Lost in Transportation

Richard from British Columbia, Canada has British and New Zealand passports and is now working in Malta for a year or two. From Lost in Transportation:

..Maybe it's just because they care more about food here and want to infuse the noodles with more flavouring or something. Even the local workman's cafe offers dishes like smoked salmon penne and the icecream is divine (which is a little strange, since I doubt there's enough grass on Malta to support even one cow). I still haven't tried rabbit yet, so that's another thing to look forward to.

I have discovered why Mediterranian people tend to promenade - a much slower and more deliberate action than just walking. If you try walking in the Anglophone way then you get a sweaty back, almost no matter how short the walk is. The Anglophone way is walking like you're in a hurry to get where you are going, even if you aren't going anywhere. That said, the concept of walking without having anywhere to go is also fairly foreign to us Saxons...
