tiny hotel rooms. Fees for every little thing imaginable. Cameras watching you at every corner. All taxis look like old bentleys. Crazy drivers. Crisp shop at every corner. Lots of tourists. Then again I've only been to London.

Crazy drivers? British drivers are very skilled, our driving tests are actually hard.

That's because there is a shit-ton of cars in a tiny country with skinny roads... so we have to learn well.

As stereotypes go though, crazy driving is usually more associated with the French the Indians and the Chinese. Although in my personal experience Spanish taxi drivers are insane. (admitedly taxi drivers the world over are generally mad, but all the Spanish ones who have driven me have been particularly agressive)
