• Seats on the Deutsche Bahn can be reserved, so if a seat has a Destination location on it, don’t sit there
  • German people love to recycle
  • Drink prices may or may not include the cost of the bottle they come in. If you return the bottle though, you get money back
  • Grocery bags cost money
  • No water fountains
  • Cokes often come in glass bottles
  • German roads are confusing
  • For as health-conscience as Germans are, they really love to smoke
  • Germans don’t include much if any ice in drinks
  • Some German hair salons have DIY blow dryer stations
  • Apparently Germans love Coca-Cola and nothing else because everyone seems to carry Coke, but hardly anyone has Pepsi. As far as I’ve noticed, only gas stations carry Dr. Pepper.

  • 90% or more of sports cars I’ve seen have been black, for some unknown reason
  • Most license plate numbers in Germany start with a region or city code, making it easy to figure out what part of Germany a car is from (i.e. cars registered in Marburg start with MR _____).
  • Germans appear to have some fascination with Texas and Hawaii, especially the latter.
  • The percentage of hot women in Germany is staggering.
  • Apfelwein tastes the same as regular wine to me.
