over here most of the banks close at 15:30, I think there's only one shopping centre in which the banks stay open until 5 PM

you can not buy alcohol on Sunday, although I've seen bottle stores open on Sun in the past couple of months, so I guess may be the the law had been changed

you can hear about one million languages spoken here, everybody speaks English at least to a certain degree

black and white people don't really mix - most of the night life places are either 'white' or 'black', although that changes slowly

public transport is almost non-existent, if you don't have a car you're fucked, of course there are busses but they come like once an hour and don't cover most of the city

(poor) black people move around using 'black taxis' which are actually minibusses that can take about 15 passengers
