Top 3 biggest surprises to Jake (that I had totally forgotten was surprising to me):
1) Women sitting in the backseats. The backseat left hand side behind the driver’s seat is a place of honor and you’ll often see women and their babies sitting in the backseat with the husbands driving in the front.
2) Men looking at cartoon porn in the morning before work, there is a surprising number of guys in convenience stores, getting their morning boost before heading off to work. If I saw anyone that I worked with there…well I haven’t.
3) The minimalist amount of water (shotglass size) that we get served in restaurants, which has led me to carry around my Nalgene bottle, wherever I go, if I even leave my apartment, this bottle comes with me. I am constantly thirsty here.
