So we’ve been traveling for a while now. There are simply some telltale signs that you’ve been in Europe too long:

· Don’t even think in dollars anymore. Just euros

· Think in kilometers instead of miles, meters instead of feet, kilograms instead of pounds More or less, you do what the rest of the world does, which is use the metric system

· Call diet coke coca light

· Think in Celsius instead of Fahrenheit. I guess again… use the metric system.
