I Heart Rogova!

So I know I said I was going to post like every other day from now on but I just remembered a few things on the drive to Rogova and I wanted to post them now before I forgot.

1) Instead of honking at a car when it veers into your lane, drivers here simply just merge into the oncoming traffic (lane) instead to avoid it. I'm not even sure why they have lane dividers here. Literally no one follows them. Most people drive 3/4 of the way in one lane and 1/4 of the way in another!

2) I think I'm getting a tan. It's either that or I'm just dirty. I haven't been able to figure it out yet.

3) Men like to go shirtless here. Like a lot. I've see quite a few guys working on houses, in fields, or even just walking around sans shirts.

4) Adina and I walked to Lidl (another store here) to get bread today and we also ended up with some ice cream for the walk home. It was neat walking through a different part of Severin and seeing the differences in  the houses all around here.

5) There are super clear gender roles here that almost everyone follows. You almost never see the men with the children or in the kitchens/houses. The men mostly work I guess even though I have yet to figure out what  exactly it is that some of them do (like the men you see wandering around during the day and what not).

Here are some pictures in Severin and Rogova from today!
