血小昆蟲，比蚊子厲害1000倍。

1) I went to the Netherlands for a music festival over the summer last year. The night before I went to a show and met a Scottish guy who came over and said, “you look American”. I replied yes and he immediately started talking about American politics and the military. It was weird how he assumed I was completely knowledgeable about all upper level government doings.
去年夏天我去荷蘭參加一個音樂節。在音樂節的前一天晚上，我遇到了一個蘇格蘭人，他走過來對我說：“你看起來像美國人。”。我回答說是的，他立即開始談論美國的政治和軍事。奇怪的是，他怎麼就認定我對所有上層政府的所作所為都很瞭解呢。
2) The fact that there’s no AC. I didn’t realized it wasn’t standard and was melting in my hotel room.
沒有空調。我之前都不知道沒空調在那兒是很正常的。我在酒店房間熱得都快熔化了。
3) How uncommon asking for ice is. I’ve never gotten stranger looks when I would ask for a drink with some ice. One person at the festival had to confirm she understood me lol.
加冰是有多不正常啊。我絕對不會忘記當我要一杯加冰的飲料時其他人的表情。在音樂節上有個人還問我她是不是誤會我了。笑哭

Paying to use a public restroom. I get why though. Just a horrible feeling if you really had to go and you don't have any change.
上公共廁所要交錢。雖然我知道為什麼，但如果你真的很急又剛好沒零錢的話，那就太可怕了。

Every night in Spain, around 3 a.m. this MASSIVE fleet of street scrubbers, vacuum-mobiles, and water hoses appeared and cleaned the entire city for about an hour. It was like ~100 people every night just cleaning the city. The following morning, all of Salamanca was spotless. That shit was magical.
在西班牙，每天晚上，凌晨3點左右，差不多有100個環衛工人跟個龐大的艦隊一樣出現在街頭，對整個城市開始大約一個小時的清洗。第二天早上，整個薩拉曼卡一塵不染。
註釋：Salamanca薩拉曼卡，西班牙西部城市。

I was in italy and wanted to grab a bite and a beer for some lunch. I left the flat and I was flabbergasted to find the entire town was empty. Everything was closed, not even the neighborhood dogs were around!
我之前在意大利，午飯時想去吃點東西，喝點啤酒。當我離開公寓的時候，我驚呆了，整個城市是空的。所有店都關了，附近連條狗都沒看到！

In Italy there is virtually no threshold for how much distance should be left between a speeding car and any obstacles (including pedestrians) it is zooming past.
A bus driver will rush down a narrow cobblestone street with about a centimeter to spare between the sides of the bus and any parked cars, walls, ancient monuments, or playing children.
在意大利，一輛行駛的汽車在飛馳而過的時候和任何障礙物（包括行人）之間的距離幾乎沒有任何限制。
一個公交車司機會沿著一條鵝卵石街道衝下去，不管公交車兩邊與那條路上停放的汽車、牆壁、古代紀念碑或玩耍的孩子之間的距離是不是隻有大約一釐米。

At a pedestrian crossing in Italy if you approach cautiously and hesitate waiting for cars to slow down for you, you'll get nowhere, you have to just walk out there like you own it and then they stop, the scooters just drive around you. The locals know this and barely even look before crossing but it's scary as shit for tourists.
在穿過意大利的人行橫道時，如果你小心翼翼、猶猶豫豫地等著汽車為你減速，那你將哪兒也去不了。你必須理所當然地走過去，然後開車的人才會停下來，摩托車就會從你旁邊開過去。當地人知道這一點，他們在過馬路之前甚至都不看的，但對於遊客來說，這很嚇人。
