Life in Europe

I had heard about the slow pace of life in Europe. I am getting to see it now. Everyone believes in leading a relaxed life. Even people who own businesses in the cities. They don't care for the extra business they may have by keeping their shops for a longer time during the day. Most shops close by 6pm. It is hard to digest this practice after seeing other places that had plenty of shops that were open 24hours.
I guess, the shopkeepers have their right to lead a relaxed life too.

Even at work, there is always somebody who has gone on a long vacation(of a few weeks to a few months). Especially now, since it is summer and it is about to end. It is so hard for us to even imagine such a thing, considering the way things work back home. Although I would love to do so too...
