#001 Traffic: The red is just a nice colour

Hi!! There's something you should know about Ireland: the car wheel is on the right side, which means that they drive in the opposite direction than the one we're used to. It seems obvious and easy, but crossing the roads can become an epic adventure.

When I arrived to Dublin the taxi driver warned us about it. It seems there're a lot of accidents. At first I thought it was because unwary tourists... but no. After two months I have learnt one thing: the traffic lights are just shiny colours. Pedestrians have developed an amazing -superpower- ability to circumvent cars, bikes, and any other wheel vehicle. There's a reason (or at least I understand why we they do it): time. You can easily await seven minutes since you push the bottom to cross the road until the light turns green. The funny thing is that when  the long waited moment arrives, it only lasts 2 seconds (it must be a metaphor of life or something xD). True story.


I'm still developing the Dubliner traffic-sense, but I have learnt some tricks: red is just a nice colour -that helps you to do exercise-, the yellow is your friend, and the green... is a four leaf clover xD
