Life in Spain
Life in Spain is very different from life in the USA. One of the big differences in the two countries is the food. And it’s not only what they eat but when and how much. The first meal of the day, breakfast, is very light in Spain. Spanish people don’t like to eat a big breakfast. In the States they usually have a big breakfast with eggs, toast, cereal and orange juice. But for lunch it’s common to have only a sandwich. Supper, which is the main meal of the day, is at 6 in the evening. For Spaniards the main meal is at 2 or 3 in the afternoon and they eat a lot. Spanish people have a light supper around 9 or 10 in the evening. At this time of the night people in the States are preparing to go to bed. But this is when the Spanish people go out. Spain is famous for its nightlife.
