Good old Spain
My sister, upon leaving 6th form, took a year out to work as an Au Pair in Spain. She lived in the Port of Vigo with a Spanish couple along with their young daughter.
My mum, Dad and I travelled down from Yorkshire by car, the 24 hours on a ferry before another 8 hours drive to visit my sister in this un-touristy part of Spain.
As you can imagine, after a full week of the Spanish staring at us for driving in an English car, I assume they hadnt seen one before, it got to be a bit annoying. I asked my sister what the translation for "what are you looking at?" was. My sister duly obliged and I spent the second week of the holiday telling all the nosy Spanish to "Soy tonto!!!".
Sadly, my sister never explained to me until we were ready for the gruelling trip home that I had in fact being blurting out to half of the Vigo population that "I am an idiot". Oops.
