From Spain to the US: A Spanish Expat's Hilarious Take on Cultural Differences
Life in the US vs. Spain: A Spanish Expat Shares Her Experiences A Spanish woman, Mariona Falomi Silla, recently shared her experiences adjusting to life in the United States after moving from Spain. In a short video, she highlights several key differences, offering a humorous yet insightful perspective on cultural contrasts. One striking difference lies in laundry habits. "I used to line-dry my clothes in Spain," Mariona explains, "but here, everyone uses a dryer. In fact, I don't even think I've seen clothespins in any store here!" This simple observation reveals a significant shift in everyday routines. The cost of living also plays a significant role. Mariona notes the stark contrast in coffee prices: "In Spain, I could get my daily coffee for one or two euros. Here, it's at least five dollars." This exemplifies the economic adjustments expats often face. Beyond the practical, Mariona touches on safety and transportation. She mentions that walking home alone after a night out is unthinkable in her current US location, unlike her experience in Spain. This highlights a critical aspect of adapting to a new environment. Mariona's video offers a relatable glimpse into the challenges and adjustments of living abroad, reminding us of the subtle yet significant differences that shape our daily lives.
