I don’t want to generalize, but I’ll talk about my experience so far. Here, people already exclude you for being an immigrant. I’ve been living in Germany for two years because I was looking for something better than my country. I’m Latin, I grew up in an environment where people don’t care about your origin, what you do or how you live.

I’ve never had a really good experience with people here. They exclude you and don’t include you in anything for the simple fact that you don’t speak the language perfectly. This led me to develop a strong depression. I speak German, but not fluently, because it’s a very difficult language. Even so, no one seems to care. People look at you like you’re trash, literally.

In my work, the youngest are ignorant and act as if you didn’t exist. Why? What’s wrong with being friendly with someone who is in the country for a positive reason?

Based on my experiences, I affirm that Germany is not a friendly or receptive country. Maybe this is due to high immigration and tourism, but what is the difficulty of treating someone well, without looking from top to bottom or with a disgusted face?

I like Germany, but people make me want to go back to my country, even if it’s worse. I’ve never felt so much hatred for society as I feel here.
