1. People don't cross their arms as much here...haven't been able to figure out why.
2. Some things are more organized in Argentina: people form lines at the bus stops, rather than just staying in a big cluster.
3. Men DEFINITELY touch more: not weird for a man to put his arm around another, or sit a little bit closer together than I'm used to, or dance together in a group.
4. They call friends "gordo," and it's not an insult. Still can't get used to that!
5. People don't leave as much space when passing each other in the street.
6. There are SO many dogs...especially for it being a big city.
7. When guys dance with you here, they ask you like a thousand questions...as if it were an interview...where are you from? What do you study? Do you like it here? Where do you live? ...blah blah blah...
8. I think that in general you have to interact more with salespeople/ waiters. As in...you have to ask specifically for the check (they don't just bring it to you), you have to ask for sizes at clothing stores (everything's not out for you to look through)
