      Actually, it is considered heroic fooling around, falling on your face and not spilling a drop of "kühles blondes" (cool blond, beer), expressed by the person doing it with a teethless smile and sparkling eyes (at least until you get old enough to appreciate the value of a normal-teethed face), replied to by a cheerful acknowledgement from the watching crowd. whhoooeeeyyyy

      Well the gluten free situation is becoming better and despite de video description if you are vegetarian/vegan its quite easy to live here. Vegetarianism and Reformhäuser (shops where you can buy goods, that support a healthy life style) have a long tradition in Germany. Berlin is kind of the vegan capital of Europe and thanks to many "flexitarians" (semi-vegetarians) you can get more and more vegan products in regular supermarkets

    But I like our bread though, it's great.
    I also like to laugh, and I make other people laugh. The reason why people think, that Germans don't laugh is probably, because our humour might be a bit different and more complex.

      Heh. I can't speak for the entire Poland, but in Upper Silesia (Oberschlesien in German) where I live, except for one person I have never heard anything bad being said in real life about current Germany... But even that one person during the course of the last twenty years went from "They all have evil in their genome, that's why WWII had happened" to "They speak too loud... But not as loud as Italians". Believe me or not, she is even planning to visit you the next year.
      "Just to see Nefertiti", hah.
      In other words, you are so amazing right now, that you have changed someone's heart ❤️! And trust me, it is a very stubborn heart.
      However, please keep in mind, that due to it's history Upper Silesia have pretty strong cultural ties with Germany, so things may look different in other parts of my country ... But to be honest, Poland in general has strong ties with you. Don't let the language difference fool you, we are basically your Slavic cousins.
      If anybody have any further questions, I would love to answer 🙂
