- You have to pay for restrooms even if they aren’t so clean
- They both have a lot of chaotic dirt roads with very few traffic signs
- The water and electricity runs out occasionally (especially when you are in the shower) :)
- You have to bring toilet paper with you because the restrooms will probably not have any
- The service, labor, and food is less expensive compared to America
- Very few people have internet in their home
- Almost everything is made of cement! Little wood or brick in the construction of buildings
- They put salt on everything!
- You can’t drink the tap water - or lets say, you shouldn't...
- You can't trust street food because it will probably give you stomach problems
- Young children sell things on the street
- Very little personal space
- A lot of fresh fruit and vegetables for really cheap
- They don’t often use AC or at least they rarely have it in residential areas
- Everyone uses buses to get around the country because it is cheap and more or less reliable
