When I first started to learn Spanish at the age of 12,I knew I would want to live in Spain as an adult.Something drew me here,powerfully.I pursued a Spanish degree and spent my third year studying in Spain.
At first,the difference in working culture really struck me.People work very long a day — usually from 9：00 am to 7：00 pm.But they'll always take time for a decent lunch break or to enjoy a coffee at a café.There’s none of that miserable business of stuffing a sandwich at your desk at 1：00 pm as in Britain.
I have also found it difficult to get used to the late nights.People are out at restaurants with their kids at 11：00 pm,and top-rating television programmes are on at 1：00 am.It is a sleepless nation,but they have got used to it from a young age.Most foreign people,of course,are in a daze for the first few months.I still drop off at 11:00 pm,when the night's just getting started.
Spanish guys are much more confident than the British.They’ll chat you up,they're outspoken and they go after what they want.They say the macho (大男子气的) culture has changed a lot.You can see this in the ads for family violence hotlines (热线) on Spanish television.Spain has a horrible record for it,but when I was here in 2009,it wasn't talked about.There’s a sense that the nation is growing up when it comes to gender politics.
The Spanish can't make a decent cup of tea,and I miss my friends and family,but that's it.I enjoy my life here very much.

当我12岁的时候第一次开始学西班牙语的时候,我就知道我将来成年后想要住在西班牙.有什么东西强有力地拉我到这儿来.我获得了一个西班牙语学位,并且第三年在西班牙学习.
一开始,工作文化上的差异真的打击了我.大家一天工作非常长时间——通常要从早上9点到晚上7点.但是他们总是腾出时间来好好吃午饭或者在咖啡馆喝一杯咖啡.根本不可能像在英国那样下午1点在办公桌上往嘴里塞一个汉堡.
我还很难习惯那里的夜生活.深夜11点还有人带着孩子在外面餐馆里,而且收视率最高的电视节目是在凌晨1点播放.这是一个无眠的国家,但是他们从很小的时候就习惯了这样的生活.当然,大多数外国人在开始几个月里都很迷茫.我还是11点就睡,那时夜生活才刚开始.
西班牙人比英国人更有信心.他们和你聊天,说话直白,追求想要的东西.他们说大男子文化已经有了很大变化.这可以在西班牙电视中的家庭暴力热线广告里看出来.感觉得到当谈及性别政治时这个国家在成长.
西班牙人沏不好茶,我想念我的朋友和家人,但是就是这样.我非常享受这里的生活.
