My impression of Germany


 I have to admit that I came to Germany with every possible German stereotype in mind. I imagined a very strict school, serious and cold people, everything orderly, and in general, a rather introverted society. And the truth is, I was quite wrong. I've met some very sweet and loyal people. The school didn't have the rules I expected, and the streets are noisy and full of all kinds of people. They're not so different from Spaniards, though. I do think that, in general, Germans are more disciplined; they have it more normalized. I wasn't expecting such a striking contrast between the weekend and weekdays. During the week, everything is super focused on work and study, but when the weekend arrives, everything is very calm, and they use Sundays to go for walks outdoors. On the other hand, at the school I have seen that everyone has a very good relationship with each other, there is a lot of respect among classmates and a lot of awareness about bullying. Furthermore, there is a great diversity of styles and it's normalized that there are people with different aesthetics, that has surprised me a lot. The language was difficult for me to understand, but here they really master English, so I haven't had any problems with the language. Finally, I've noticed they're very environmentally conscious and against animal cruelty; there are tons of vegan options on the menus, and many people my age have decided to become vegan.
