I paused and told her that I seldom drink tea.

Later, I learned that tea means dinner in English culture.

When I first came to England to go to the toilet.

An English brother said cheers to me.

I didn't know it meant thank you.

I thought he was wishing me a happy pee.

All right! thank you

What about you?

I am fine too

I said it myself.

Me: "…?"

"It's free."

Me: "Wwww…"

Me: "(The more you lie in the trough, the better! )"

At that time, I really always thought I would be given money and asked how much I wanted. ...

As a result, someone once gave me new year's propaganda paper, and then they said to me: Happy New Year.

Then I quickly replied: No, thanks.

13, first time in Britain,

I feel that the country of gentlemen has been waiting for the green light when crossing the road.

But I didn't know I had to press the button.

As a result, I waited for 7 minutes at the deserted intersection, which was very embarrassing.

I raised my hand and said hello and left.

It's embarrassing to leave him alone.
