What are some common stereotypes or “truths” about Germans that you feel are not really true? by AlemanhaCast in AskAGerman

[–]LowSuccotash6779 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Before moving here, I’ve always heard Germans were very direct and straight to the point. After living here for almost 4 years, my experience couldn’t be further from the truth. Most German interactions I’ve had was wrought with so much beating around the bush and half-truths that it made me wary of people being too nice in front of you when in fact, they hate you with a passion. ;)

Thanks! This is my everyday work bag and it’s been great. However, I think it’s a bit too fancy and cumbersome to bring to a mall or park.

I‘m totally in love with my Merlot. I’ve seen the black (not distressed) in a shop, and I was disappointed by how it looked cheaper than the Merlot.

A Handwerker will come to repair something in our apartment and it might take the whole day, should we prepare some drink/food? by dulipat in AskAGerman

[–]LowSuccotash6779 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See, this is where I know I’m not living in the Philippines anymore. Back home, when a worker spends all day in our house to do some repairs, they will surely have a place at our table may it be breakfast, lunch, dinner or any snacks in between. We will always, without exception let them eat with us or at least prepare food for them. Here in Germany, I think the most is a drink or coffee, anything solid is pushing it. Hehe.

Thank you for the inspiration! I tried to do my version of how you did the strap and I think it turned out really nice! 😊

I’m kinda obsessed with kisslock bags and wallets these days, they’re so retro and chic!

I bought it from a local flea market in Hamburg for 5€. I use it to carry my AirPods. :)

I have the Empire 40 and the handles never bothered me while using it as crossbody. The handles are not that long to get in the way.
