😴You probably have hear of Spaniards taking a siesta at midday or even seeing businesses closing during the day... strange, isn't?⁣⁣

But did you know that they also like to take a couple of weeks or even a full month off in summer as well? ⁣🏖️⁣
⁣
⁣⁣
Traditionally the month for holidays is AUGUST, and during this time you shouldn’t plan on advancing with big projects in Spain (like applying for school, getting a driver’s license, etc.) and might want to consider that the restaurant you really wanted to try will also be closed due to the holidays. ⁣🚪⁣

It ties in to the work-to-live vs. live-to-work ideology 🧘🏽‍♂️🧘🏻‍♀️. It is a way for people to connect to their past and to ensure they get the time to rest they deserve.⁣⁣

🌞If you want to enjoy the summer months like a true Spaniard, head to beach ⛱️ or to the smaller mountain towns ⛰️ to escape the heat—, eat local food 🥘, and try to spend time with your loved ones! ⁣

💶In Spain, tipping is entirely optional and it’s not very common. ⁣
⁣
⁣
You may see people leaving small change at cafés and bars and, eventually, someone tipping at a nice expensive restaurant. But most of the time, you won’t see anyone other than tourists leaving a tip.🧳⁣
⁣
⁣
In general, if you are treated like a royal or someone does a super job for you, you could consider leaving a small tip – probably a couple of euros. But that’s it. Tips are a reward for an excellent service, nothing more.⁣
⁣
⁣
Remember, it’s by no means an imperative and is never expected.⁣
