In Germany I find most supermarkets (especially places like Edeka) to be really quiet, and shopping is actually a pleasant experience. But I came back to the UK last year and I've noticed how LOUD people are in supermarkets! There are always screaming kids in there, people having loud conversations, the beeping tills, the loud af tanoy announcements (B&M almost gave me a heart attack lmao), the coughing in crowds of people without covering their mouth... 💀 And Sunday's feel weird to me in the UK because Sundays are quiet days! Why are people mowing their lawns or doing DIY in the UK on a Sunday? I feel like shouting SONNTAG IST RUHETAG. 😂

I am not sure if most people understood what REVERSE culture shocks actually means. Doesn't seem like. 😜

No shopping after 8 PM. Bavarian issue, not German.

Thank you for this video! I am going to study in Germany in October this year and I heard so much bad news about Germany from the Chinese media (of course hahaha). But I also heard some neutral and good comments from the people who actually live in Germany. You video even makes me look forward to going there more. Vielen Dank!

Friendliness is spelt with an I instead of a Y. This is the English language.

It's weird you would hear the British anthem in the beginning of a video about Germany. Seems like someone confused something there...

Wait, it snowed in Munich recently? Or is this from a while back?

[koviyovas]

how is there "culture shock" at anything nowadays when one can just search here on youtube or any website to get a heads up ?

Wait, why the British anthem in a video about culture shocks in Germany, that's weird...

Thema verfehlt...most of the time. Setzen, sechs!

I don't know why your title is reverse culture shock from living in Germany. I think it's culture shock in Germany and reverse culture shock for foreigners relocating to their motherland.

I do not know who brought this idea that everything should be closed in Germany on sundays, and on working days everything is closed after like 20h00, worst idear ever people are humans they can not be machines they can be 80% organized even 90% but not100% organized and have the time to do everything, some people wants to do meetings in restaurants at nights after work, some people wants to make plans together about anything outside home that is just crazy how this country is against changes !
