A spanish paradox

Postby markwilding » Fri Sep 25, 2009 2:27 pm

An observation
Why are the Spanish so relaxed? never rush to do anything? Until the moment they get into a car, then they want to get to their destination as quickly as humanly possible :?

I think it must be that they hate driving and want to get it over with as quickly as possible. Conversely, they love the paseo and take it very slowly ... :D

Hi,
Followed someone through town the other day at 15MPH, no traffic in front ,and everyone behind, not a single horn was sounded :D
All my best learning experiences start with a problem I need to solve.

I once worked with a Spanish guy who actually believed that the faster you drive on the N-340 the better as it means you aren't driving on it for as long because it can be a dangerous road! :shock:
