> Driving there is tiring, the brain just gets tired from it.

I moved away from Poland a decade ago, and each time I come back I get distracted like crazy as a passenger in a car. My brain doesn't know what's happening for the first hour until I realize what's up.

Literally every 50m there's a billboard on a road, billboard on someone's house, billboard on a fence. From big companies (telcos etc.) through all kinds of local businesses ("Selling X", "buying Y", "repairing Z").

A relevant meme that is on point: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EvoPf6OWYAMC0Sd.jpg




Damn, I identify with that photo a lot. Portugal is truly honorary Eastern Europe.
