Club Med Germany

One claims they're a cold culture. The Germans. Not heartly to newcomers. But arriving in summer time, I can not agree with that.

I arrive in an almost Mediteranean atmosphere. Club Med Germany.

People sitting arm in arm on a table. Shaking from left to right on the bench. Singing German schlager music. Drinking wine - no, no beer - under the trees. Sharing their food on one large table.

And they don't care I am a foreigner. They talk. And laugh. Share their food. And wine. Every weekend again. In another town.

My own German says it has something to do with the wine. Beer makes agressive. Wine makes people smile.

Well, I can't speak for them all... But Germans drinking wine are definitly not cold. They talk. And laugh. Out of their heart.

P.S.: Still no lederhosen!
