Where I'm from, we're pretty relaxed about time.
我所在的地方，对时间的要求是相当宽松的。
We don't like to rush around, so we don't mind if people are a little late sometimes.
我们不喜欢匆匆忙忙，所以有时别人迟到了，我们也不介意。
If you tell a friend you're going to their house for dinner, it's OK if you arrive a bit late.
如果你告诉朋友要去他们家吃晚餐，去晚点也没关系。
We like to enjoy our time slowly. We value the time we spend with our family and friends in our everyday lives.
我们喜欢慢慢享受时间。我们重视生活中和家人朋友相处的时间。
We often just drop by our friends' homes if we have time. We don't usually have to make plans to meet our friends.
如果有时间，我们常会去朋友家里坐坐。我们不用为见朋友而制定计划。
When we see each other, it's polite for boys to shake hands and for girls to kiss each other on the side of the face.
当我们看到朋友，男孩应该握手，女孩应该亲吻彼此脸颊才礼貌。
We often just walk around the town center, seeing as many of our friends as we can!
我们经常在市中心附近散步，尽可能多地探访我们的朋友。

In Switzerland, it's very important to be on time. We're the capital of clocks and watches, after all!
在瑞士，准时很重要。毕竟，我们是钟表之都！
If someone invites you to meet him or her at noon, then you're expected to be there at noon. If you're even 15 minutes late, your friend may get mad.
如果别人邀你中午见面，那么你就应该中午到那。如果你迟到了15分钟，你的朋友可能会生气的。
So I make an effort to be on time when I meet my friends. I always leave the house early to avoid heavy traffic because I think it's impolite to keep others waiting.
所以当我去见朋友时，我尽量准时。我总是会早点出门，避开高峰，因为我觉得让别人一直等是不礼貌的。
Also, we never visit a friend's house without calling first. We almost always make plans to see friends.
同样，没有事先告诉朋友时，我是不会去拜访他们的。我们总是在见朋友前制定计划。
We usually plan to do something interesting, or go somewhere together.
我们常计划去做些有趣的事，或是一起去某地。
