对于生活在国外的英国人来说，你经历过哪些文化冲击？
正文翻译
I live in South Korea and my biggest shocks were:
-all services are done very quickly (groceries are delivered the next day)
-no one adds milk to their tea or coffee (also barely anyone here drinks tea)
-eating out of the same bowl of soup or stew with friends
-slippers in the bathroom
-90% of bread here is all sweet. Bakeries just sell pastries
-awful driving
-pickled vegetables served alongside most western dishes
-almost no obese people
-room salons of all varieties ( hostess bars where you drink crappy whisky, sing karaoke and have sex with prostitutes)
-rarely every any bar brawls or drunken altercations, people are way more sensible when drunk than we are
-nowhere to buy deodorant... seriously...
我住在韩国，我最大的冲击是：
所有的服务都完成得很快(杂货第二天就能送到)
没人在茶或咖啡中加牛奶（也很少有人喝茶）
与朋友吃同一碗汤或炖菜
拖鞋放在浴室里
90%的面包是甜的。面包店只卖糕点
乱开车
腌菜与大多数西餐一起供应
几乎没有肥胖的人
各种各样的房间沙龙（在舞女酒吧喝劣质威士忌，唱卡拉ok和嫖）
很少发生酒吧斗殴或酒后争吵，人们喝醉时比我们理智
没有地方买除臭剂…真的…

Denmark: When you arrive at a big gathering or a party, you shake hands with all the guests, even the ones you don’t know. Sometimes it sucks being the last one to arrive cause there’s so many hands to shake.
丹麦：当你来到一个大型聚会或派对时，你要和所有客人握手，甚至是你不认识的客人。有时候，最后一个到的人会很糟糕，因为要和很多人握手。

I'm not a brit, but the lack of deodorant in Korea threw me for a loop when my 10 day work trip stretched into 30 and my stick ran out. I needed to buy more. I walked all over Lotte trying to find some.
我不是英国人，但韩国没有除臭剂让我十分诧异。我10天的工作行程延长到30天，当我的用完时，我陷入了困境。我需要买更多。我逛遍了乐天试图找到一些。

I think the deodorant thing is because Asians naturally sweat way less than other people do I could be wrong and fell for some kind of joke tho
我觉得除臭剂的问题是因为亚洲人天生出的汗要比其他人少，但我也可能是错的。

Philippines (Manila).
Obviously there are usually exceptions to some of these points.
Climate:
Oppressive, humid heat almost all the time.
Typhoons, thunderstorms and rain for nearly 5 months in a row during monsoon.
Don't forget about the volcanoes in every direction and earthquakes are possible.
Early mornings and the evenings can be pleasant for sitting outside with a drink but mostly it's just too hot all the time.
在菲律宾马尼拉:
这些观点中的一些可能是有例外的。
气候：
总是闷热潮湿。
在季候风期间，台风、雷暴及下雨会持续近5个月。
别忘了到处都有火山，还可能发生地震。
清晨和傍晚坐在外面喝一杯很惬意，但大部分时间都太热了。

People:
Friendlier than the average Brit for sure.
Non-aggressive. Never seen any hoodlum or roadman types here.
If you're white. Prepare to be seen as a walking wallet and for scammers and gold diggers to suddenly appear everywhere.
Most foreigners are retired old white men especially from America and Australia with 19yr old 'girlfriends' who spend their days at the pubs.
My Polish friend visited once, turned on his Tinder and had 100+ matches within an hour.
人：
当然比普通英国人更友好。
不咄咄逼人。从未见过流氓混混。
如果你是白人，准备好被视为行走的钱包，骗子和淘金者会突然出现在你面前。
大多数外国人都是退休的老白男，尤其是来自美国和澳大利亚的，他们有19岁的“女朋友”，整天泡在酒吧里。
我的波兰朋友来过一次，打开他的Tinder【交友APP】，一小时内就有100多匹配。

Place
Huge wealth divide. Seems to be very little between abject poverty stricken slums or guarded gated communities.
The slums are everywhere and hard to deal with if you're not used to seeing such things.
Guns everywhere. Every shop has a guard armed with a rifle and every mall entrance has armed guards frisking you and metal detectors.
Everything is a franchise. Prepare to see every business repeated 3 times in every mall.
Terrible supermarkets. Flies all over the meat, poor hygiene and an overpriced and poor sextion.
For a country which exports so many bananas they keep none of the good ones for themselves.
Vegetables are extremely expensive since they only grow in the highland regions of the country.
Spirits are cheaper but wine is more expensive.
Incompetance in service constantly. If something in your house breaks, forget being able to find anyone who has the skill to fix it.
Cash is king. You'll never be able to spend or give away all the worthless coins you end up with at the end of the day.
Usually fast and convenient food deliveries. Many restaurants to choose from. Much bigger sextions than almost anywhere in the UK.
Indian food in the UK is miles better.
Great Spa, Massage and Salon options at amazing prices.
地方：
巨大的财富鸿沟。似乎不是贫民窟就是有警卫把守的社区。
贫民窟到处都是，如果你不习惯看到这样的事情，就很难适应。
到处都是枪。所有商店都有持步枪的警卫，所有商场入口都有武装警卫搜查和金属探测器。
所有东西都是特许经营的。准备好在所有商场看到所有项业务重复3次。
糟糕的超市。肉上都是苍蝇，卫生条件差，价格高，选择少。
对于一个出口很多香蕉的国家来说，他们自己却没有留下好的香蕉。
蔬菜非常贵，因为只生长在这个国家的高地地区。
烈酒很便宜，但葡萄酒很贵。
经常不专心服务。如果你家里的东西坏了，别想找有能力修理的人了。
现金很重要。到头来，毫无价值的硬币都花不出去。
食物外卖很快很方便。有很多餐馆可供选择，几乎比英国所有地方都多。
英国的印度菜比这里的要好几条街。
水疗、按摩和沙龙的价格很便宜。

Transport:
Worst traffic I've experienced anywhere.
Terrible public transport.
Forget walking anywhere. Even if you can stand the heat, footpaths are sketchy, limited and different districts of the city aren't properly connected.
No lane discipline and endless honking from everyone all the time.
Buses rule the road and WILL cut you off.
Motorbikes swerving in and out of lanes with no thought to danger.
Beggars at every red light.
Random obstacles in the road and poor lighting at night if any.
Drunk driving is very common and police typically just take bribes if they catch anyone.
Every car is a Ford SUV or Toyota Vios (small sedan).
交通：
是我经历过的最糟糕的交通。
公共交通很糟糕。
别步行了吧。即使你能忍受酷热，人行道也很烂、又少、城市不同区域也没有适当的连接在一起。
没有车道纪律，所有人都没完没了地按喇叭。
公共汽车统治了公路，会把你挡住。
摩托车在车道上急转弯，根本不考虑危险。
每个红灯都有乞丐。
路上很多障碍物，夜间照明不良——如果有的话。
酒后驾车很普遍，如果警察抓到人，通常也是索贿。
每辆车都是福特SUV或丰田Vios。

Vietnam
-Crazy, crazy driving
-the lowest rate of obesity in the world. (i don't remember the last time i saw an overweight person)
-no queuing for anything
-most things need 'coffee money' (bribes) to get done
-almost all police are corrupt
-sitting on the floor to prepare and eat food
-huge fear of the sun and of getting a tan. Almost all cosmetic products are 'whitening'
-an almost hatred of dark skin
-no council tax, road tax, alcohol tax, low prices (i realise how overcharged for everything we are in the UK)
-manners are very American/British
-an acceptance of noise way above that any British person would tolerate
-people sleeping in the office for up to an hour each lunchtime, even if it's super busy. The Vietnamese can sleep anywhere
-bread is sweet and typically very overpriced
-milk is all UHT, fresh milk very rare and expensive
-huge amount of vegetables and fruit with each meal. Very healthy diets
-having an app on my phone where i can literally order anything from anywhere, day or night, delivered by a guy on a bike within 20 mins or so for about 20p. Using the same app to get a car/bike within a minute to almost anywhere. It's like UBER but 1000000x cheaper and better...
越南：
司机开车很疯狂。
世界上最低的肥胖率。（最后一次见到胖子是什么时候我都不记得了）
做什么都不排队
大多数事情都需要“咖啡钱”（贿赂）才能完成
几乎所有警察都是腐败的
准备食物和进餐都坐在地板上
非常害怕太阳，害怕被晒黑。几乎所有的化妆品都是为了“变白”
对黑色皮肤深恶痛绝
没有市政税、道路税、酒精税，物价低（让我意识到我们在英国的一切收费都过高）
礼仪非常美国、英国化
对噪音的接受程度远远超过英国人所能容忍的程度
人们每天午餐后都要在办公室睡上一个小时，哪怕工作非常忙。越南人可以在任何地方睡觉
面包是甜的，通常价格很高
牛奶都是经过高温灭菌的，鲜奶非常稀有而且昂贵
每餐都有大量蔬菜和水果。饮食非常健康
我的手机上有一个应用程序，可以从任何地方订购任何东西，无论是白天还是晚上，快递小哥能在20分钟内送到，价格在20便士左右。用同一个应用程序可以快速的获得一辆汽车或自行车，几乎可以去任何地方。和优步差不多，但更便宜、更好10万倍。

Netherlands
More bikes than people as you know
Cars drive like snails and always give way
Conversely bicycles never give way and observe no road signs or laws, if you don't move you'll get hit
Hugely techno driven culture, big techno parties all across the city every weekend
Same goes for festivals
Basically no interesting local meals or recipes
Everyone drinks small 25cl beers
Everyone walks infront of you or across you, no giving way
'me first' attitude towards queuing and in general
Big distaste for tourists (in Amsterdam at least)
Extraordinarily expensive for some things like fast food and meat
People have a general distaste for their own language and even dissuade against learning it
荷兰：
你知道的，自行车比人还多
开车如蜗牛爬，总是要让路
相反，自行车从不让路，也不遵守任何路标或法律，如果你不让开，就会被撞倒
浓厚的techno音乐文化，每周末城市里各地都会有大型techno派对。节日也是如此。
当地基本没有有趣的食物或食谱
所有人都是喝250毫升的小瓶啤酒
所有人都从你面前走过或穿过你，不给你让路
排队的态度和总体态度是“我优先”
对游客很厌恶（至少在阿姆斯特丹是这样）
有些东西比如快餐和肉非常贵
很多东西又非常便宜，超市经常打折
人们普遍不喜欢自己的语言，甚至不愿意学它
荷兰人相互说英语或英语、荷兰语混用

荷兰人相互说英语或英语、荷兰语混用
Dutch people speaking English or hybrid English/Dutch to each other
Complain more about the weather and avoid the rain more than the English
Basically no homeless (at least visible)
Don't understand sarcasm
Direct to the point of causing offense, and totally remorseless about it
Very cheap and all about supermarket discounts
Huge cinema fans
Drink their coffee at home, don't bother with cafés so much
Huge cheesey local music culture for 'schlager' music
Entire country sinking into the earth and built on sand, constant maintenance needed and roads resurfaced yearly sometimes or else they collapse from the moving sand (not all areas are like this but a great amount)
All Amsterdam buildings are built on extremely tall wooden sticks called Piles (very surreal and worth checking out)
Big cheese producers, but extreme lack of cheese variety, mostly Edam style
Anglophiles and very into UK royal family (this really surprised me)
Great work life balance, not so much workaholics
I could continue! Also i see some of these aren't so much culture shock-ey but more interesting, all just my own opinions.
比英国人还爱抱怨天气，讨厌下雨
基本上没有无家可归者
不理解讽刺
性格很直接，到了会冒犯人的地步，完全没有改过的想法
很爱看电影
在家喝咖啡，不喜欢去咖啡馆
整个国家都建在沙土上，陷在泥土里，需要不断的维护，道路每年都要翻修，否则会因为沙土移动而坍塌（不全是这样，但数量很多）
阿姆斯特丹所有的建筑都建在非常高的木桩上（非常梦幻，值得一看）
他们是大型奶酪生产商，但奶酪品种非常少，大多是Edam风格
亲英，非常喜欢英国皇室(这真的让我很惊讶)
工作和生活很平衡，没有那么多工作狂
我还可以继续说下去！不过我觉得其中一些并没有太文化冲击，但很有趣，这些都只是我自己的观点。

Japan
It is extremely difficult to find public waste bins, yet you will struggle to find litter on the streets.
If you have tattoos, keep them hidden. Tattoos are strongly lixed to gang culture and some people will actively avoid you if you are seen to have them.
Don't eat the eggs, seriously. They are very likely to make you ill if you aren't used to them.
All bread is very sweet, tastes like Brioche. The Japanese love to fill bread with different flavours.
Corner shops or Combini as they are called in Japan, sell amazing food. Its always made fresh that day and is on the level of British restaurant food.
Fruit and vegetables are extremely expensive. For example, I once saw a single apple for sale for 8000 Yen, which is about £50.
Buying ingredients and cooking for yourself is much more expensive that it is in Britain. This is typically why you see most people go out to eat. The Japanese also see dinner as a time to socialise.
The biggest surprise was the way Westerners are viewed. There is a kind of xenophobia/ignorance in that respect. But otherwise, mostJapanese people are extremely polite and courteous.
日本：
很难找到公共垃圾箱，但在街上很难找到垃圾。
如果你有纹身，最好把它们盖住。纹身与帮派文化密切相关，如果有人看到你身上有纹身，他们会主动避开你。
说真的，不要吃鸡蛋。如果你不习惯，它们很可能会让你生病。
所有面包都很甜，吃起来像奶油蛋卷。日本人喜欢把面包做成不同的味道。
街角小店或日本叫做Combini的小店，出售让人惊叹的食物。当天的食物都是新鲜的，和英国餐馆的食物一样。
水果和蔬菜非常昂贵。比如，我曾经看到一个苹果卖8000日元，大约50英镑。
自己买食材然后自己煮比在英国贵得多。这就是大多数人出去吃饭的典型原因。日本人也把晚餐当做社交时间。
最令人惊讶的是对西方人的看法。有一种仇外心理。但除此之外，大多数日本人都非常有礼貌。

Moved from rural Scotland to Las Vegas US fairly recently.
Essentially everything is a culture shock especially moving from such a small place, the village I grew up in had less than 1000 people to a giant city.
Seeing casinos everywhere. Of course it's a Vegas speciality, but even supermarkets have gambling sections here. Even McCarran Airports has to have fruit machines right up until the gates.
Guns everywhere will never not be weird to me. You can just casually (hyperbolic of course but they're in Walmart) get them during your weekly grocery shop.
No public transportation or the ability to walk everywhere. This is a regional thing but my poor grandad keeps on asking if we're walking distance from a pub and I have to tell him we're not walking distance from anything. Buses are uncommon as well.
The country bumpkin in me wants me to put this one but people can be really mean. Meaner than I've ever experienced in the UK, even when I went to London or Glasgow. I've had some really shitty people already. My in laws tell me I need to harden up.
People comment on my accent way more. I have the ability to use my normal Scottish doric one and a Queens English one as I was raised in Cambridge. I use whichever one depending on the others ability to understand like I use the QE for people who don't have English as their first language for example.
Everything shocked me tbh and I just want a cuppa and some rain now. I moved during summer and 47° was unbareable and ill never complain about the UK summer ever again.
最近从苏格兰农村搬到了美国拉斯维加斯。
基本上，一切都是文化冲击，尤其是我长大的地方是农村，只有不到1000人，然后搬到一个大城市。
到处都能看到赌场。当然，这是拉斯维加斯的特色，但就连超市也有赌博区。即使是麦卡伦机场在登机口前都有水果机。
到处都有枪，这对我来说很奇怪。你可以在周常逛杂货店时随便买到（当然是夸张的，但在沃尔玛是真的）。
没有公共交通工具，也没办法步行。这是个区域性的问题，我可怜的爷爷一直在问我们有没有步行就能去的酒吧，我不得不告诉他我们步行哪都去不了。公共汽车也不常见。
我的乡巴佬出身让我不得不说，人们真的很刻薄。比我在英国经历过的都要刻薄，哪怕是伦敦或格拉斯哥。我遇到一些真的很差劲的人。我的姻亲告诉我，我需要坚强起来。
人们对我的口音评头论足。我有能力用普通的苏格兰多立克口音和皇家英语，因为我在剑桥长大的。人们能理解哪种我就用哪种口音，比如人们的第一语音不是英语，那我就会用皇家英语。
老实说，一切都让我震惊，我现在只想要一杯茶，下点雨，我是在夏天搬来的，47°的高温太难受了，我再也不抱怨英国的夏天了。

Moved from rural Scotland to Las Vegas US fairly recently.
Essentially everything is a culture shock especially moving from such a small place, the village I grew up in had less than 1000 people to a giant city.
Seeing casinos everywhere. Of course it's a Vegas speciality, but even supermarkets have gambling sections here. Even McCarran Airports has to have fruit machines right up until the gates.
Guns everywhere will never not be weird to me. You can just casually (hyperbolic of course but they're in Walmart) get them during your weekly grocery shop.
No public transportation or the ability to walk everywhere. This is a regional thing but my poor grandad keeps on asking if we're walking distance from a pub and I have to tell him we're not walking distance from anything. Buses are uncommon as well.
The country bumpkin in me wants me to put this one but people can be really mean. Meaner than I've ever experienced in the UK, even when I went to London or Glasgow. I've had some really shitty people already. My in laws tell me I need to harden up.
People comment on my accent way more. I have the ability to use my normal Scottish doric one and a Queens English one as I was raised in Cambridge. I use whichever one depending on the others ability to understand like I use the QE for people who don't have English as their first language for example.
Everything shocked me tbh and I just want a cuppa and some rain now. I moved during summer and 47° was unbareable and ill never complain about the UK summer ever again.

culturedindividual
When I lived in Paris, even though it's metropolitan, they had a strong sense and regard of their French culture. Unlike other countries, where they're excited to just experience UK nationals - there, they were proud of their French. So they would respect you if you speak French to them, and they hear your English accent, rather than you just asking them "can you speak English?".
From my experience, it's more classist and racist than the UK, and had overbearing bureaucracy. It tooks ages to open up a bank account there, even when the UK was in the EU. This bureaucracy makes it harder for immigrants to climb socioeconomically. So there's a lot of immigrants hanging around stations and selling things. As a black guy, I'm sure some people saw me as an African immigrant rather than a "British expat", and people were wary of me on the metros. The day I got back to London, and sat on the tube, a woman just came and sat in front of me and put her bag down on the floor. That wouldn't really happen in Paris.
University in Paris was also more like sixth form, rather than the American-esque escapade we have here. Most students still lived at home, and commuted, which was exemplified by the accommodations costs in Paris. It was mostly international students in the university halls.
当我住在巴黎时，虽然巴黎是大都市，但他们对自己的法国文化有着强烈的感知和尊重。不像其他国家，他们单是遇到英国公民就很兴奋，在法国，他们为自己的法语感到自豪。所以如果你和他们说法语，他们会尊重你，他们能听出你的英语口音，而不是你去问他们“你能说英语吗？”。
根据我的经验，法国的阶级主义和种族主义比英国更严重，还有专横的官僚主义。开设银行账户要花很长时间，哪怕是英国还在欧盟里的时候。这种官僚主义使得移民在社会经济上很难混。所以有很多移民在车站附近闲逛，卖东西。作为一个黑人，我相信有些人把我看作是非洲移民，而不是“英国侨民”，人们在地铁上对我很警惕。那天我回到伦敦，坐在地铁上，一个女人走过来坐在我前面，把她的包放在地板上。这种事在巴黎是不会发生的。
巴黎的大学更像是六年级，而不是像我们这里的那种美国式的叛逆。大多数学生仍然住在家里，通勤往返，巴黎的住宿成本很高。大学礼堂里大部分都是国际学生。

Darkondrago
Switzerland
Having to use a designated bin bag for general waste that was almost like £1 a bag
Everything being so expensive, mind, I was studying abroad and didn’t have a wage coming in. Meat was the worst offender and I had to live half-veggie while I was there
Preference of UHT milk which took me a while to get used to
I found customer assistants to be cold and not as friendly as in the UK
Train tickets costing an absolute bomb to go only like an hour
There is a bike tax on public transport and you have to get a pass to bring one on -Bureaucracy was slow and I kept getting bounced from place to place because everyone said different things and no one really knew where to send me to register as a foreigner
Had to pay more to get online banking and the only way I could get past 2FA was by using a physical calculator that gave me a pin every time I wanted to log in
I couldn’t ever eat out because it was too expensive. McDonald’s costs about double the UK price for a meal and my friend said a pizza set her back about £17 in a restaurant
They had an English section in their Coop supermarket, but prices were ridiculous
瑞士：
必须使用指定的垃圾袋来装普通垃圾，一个袋子几乎要1英镑。
所有的东西都很贵，我当时在留学，没有工资收入。肉是最夸张的，我在那里的时候只能吃半素的。
他们偏爱高温灭菌牛奶，我花了一段时间才习惯。
我发现客户助理很冷漠，不像英国的那么友好。
火车票贵上天，哪怕只是一个小时的车程。
公共交通有自行车税，你必须拿到通行证才能买到。官僚主义让他们做事很慢，我总是被踢来踢去，因为每个人都说不同的话，没有人知道我该去哪里登记成为外国人。
我必须付更多的钱才能获得网上银行服务，而通过2FA【登陆时的验证】的唯一方法就是使用实体计算器，每次我想登录时，它都会给我一个pin码。
我从来不出去吃饭，因为太贵了。在麦当劳吃一顿饭的价格是英国的两倍，我朋友说在餐厅吃一份披萨花了她大约17英镑。
他们的连锁超市里有一个英国区，但价格很离谱。

China:
Besides some of the more obvious:
· everyone drinking hot water - and being judged (more so by older people) for drinking cold water. I assume it’s a hang over from when water was boiled for safety.
· women showing so much leg, but no cleavage. Somehow it seems to be seen as distasteful to wear a low top, but wearing tiny skirts is absolutely normal and very common place. I would say this is a reverse of the U.K. (excluding on a night out, British women are more likely to wear a slightly low top than a very high skirt).
· As a guest at someone’s house, if you don’t like something don’t finish it. I once struggled through a pig’s ear out of British politeness and got given 2 more, which I also dutifully choked down before standing up for myself.
· also as a house guest (especially family) say you are full when you’ve still got lots of room left in your belly. Hosts can be insistent that you eat more. I frequently made the mistake of stuffing my face with delicious food to the point of bursting before voicing that I was full, only to be offered not just a wafer thin mint, but insistently told to eat another 2000 calories of food.
· Everyone has a smart phone in the big cities - not just the young. 90 year olds sit at the dinner table on their smartphones. No body in my immediate family over the age of 35 has one, so maybe we’re just a poor example.
· state school not starting till 7 years old.
· not saying please and thank you all the time to family/friends because it’s just inferred by you being their family/friend. Makes perfect sense, but I still can’t just say “give me a cup of coffee” to someone
· except for fancy restaurants, it’s perfectly acceptable to go buy drinks or even snacks at the corner store to enjoy with your meal.
中国：
除了一些更明显的问题外：
所有人都喝热水——喝凉水会被人说（尤其是老年人）。我猜这是以前为了安全而把水烧开，后来留下的习惯。
女人露很多大腿，但不露乳沟。不知道为什么，穿低胸上衣似乎会被人讨厌，但穿小裙子绝对是正常的，也非常普遍。我觉得这和英国相反(除了晚上外出，英国女人更倾向于穿低胸上衣，而不是非常高的裙子)。
在别人家做客时，如果你不喜欢某种菜，不要吃完。有一次，出于英国人的礼貌，我费力地和猪耳朵做斗争，结果又来两份，我也尽力地吃下去才不得不说出来。
还是做客时，如果你还没饱，最好说你饱了，因为主人可能会坚持要你多吃。我经常犯这样的错误：在我说我吃饱了之前，我面前塞满了美味的食物，能胀破人的程度，结果不是再来一点点，而是坚持告诉我再吃2000卡路里的食物。
在大城市里，所有人都有智能手机——不仅仅是年轻人。90岁的老人也坐在餐桌前玩智能手机。我的直系亲属中，35岁以上的人都没有，所以，也许我们不是合适的例子。
公立学校7岁才开始上学。
不要老是和家人或朋友说“请”和“谢谢”，这是因为你是他们的家人、朋友。这很有道理，但我还是无法直接对别人说“给我来一杯咖啡”。
除了高档餐厅外，在街角商店买饮料甚至零食是完全可以接受的。

Denmark.
Everyone speaks English, perfectly. They encourage you to learn Danish (lessons are free) but want to talk English with you.
Fantastic cycling infrastructure, so everyone cycles.
Cars MUST give way to bicycles. It’s a strange thing to get used to. I feel much safer riding.
They drink a lot. There are seasonal beers, super tasty. Stay away from the schnapps, it’s a trap.
Nudity. They’re very liberal and open with that one at the beaches.
Healthcare is superb. I was brought up thinking the NHS was the best in the world, unfortunately I can now really see the cuts and hardships they’re facing.
Very straight to the point.
Drive 5 minutes out of a city and you’re in the middle of nowhere
Everything is more expensive but in comparison to wages, it’s about the same.
Food is incredibly fresh and doesn’t last. Buy it and eat it in a day or two .
Anything official is ran very smoothly. Any interaction with the government is a breeze. It’s unexpected.
Danes absolutely do not and will not commute. 20 minute drive is a shock to them (it’s even tax deductible)
Childcare is SO cheap (75% subsidised)
Pastries everywhere. For everything.
If you lose your job, don’t worry. You get 100% of your pay for a year or until you find other employment.
It’s a wonderful place to live though. Very similar in many aspects, no real culture shock.
丹麦：
每个人都说英语，能说得很好。他们鼓励你学习丹麦语（课程是免费的），但还是想和你用英语对话。
非常棒的自行车基础设施，每个人都骑自行车。
汽车必须给自行车让路，这很奇怪，难以适应。不过我觉得骑车安全多了。
他们喝很多酒。这里有季节性的啤酒，非常好喝。离那些杜松子酒远点，那是圈套。
裸体。他们在海滩上对这种事很开放。
医疗质量高。我从小就认为他们的医疗系统是最好的，不幸的是，我现在可以看到他们面临着经费削减和困难。
性格非常直截。
开车出城五分钟，你就到了一个偏僻的地方
所有东西都贵，但是和工资相比也差不多。
食物非常新鲜，不会剩下。买下来，一两天内吃完。
和官方打交道很顺利。与政府互动很轻松。真是出乎意料。
丹麦人绝对不会通勤。20分钟车程都会让他们震惊。
托儿费用非常便宜(补贴75%)
到处都有糕点。
如果你失业了，不必担心。一年内你可以继续领全工资，或者直到你找到其他工作。
这是个非常适合居住的地方。在许多方面和英国很像，没有真正的文化冲击。
