Nap Time
As a kid, depending on where you grew up, you may have had nap time. As an adult, you may wish for those nap-time days when you need a bit of extra rest during a long day. However, you can only daydream about taking a nap! In some countries, though, afternoon nap time (known as “siesta”) is a cultural norm and is even included for specific jobs. How lucky!
An Irish resident took a job as an au pair for a Spanish family living in France. On the first day of meeting the family, she was culture-shocked to realize the family all took naps after lunch. They closed the room up so it would be dark. When nap time was over, the mother would wake everyone up, including the very confused nanny.
