I love you, my Readers, so I have to share this with you.<\/p>\n<p>And I love both countries equally, with their negatives and positives.<\/p>\n<p>I think that\u2019s an interesting insight into cultural differences and it may enlighten some of you who struggle with interracial relationships, cultural shocks, who moved abroad and are having a hard time accepting things there.<\/p>\n<p>Things will always be different in different places, and being different doesn\u2019t mean being worse.<\/p>\n<p>Living in Morocco has taught me a lot, opened up my eyes and made me more conscious about who I am, what I want and made me more aware about countless things.<\/p>\n<p>I bet those of you are are expats (Moroccan, Polish or any other nations) will understand.<\/p>\n<p>If you are too touchy about your culture, have no sense of humour, distance or don\u2019t know the definition of \u201csarcasm\u201d in some cases, don\u2019t continue reading this article.<\/p>\n<p>Ready?<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s start!<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"driving\">Driving<\/h3>\n<p>The Chinese once invented a super-innovative bus that would skip the traffic. And you know what was my first thought?<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=bpiFJsWdCuY\" rel=\"noopener\">Watch on YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h4 id=\"sht-morocco-cant-be-chinas-customer-this-time\">\u201dSh*t, Morocco can\u2019t be China\u2019s customer this time.\u201d<\/h4>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h4 id=\"why\">Why?<\/h4>\n<p>Simply because this bus would not have the space to skip the traffic. In Morocco all space is used for the cars to pass, a two-line street in Morocco is meant to be for 3-5 rows of cars and not two.<\/p>\n<p>Poland could be their client in this case.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"bargaining\">Bargaining<\/h3>\n<p>Bargaining is not an option in Poland, we like to know everything before choosing it; the price, condition, features. In Morocco everything happens more mysteriously, you never know what the outcome of your shopping will be.\u00a0Negotiating\u00a0is a lifestyle in Morocco.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, in Morocco there is always a way out! Everything can be somehow solved and agreed on.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"giving-directions\">Giving directions.<\/h3>\n<p>When you get lost in Poland and ask someone to give you directions, they will help if they know and say that they don\u2019t know if they really don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n<p>In Morocco people will give you directions even if they don\u2019t know the way. They just want to help you anyway.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"weddings\">Weddings<\/h3>\n<p>Polish weddings have three main activities:<\/p>\n<p>1. The married couple is having fun and sweating with the guests.<\/p>\n<p>2. There is a bottle of vodka per couple<\/p>\n<p>3. Your disgusting, drunk uncles will ask you to dance with them (that\u2019s the part I dislike the most)<\/p>\n<p>Moroccan weddings are totally the opposite. Alcohol is not officially a part of it, bride and groom are there to look beautiful and not to have fun with their guests, men are unlikely to ask women to dance with them.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"eating\">Eating<\/h3>\n<p>In Poland we start off with a massive breakfast, we like to have the energy for the whole day. The lunch (well, in <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/writingcomeseasier.com\/every-nation-has-its-quirks-10-things-that-make-a-pole-polish\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Poland we eat dinner and not lunch<\/a>) is quite big, and the supper (it is what Moroccans call the dinner) is light and early, at 6PM or 8PM.<\/p>\n<p>In Morocco skipping breakfast is quite common, as common as eating late breakfast. Lunch is not that big, but the dinner (meaning our supper) is late and heavy. Moroccans like to eat at 10PM or later.<\/p>\n<figure>\n<p><\/p><figcaption>\n<p>Sardine sandwich, Moroccan delicacy.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 id=\"relationships\">Relationships<\/h3>\n<p>That\u2019s probably my favorite topic! And trust me, it\u2019s so hard to explain to a Pole.<\/p>\n<p>In Poland, if you don\u2019t present your girlfriend or boyfriend to your family, everyone knows you aren\u2019t serious with them.<\/p>\n<p>In Morocco there is no official equivalent for \u201cgf\u201d and \u201cbf\u201d and it is very common to date someone for some years without introducing them to the family. And yes, those are serious relationships that eventually lead to a marriage!<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"paperwork\">Paperwork<\/h3>\n<p>Well, I can\u2019t say that paperwork is super organized in <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.bewilderedinpoland.pl\" rel=\"noopener\">Poland<\/a>. All I can say is that I gave up on scamming it in my homeland after having done lots of paperwork in Morocco\u00a0\ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"catcalling\">Catcalling<\/h3>\n<p>Polish men, in general, are believed to be cold blooded. They won\u2019t talk to a girl on the street even if they like her.<\/p>\n<p>Moroccans, well, they are hot blooded. They will talk to a girl even if they don\u2019t like her.<\/p>\n<p>Well, exceptions exist everywhere. Not all men are the same.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"sharing\">Sharing<\/h3>\n<p>I was on the train with a friend of mine, we were having a vivid conversation and his bottle of water was right in his hand. A random guy asked if he could drink some because he was thirsty. My friend passed the bottle to the guy, he drank and gave it back to my friend. And it is normal in Morocco, I\u2019ve seen it happen so often and I love it. I don\u2019t imagine such a situation in Poland.<\/p>\n<p>Sharing is caring and when you travel on a bus or train in Morocco and someone is eating, be sure they would invite you to join them! It happened to me as many times as I travelled by public transport and I find it super cute!<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"being-late\">Being late<\/h3>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em>\u201cEuropeans have clocks, Africans have time\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>They say.<\/p>\n<p>In Poland if someone is late, expect them to call you and let you know. Being late more than 15min is socially unacceptable and the person who is late will feel ashamed.<\/p>\n<p>In Morocco you can set a meeting, wait for a person and\u2026 never see them. Or at least wait for them an hour. Or two.<\/p>\n<p>I once waited for my doctor in a clinic in Casablanca for 4 hours just to hear that\u2026 he had a plane to Paris and would be back next week.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"greeting-each-other\">Greeting each other<\/h3>\n<p>We, Poles, are a cold nation. For a Pole it\u2019s enough to say \u201chi\u201d on the street whilst for a Moroccan it should be minimum asking about health, family and well-being. A mini conversation is a must with all the neighbors.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"sugar-sugar\">Sugar, sugar\u2026<\/h3>\n<p>In Poland ordering a freshly squeezed juice with sugar would sound crazy. In Morocco ordering a juice without sugar sounds crazy.<\/p>\n<figure>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bewilderedinmorocco.com\/blog\/morocco-vs-poland\/images\/oudayas-orange-logo-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Juice Seller in Oudayas\"\/><\/p><figcaption>\n<p>Juice Seller in Oudayas, Rabat<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 id=\"private-life\">\u00a0Private life<\/h3>\n<p>In Poland it\u2019s perceived impolite to ask too many questions and go too deep into someone\u2019s personal life. In Morocco it\u2019s all right\u00a0to ask about pretty much everything.<\/p>\n<p>A real-life conversation with a taxi driver:<\/p>\n<p>Me: <em>Carrefour in Ziraoui street, please<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Driver: <em>Ok,<\/em>\u00a0<em>Are you going to pick up your kids from school?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Another conversation (I\u2019ve had many similar ones):<\/p>\n<p>Driver: <em>Are you Moroccan?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Me: <em>No<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Driver: <em>American? Russian?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Me: <em>No<\/em><\/p>\n<p>(\u2026)<\/p>\n<p>Driver: <em>Married to a Moroccan or a foreigner<\/em>? (Obviously the \u201cunmarried\u201d answer was not an option)<\/p>\n<p>(\u2026)<\/p>\n<p><em>Why not? When are you going to get married then?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>(\u2026)<\/p>\n<p><em>Why no kids yet? When are you going to have kids? It\u2019s good to have kids early!<\/em><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"shopping\">Shopping<\/h3>\n<p>Shops in Poland are open early and close early. In Morocco they open late and close late. Fancy a sandwich late at night? No problem, bakeries are open 7\/7 till late evening hours. You won\u2019t stay hungry in Morocco!<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"green-spaces\">Green spaces<\/h3>\n<p>That\u2019s something that hurts me in Morocco &#8211; such a beautiful country and still so many people show the lack of respect for the environment. So many landscapes have been destroyed by rubbish. I hope step by step it will change, like it changed in Poland.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com?aid=1234003\" rel=\"noopener\">Booking.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"-bewildered-in-morocco-all-rights-reserved-this-material-may-not-be-published-without-permission-rewrittenor-redistributed\">\u00a9 Bewildered in Morocco.
