Reading people repeating again and again the same stupid fairy tales about the lazy southern europeans and the diligent northern europeans is frankly annoying. For example the author says that:

> "I don’t think they have siestas in Germany…"

A wild siesta cliché suddenly appears.

You are really funny. For your information, workers in Spain don't have "siestas" since XIX siecle, we have electricity and cars also. I can understand how for many young europeans the entire experience of Spain can fit in a blurry weekend in Magaluf, a bleeding nose and maybe a broken arm after jumping to a pool, but the country is a little more than that.
