5 Things that Confuse Me About Life in Canada | Culture Shock

In noticed some differences between Canada and Europe and some confuse me. I don’t understand why things are the way they are here in Canada. Today I highlight the 5 things that confuse me here. I know comparisons can somehow trigger a defensive behaviour and I hope that these points shouldn’t be taking too serious. Just minor things that I recognized in my day to day life here.
We have everything around numbers from measuring distances to weight and counting. DIdn’t know before that it will be so complicated. I also confused some funny situations here for example at the barber shop when everyone is speaking in different sizes.
I encountered some things in the bed and bathroom that I find confusing and somehow less convenient. Could be that I am missing a point here or that my priorities while showering or sleeping are just different from the Canadian way.
I end with speaking about recycling and taxes. Even Canadians that I spoke to couldn’t really see why things are not less complicated in these areas.
If you are also new to Canada let me know differences you noticed. I am very curious to learn more and understand why things are the way they are.

I found it quite helpful to know how great YouTube videos were made so I wanted to share what equipment I use. Perhaps I can also inspire someone to start her/his own channel.
