2) Freiburgers (lmao, I know) are very nice to/used to foreigners, due to its extremely central location. On any given Saturday, at least half of the custom
ers at the local IKEA are French.3) Yes, there are exceptions to the stereotypes. For example, my flatmates don’t recycle. They have three trashcans just for the hell of it.
4) Speaking of my flatmates… Germans don’t congregate in the communal areas of their flats. They stay in their rooms with the door closed, no matter what they are doing.
5) And yes, Germans are very, very punctual.
6) They will clarify for you that David Hasselhoff was not responsible for the unification of Germany.
7) For some reason, instead of regular windows, they have glass doors with gates immediately outside of said doors.
8) Skim milk does not exist. Additionally, Germans find the thought of skim milk repulsive. (Speaking of food: the Coke bottles are shaped completely differently, and Harry Potter helps sell food in Germany. See pictures.)
9) At the clubs, they play American music, but not American club music. Think Tutti Fruiti, La Bumba, Shakira, The Killers, Rock Around the Clock.
10) Finally, there are creepers in Germany, and they are much more aggressive than the average American creeper. Trust me.

David Hasselhoff: LOL
Creepers: I believe you. I think that they're actually worse anywhere outside the US. Which is bad, because we def have our fair share here.
