how much of it is stereotype? and how much is maybe a little bit of both in our segment, truth or cliche. we're asking people from different european countries. what they're really like, and this time we're meeting for young people from spain. why are the spaniards always late as spanish men or women? good lovers. ah, spain. that's the southern european country where folks are always poem and go dancing, taking a siesta and eating top us or are those just stereotypes? there are close to $50000000.00 spaniards in berlin. we asked for them about cliches. we're here for i'm say to you. if they're most google questions about this,
