Part 1
5. Drivers give you a way
... even better than in Finland. I have spent most of my life in Finland where it's quite save to cross the street. So it shouldn't be a surprise for me if drivers are polite. But geez, here you don't have to think can you cross the street in the crosswalk because everyone stops. Right away. You just need to walk. And it is awesome.
6. Traffic light are extremely fast.
Seriously. It is almost impossible to cross the street with green light. You need to run if you don't want to wait another green.
7. Light switches are wrong way.
At least at our home. No one believes me and I'm the only one who gets annoyed by it, but I'm sure that in all the houses I have lived in Finland the light is off when the switch is down. Here it's on. You can imagine how many times I have forgotten to turn off the lights..
8. Windows open two ways.
This is apparently normal in many European countries but for me it is the first time to actually realize it. All of our windows can be opened both vertically and horizontally. I have never seen it in Finland. But again, this might be only our house.
