Here's some fun things that are different here than in the states.

I have learned to drive on the other side of the road. At first I really had to think about what side of the road to be on. Now it comes more natural to me. I just have to remember the drive is always in the middle of the road.

We eat bread with or for EVERY meal – usually with Peanut Butter and Syrup or Jam on it. But the syrup is more like honey here.

The "ketchup" is runnier and tastes like tomato paste. Not that great.

They don't have "salad dressing" they have "salad cream".

I think almost all food has mayonnaise in it. (David and Amber you would hate it!)

If you go into a restaurant and you want water, you have to ask for tap water. They hardly ever put ice in anything.

They call fries "chips"

They call napkins "serviettes"

The chocolate bars here Cadbury chocolate. No Hershey's or Reese here.

The currency is called Rand and the exchange rate fluctuates daily - when we got here it was at 7.4 and now it is close to 10 (meaning 10R = $1)

They go to school year around. Most of the schools only go up to grade 10. They don't put the "th" on the end of the grade.  For example they will say i'm on grade 5.

The flush handle on the toilets is on the right side instead of the left

At each sink there is a separate faucet for hot and cold water. Doesn't work out so great honestly.

The toilet paper here is only one-ply and rough

Instead of saying "You're Welcome", they say "Pleasure"
