“Tranquila!” – “calm down!” This is the Spanish way of life in just one word. At the beginning, when I arrived, it was very strange and I needed time to calm down. Everything takes longer, for example going to the supermarket, getting money from the cash machine, waiting for the bus…
And do not forget the “Siesta”! Most of the stores are closed from 15 to 18 o´clock. It happened a few times that I was standing in front of closed shop doors and I wondered why.
Generally you can say that everything is later than in Austria. Spanish people wake up much later, have their lunch at 15 o´clock, dinner at 22 o´clock and I do not know what time they go to bed.
This way of life is very strange for me.
