Americano with a Side of Culture: A Traveler's Humorous Encounter in Poland

A Spanish traveler, Iván Gálvez, documented a humorous cultural difference during his trip to Poland. While ordering an Americano with ice in a Warsaw cafe, he received the ice separately in a small dish. This is unusual compared to Spanish coffee culture, where ice is typically added directly to the coffee. Gálvez filmed his reaction, which has gained some online traction. "Las costumbres no se pierden, te lo pongan como te lo pongan," he commented, highlighting the persistence of personal habits regardless of local customs. This simple event illustrates the unexpected encounters and cultural adjustments travelers often face abroad, reminding us of the diverse ways we enjoy a simple beverage like coffee.
