How everyone say stuff that's not true. We don't eat bread all the time. We can have warm dinner and there a some people who don't even eat it for breakfast. You don't have to take your ID with you everywhere but I'd recommend it since the cops could go home with you otherwise. Smoking is forbidden in bars etc unless there is a special room/area for smokers(?). We get past 30 degrees too. Noone would call a 12 degree summer hot...just to point out a few that I saw in the video or in the first comments

At least in Bavaria, smoking in a public building or inside a restaurant (anywhere where food is served) is forbidden. You may smoke outside, but not inside. Also, bad customer service? That's not a given. At least in the area where I live, restaurant staff is generally quite friendly. Can't remember ever having a bad service down here.

In the end, she was extradited back to Germany. Another German guy I read about he was found hiding in the rafters of a church chapel and again 'by hook or by crook' he too was not wanting to go back to Germany again he too was extradited? What happening in Germany why these people don't want to return to Germany????

Tip---DON'T LET THEIR SUMMER FOOL YOU! I was there last year in AUGUST(which comes after the hottest month there A.K.A JULY) at a SUMMER camp near Goslar (which is 2 hours from Hannover, Almost parallel to it and almost perpendicular to Berlin) and stayed there 3 weeks and the temperature barely passed 12 degree Celsius and it was pretty hot according to locals like even Toronto hits 35 degrees in summer and maintain an average over 15 till mid October (although it goes down to -25 in winter) Bottom Line__ Take Winter clothes ALWAYS! Oh! BTW The Ja chips there is pretty good i lived on it for more than 2 weeks cuz we could only eat food given by the camp and a few snacks -.-) but you will find Turkish shops quite often so don't worry :3 (side note) i was mostly at the camp and visited some tourist spots so didn't get to experience local culture and people

I used to think the same but then i discovered that it's too much of a clash. Small talk is an extension of connection with people and the environment. When you contemplate life, observe and understand and ultimately want to share your thoughts and views. If there's no place for small talk, it cannot grow to eventually become Big. There's no connection taking place. it becomes very difficult to getting to know people.

Vielen herzlichen dank, liebe Jennifer, daß Du unseren englisch sprechenden Gästen unsere Gewohnheiten und unsere Kultur so liebevoll und verständlich erklärst, denn damit bist Du ein gutes Aushängeschild für unser Land, unsere Kultur und unser Volk! Der Kundenservice in USA ist übrigens nicht besser, sondern nur anders und meist sehr nervig, weil man dort dauernd angesprochen wird und man in Gaststätten nicht in Ruhe sitzen, essen und trinken kann, ohne dauernd gestört und letztlich sogar hinaus komplimentiert zu werden! Aber warum sprichst Du so häßlich von "Germans fucking starr!"? - Ersten starren Deutsche normaler Weise niemanden an, sondern schauen ihn nur freundlich interessiert an, weil sie sich für alle Ausländer und das Leben um sie herum interessieren und zweites solltest Du es den Amis mit ihren vielen bösartigen Schimpfwörter nicht nachmachen und dritten, was hat überhaupt "Starren" mit "ficken" zu tun, was ja doch die lieblose, egoistische und unwürdige geschlechtlichen Betätigung bezeichnet?

Curious: 6 yrs. in the States = could (partially) explaine your next to perfect pronounciation (particularly the vowals). Soft endings "love", "have", "is", "bad", "big", "job": This would be the dot on the i. Bit puzzled about the huge discrepance: channel intro = more than 300 000 clicks. This video (4/2017) almost 9 000 and all the rest: Not so many. How I got here: 1. The thumbnail of this video here showed up in the "suggestions" on the right side of the screen; 2. I've developed an obsession concerning English language in general and what expats have to say about Germany in particular. A channel like "Don't trust the rabbit" does the trick as well. She is a German and (I hope she will never find out what I'm going to say now): Your English is way, way, way bettter than hers. I will never get the staring part. If there is an exceptionally pritty girl: One might lose it for some moments (they force you in school to stare at a Rembrandt painting but you are not allowed to stare at some even more beautiful manifestation). Apart from that: Avoiding eye contact is the most important mission one is entrusted with whilst beeing in (on?) a S-Bahn/Tram/Bus or something. Far distance travel: Different setting. Normally I am an extremely shy person: But if I would not get my tap water for free in a restaurant this could turn into an ugly scene. But that's Berlin (Oh! It even rhymes if you pronounce Berlin the German way "bare lean" rhymes with "scene"). You have a dozen restaurants within walking distance.

oh believe me it IS true. if you soon as you turn 16 you have to have your personal ID with you and if you don't they will take you with them where you spend some time at the policestation until they know exactly who you are. a german police officer can claim "criminological experience" wich justifies a suspicion, and a suspicion demands a determination. they can keep you for determination purpose for i think 24 hours, i'm not sure exactly how long. in case it's needed to keep you longer they need a warrant signed by a judge. in this case they transfer you from the police station into a determination prison. judges commonly follow requests. the same pattern is also commonly used during random traffic stops. they ask you nicely for an alcohol test and if you deny they claim "crimonological experience" and take you with them. once at the policestation they get the fitting warrant, its just a call and a fax, and force you to do a drug and alcohol test. this time a doc pokes you with a needle and because you ruined their afternoon or evening they give a damn if it hurts or not! in case you just forgot your ID at home expect to get charged with 30€-50€ the first time. later it gets even more expensive, especially if you bump into a meet and greet with the german customs (zoll). when they show up at your workplace and you can't show your social insurance ID you're in BIG trouble.
