Switched up

One of the humorous, small things to get used to here are the letters on the faucets. Many have Spanish labels and so the one on the left says C for "caliente" and the one on the right reads F for "frio." However, many faucets I have seen are in English. The confusion this causes is that most of the the English ones are installed with the nob labeled C on the left to coordinate with the Spanish "caliente" leaving the right, cold nob to read H. This is even the case on those that are additionally color coded with blue for cold and red for hot. In case you visit, know that in general, regardless of the labeling, hot is on the left and cold on the right.
