Langsom juletravlhed - Slow Christmas Bustle

Jeg er for 3. gang her (i Spanien) i julesæsonen, og jeg undrede mig over noget allerede sidst, da jeg var her: Man er høflig på gaden. Man drøner ikke afsted uden at tænke på sine omgivelser. Og støder man sammen, kommer der et 'perdón' med det samme. Selvom der er mange mennesker, bliver man ikke mast og puffet. Man tager sig tid. Jeg vil gerne stemme for mere af det derhjemme, så alt ikke bare bliver en glorificering af travhed. 


 I am for the 3rd time here (in Spain) during the Christmas season, and already last time, I wondered about something: People are polite, when they are walking in the street. They don't rush without thinking about their surroundings. And if you get bump into by someone, there is always a 'perdón'. Even though there are many people, you don't get squeezed or pushed. They take their time. I would vote for that at home, so not everything becomes a glorification of being busy.
