German travel tips
Hello!
Yesterday I made a little exaggerated gesture...
My left shoulder hurts.Well
I haven't been there yet,
"Is this forty shoulders?? (fifty shoulders soon)"Waterfall sweat
It makes me think...
My arm wasn't working well and I was on the road, so I had trouble driving on my way home.
What's wrong with the winker (the left-hand drive in Germany)? I can't stretch my arms.
Every time I had to take out the turn signal, I was moving my upper body up and down the handle.
It was a Tyrannosaurus state or movement of a person with extremely short arms.Laughter crying
I haven't left it to my experience (don't put up with it), I drank ibuprofen right away, and I was getting better this morning, but be careful.
Somehow... Even if you say you are 27 years old (you still say?), your body will gradually become stiff.
It is balebare that he does not do any exercise every day.
Change your mind and start stretching again.
Today is a little extra edition.
While checking the news this morning, I found the following article.
" This is the one you should bring! A summary of what to bring in Germany"
Hmm, what is essential for people today? I read with chilled half.
"I see."Straight face
I thought about how to read it, but I thought Auntie Auntu would add a little.
It's about my comment...
I hope it will be useful for people who will be traveling to Germany.
Note: This is based on the article linked above.
1. laptop
How about this?
Nowadays many people will be OK if they have a mobile phone... There are many places with Wifi, but my feeling is that it's difficult to connect.
It depends on the model, but my iPad won't connect even if my sister's iPhone connects.
Also, this is often seen at home, even when not on a trip, "I often cannot watch Japanese movies ."
2. Dental care/sanitary products
That's right. Few hotels have toothbrushes.
If you have body soap and rinse-in shampoo, you'll be lucky.
There are also places where there is no soap.
Slippers are not common in hotels.
I think that you can divert the in-flight use, but it is definitely better to wear indoor shoes.
Japanese sanitary products are absolutely good. Made in Germany is quite uncomfortable if you are not used to it.
Most tampons with applicators are not sold.
If you are planning on traveling, you may want to bring it (it disappears).
3. binoculars
I have never used it. I think this is not limited to Germany.
4. Shopping bag and credit card
A shopping bag is mandatory. Especially supermarket. You can buy it for a few tens of yen, but it will collect.
It's also a good idea to buy one cute one first and use it while traveling.
It is better to have a credit card, but there are many places where you can only use cash and EC (see below) at restaurants.
There is no doubt that the more you go to the countryside, the less popular your credit card becomes.
Germans basically don't like credit cards very much.
Apart from young people (more people are shopping online), there are still many shops that do not like paying fees (on the shop side), and they are not as popular as in Japan.
*EC (Karte) is a so-called debit card that can be used to withdraw directly from a bank account.
Basically, having cash is safer as you go to the countryside.
Credit cards are OK at gas stations everywhere.
* Gas stations are 99% self-service.
5. Disposable cutlery
I have never used it. I think that there is individual difference in whether or not required
Wouldn't it be better to use chopsticks for lunch instead of being disposable?
I remembered it as a disposable item, but I always bring it with me because it is convenient to have a garbage bag (a little larger).
If you put dirty things in, or if you put liquid things and keep your mouth tight, you can minimize the damage even if it leaks in the suitcase.
When you bring it home, you can take out the laundry and use it as the original “trash bag”.
It's more convenient to put shoes in one bag each, rather than putting them in a box.
6. Instant miso soup
I think it depends on the length of the trip and the person.
If you really want to eat... But I don't think it is essential.
7. Swimwear
This also depends on the person.
As mentioned in the article, I would like you to think that this "hot spring" is the basic "heated pool".
Of course, I wear swimsuits, but in places like spas, there are also "mixed bath" areas...
I've never been there, but it Illaseems that old-fashioned people (even Obasan) who think "I don't want to see it " are struggling with their appearance.
By the way, it is familiar to European countries, but women's swimwear is 90% or more bikini regardless of age.
It stands out when wearing a dress.
Especially in Europe, the farther you go to the south, the lower the rate of one-piece swimwear.
I think that Italy is 100% bikini.
It's a perfect bikini for both auntie aunt and aunIt's a perfect bikini for both auntie aunt and aunt like dried daikon.bikini
I'm always standing out. (Two pieces for the time being, but at first glance)
8. Winter clothes
Required. 〇 The ultra-thin down vest with two black layers is a big success even in summer.
Especially for those who go to Northern Germany, don't forget long sleeves and socks even in summer.
If you forget your hat, don't forget your socks.
Of course, you can buy it here as well.
9. Sanitary goods (medicines)
The article has a picture of the drug (laughs), but the sanitary products are as above.
The medicines are not limited to painkillers, but it is safer if at least one medicine is used.
Since Germany is a pharmacy kingdom, there are pharmacies (not drugstores) everywhere, but I think many people find it difficult to explain and buy in German (or English)...
10. Stomach medicine
I think it should be there.
But more than that, in Japan, two servings? It's better to share or leave the amount that seems to be.
If you forget, Iberogast (liquid gastric medicine), which you can buy at Apothek (pharmacy), is recommended.
I personally think it is delicious.
11. Supplement
Certainly, eating out only leads to a shortage of vegetables.
But lately, every restaurant has a good vegetarian menu.
If it's a little urban, there are many vegetarian and vegan restaurants.
I want to eat deliciously and supplement vitamins rather than taking medicine.
12. Vegetable juice
You can buy it at any supermarket.
However, I don't know if it suits the Japanese.
I was surprised that I didn't even have the idea of taking such a heavy thing on a trip.
My motto is what you don't need.
What you can do with substitutes, you can do with substitutes.
I think the real pleasure of traveling is to try local products that are different in usability and taste from those in Japan.
Even if it tastes bad, it only takes a few days. I'll be patient, if I were... (Ah, patience is not a virtue! AseaseSweat← It doesn't mean that Straight face)
It's best to bring things that you can't hear (medicine medicines, books, etc.) from Japan, but Germany is a developed country.
Most things are available.
However, there is no convenience store . Please note.
Recently, there are some large chain supermarkets that open until 22:00, but there are no stores that open 24 hours.
You cannot shop on Sundays and public holidays. See previous article → ☆
Many tourist spots and big cities can speak English, but if you go to the countryside, give up.Blur
You should be lucky if you can speak English.
13. Bonus souvenir edition
You might think of sausages and beer mugs as souvenirs from Germany.
It is sold exempt from tax at the airport.
Of course, it may be cheaper to buy at a supermarket or in the city, but if you are a dim person who is stuck at customs or quarantine, please do it at the airport.
The tax exemption at Frankfurt Airport is more substantial at Terminal 1.
ANA is the first terminal and Japan Airlines is the second terminal.
14. For people traveling by car
I am writing about autobahn circumstances. → ☆ and ☆
Since the basics are manual, if you do not want to make a reservation in advance if you want to use the automatic system,
"no stock"Straight face
Is often said.Gahn
You shouldn't expect the full service like in Japan.Straight face
↑ This is all about everything.
15. About bonus chips
There are big differences depending on the country, and the tip is a problem.
If you think about 10% in Germany, it's OK.
16. Items that will not be returned and used
handkerchief. Every toilet has a paper towel or jet air dryer.
Then an umbrella. I don't put an umbrella on it unless it rains a lot. Even if it gets wet, it will dry quickly.
If you can afford your luggage, take it with you. Of course, local procurement is possible.
17. Public toilet circumstances
Think of almost no free public toilets. (Excluding airport)
To go to the toilet in the city, pay for toilets at department stores, shopping centers, stations, etc. where there is an aunt.
Or a restaurant etc
