Hahaha this is so true Myrkskog. And don't get me started on the lack of air conditioning everywhere. Summer can be hell here with the German's apparent hate for coolness.

? ... what. My train has air conditioning. The building I work in has it. I do cool all my drinks... and all persons I know do the same. Totally couldn't disagree more with Myrkskog.

Pretty funny how fast cliches are established based on 1 person's weird experiences

Ah yes, the fabled air conditioning in German trains... It's so awesome it starts to overheat at temperatures over 30° C or 35° C or something like that and then fails completely, so it pretty much only works when you don't need it.

I find it funny that after complaining about being mistaken as the same people, Carnac and Carmac have twice posted after one another... Interesting.

most of my friends and I drink water (medium sparkle ^.^) most of the time. The rest is coffee, juice and beer. And if you wanna taste great german food try a homemade duck - it is amazing (if done right).

a little video in case you get homesick =)
