Punctuality

Elle and I have a connection in Basel Switzerland with the brother of a friend from Pepperdine. Upon trying to coordinate with Ben, Elle and I learned an important cultural differences between the Swiss and Americans. Ben became frustrated with us because we ket canceling and changing plans super last minute like typical American students do. Ben kindly explained to us that the Swiss love to plan in advance and stick to their plans. Even though I love spontaneity the Swiss sense of commitment is commendable.
