Stereotypes

In the northern countries of Europe, Spanish people are often seen as lazy. In England, it is said that the Spanish people are always having fun, drinking, sleeping and that we don't like to work.

But on the other hand, the northern contries have a similar opinion about all the southern European countries. They love our sun and our food, and it is said that Spanish women are beautiful.

Ironically, the worst opinions about us come from our neighbours in the southern Europe. Italians say that Spanish people are dirty and that the men are ugly. But all these stereotypes are more humoristic than real.

In conclution, when people get to know us they change their opinion and they consider us friendly and cheerful.

  2. I think that in Northern Europe you are considered as lazy, becouse you are having "siesta", which is not practiced in other countries. But, on the other hand in your country is much more hot than in Poland for example. I think that in Poland you are consiedered as funny and very open-minded people :D
