You know what happens when you move to a place where the customs are all different than what you are used to? It becomes natural and fitting (at least MOST things)

• When you are in line at the bank if you are pregnant, old, have an infant, are handicapped or last but not least, CRAZY, you get to go to the front of the line!

• Everyone kisses hello AND goodbye and the cheek

• People, for the most part, do not have hot water heaters in their homes or restaurants
