Awesome Thing About Living in Europe #2

Since awesome thing #1 was picked by Tom, I decided that #2 could be my pick.

Awesome Thing About Living in Europe #2:  Chivalry


Men in this country are incredibly chivalrous.  A man always opens a door for a women and makes sure that she walks ahead of him into a doorway, elevator, etc.  While some people might find this bit of "awesome" surprising coming from me, I have to say that I do enjoy it.  While riding the train in Chicago a man would rarely get up for a women unless she was older or visibly pregnant....and even that wasn't always the case.  So, thank you Polish men for holding open the doors for me!
