As a European I just want to say that parents that smoke when they are with their children are highly judged here as well!

[@Shiliitexx]

Maybe in your contry but not in my country...

[@rainbowgirl949494]

when I was a child it was completely normal in my country but now it’s not & parents usually smoke outside of the house or try to only smoke at work.

[@Shiliitexx]

@@rainbowgirl949494 Like I say maybe in your contry but not mine. We don't judge people who smoke with their children even If I don't like myself and that tend to change. You know, in my country it's only since last year that we can't slap a child and a lot of parents still do it. All Europeans countries are not the same.

[@camille_N]

@@Shiliitexx where are you from?

[@shamkand]

True in my country as well people would be pissed and angry to see a parent spoke around children, they would have a very bad impression and consider them a failure as a parent, it does not happen a lot. So I think it depends on the country, I was at Uni in the UK and I saw tons of parents smoking next to their children but I don't know what other people were thinking about that there.

[@BeaA.26]

As an European, you learn where the free clean public toilets are 😂. Also, we don't really drink from Starbucks because in most countries coffee is much cheaper than that of Starbucks. Like in Portugal (my country), an expresso is about 60 cents. About the sex culture, I think it depends on the country and the circumstances you're at. For example, in Portugal you have specific beaches where you can be naked 🙃 but people are still very conservative about other stuff. It all depends where you are and who you are with.

[@lauryn2868]

O comentário que eu estava à procura, concordo muito com o que disseste e eu acredito que a parte de nós sermos mais conservadores é por causa da religião a maioria dos portugueses são católicos e a religião sempre foi muito importante em Portugal, só mais recentemente é que as pessoas começaram a ser mais abertas a coisas que antigamente eram muito mal vistas, e nós ainda temos um longo caminho pela frente

Ma sì ma porcozzio sono dei dementi, ma da che mondo è mondo se uno ti accoglie mezzo nudo è considerabile un'usanza o una cosa tipicamente europea? Forse lo giustificano per la maggiore disinibizione e minor senso del pudore rispetto all'Asia... ma il discorso non regge. Cioè se io vado in un posto in Corea, fai alla sera, e mi accoglie il proprietario ciucco o comunque brillo per il Soju che ha bevuto al bancone... non vado a pensare a chissà quale motivo legato alla loro cultura, dico "bon, cavoli suoi, mi ha dato le chiavi ha fatto il check in, stop", magari me la sghignazzo ma...

[@jayc1139]

It might have something to do with Mongolia. The winds in the Mongolian desert sometimes kicks up a lot of dust which drifts into China, the Koreas, and Japan...causing air quality to drop and the sky to be kind of hazey and orange looking. Might also explain why East Asians tend to be more 'open' to mask policies and advisories, since they wear them for air quality too.

@@Surftouka guess you are the romantical type then? Because I like a bit of romance but watching some Korean dramas it got boring for me too. It's not that I need all that nakedness, even though I don't mind, but Korean dramas seemed very inauthentic. Or maybe I watched the wrong ones. But I definitely don't need a kiss from a 360° angle, in slow motion on top and the amount that Korean woman trip and fall is really unhealthy ;-)

[@RoxanneLavender]

If my room-mate here in England walked out of his room totally naked i would move out instantly, that's so inappropriate. Walking out wearing just underwear is fine i guess, but we're not all walking with our genitals out for everyone to gawk at and be uncomfortable.

Something that many people outside of Europe don't realize, is that within the European countries there are many cultural differences. For example is like comparing Asian countries, of course most of them have some basic similarities, but in the end the difference between them is quite great!

[@brownie3275]

Europe is such a small continent but maybe the richest when it comes to culture. It's amazing how different north and south are (e.g., UK and Spain), east and west (e.g, Russia and Germany), etc. And also within each country, there are different cultures (e.g., in UK - English, Scottish, Irish, Welsh). I mean even looking at the Balkans for example (where I live), we always say most of us are the same people (Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia, Croatia) and we do culturally have so so many common things (customs, language, music...), but we also differ in many aspects. So to fully grasp ''European culture'', you would need to travel to each and every country.

For Spaniards, Starbucks is a useless luxury, too expensive and tasteless for us. We usually love our local cafes cause we have a relationship with them, it's much more intimate to go drink coffee at a friend's shop than a random chain where you don't even know the owner. In Spain we love coffee and the cafe itself plays an important role in our culture, being most of the times our first choice for a friends gathering.

[@eirhnhknknkn5519]

In greece its exactly the same. We judge hard anyone who goes to starbucks. We may take our morning ong the go coffe(before work, school) from a chain(but never starbucks, greek chains) but we hang out in local cafes . The minimun is 2hours and the maximum about 5 hrs.

[@janelc1843]

same for France, maybe in big cities they sometimes drink Starbucks but honestly why would we chose that ? since you can find cheaper and way more tasteful coffees in small cafes (I mean, idk I don't like coffee lol, but that's what I was told)

[@Niki91-HR]

We in Croatia have a great coffee culture too and as far as I know we dont even have Starbucks....it would fail horribly and go bankrupt xD Having coffee with friends, family and colleagues is an "event" and it cant be under an hour...mostly it is about 2 hours hahahaahh

[@skarbuskreska]

In Germany it's maybe half and half for big cities. You will find Starbucks, but it's usually a choice for young people or tourists. Our normal cafes are also not as personal as they are in the South I guess. I personally never liked the usual German coffee, which is just hot water rinsed over the milled coffe aka black water. Only when the French/Italian kind of coffee came around with Cappucino, Latte, Espresso etc. which is made under pressure in proper machines I started to drink it. I don't even need the caffeine, It's just for the taste.

Actually, the majority of the Italians usually prefer Spain as a travel destination, as it's a lot similar to Italy than northern countries f.e., and Italians usually are not too much into trying new things, unfortunately 😅...

Usually, big chain places like Starbucks, Cost, and so on have shity coffee... and people that drink coffee actually drink it to enjoy the "art of coffee". So they go to small private places that have special coffee from around the world brewed corectly, it's like wine, complex and in different variations and there is an art to it. Also, people that know about coffee, prefer it without sugar and black. But I noticed that in Korea people don't know about this stuff generally and they drink coffee as they drink juice, just randomly and at any hour of the day or night.

[@biankabicskei1800]

I agree. In a lot of European countries drinking coffee is like a little ritual or a follow up after lunch in restaurants. Also conferences and seminars have so called "coffee breaks".

In England it's more about the random rain, so we're not always carrying an umbrella around with us. But, there is a wind issue at least 50% of the time here, the little umbrellas just break, or you have to lug around one of those long ones.

[@Paula-bg3to]

I live at the baltic coast so it is very unusual that it's not windy. I never had an umbrella until I was 22 when one of my coworkers gifted one to me when I moved to Hamburg, where it is not really windy at least compared to living directly at the sea.

[@inesramalho5644]

The thing about paying for toilets is that usually free toilets in very crowded places tend to be very dirty, so, when you find a toilet that you need to pay for you know it will be clean, nothing will be broken, and you'll find both toilet paper and soap inside... However, the best way of going to a toilet is going inside a coffee shop and ask - usually, if you're polite, they'll let you use it free of charge, or, at worse, you buy a water bottle or an expresso on your way out, and in Portugal (where I'm from), an expresso costs like 65cents, maximum. So it definitely beats a free public toilet with dirty floors and broken sinks...

Don't get me wrong, I love the South and my bff is from there, but it really feels like a whole other country to me. In my region we have a different dialect, a different accent, different food, different sense of humour, we are not as loud and not as welcoming with strangers. we even have our own language (not Italian) that Southerners can't understand and vice versa.

There are at least 50 countries that are considered part of Europe and it's a bit... to portray these things as pan-European. Neither of them had been to Northern or Eastern European countries. But it was a fun vid.

[@linad015]

A thing I think most foreigners struggle with when they go to more northern European countries like Sweden (where I'm from) is that the sun in the summer time sets really late, like around 10pm. And it never gets truly dark. There is also the midnight sun waay up north when the sun doesn't set at all.

[@SofiaFondo]

8:10 As a Spanish, I think it's necessary to clarify something about Siesta. In other countries, they used this cliche against us to call Spanish lazy people. But in the summer, when it's really hot weather, people need to stop in the hotter hours of the day. So it's very usual, that shops are closed that hours and streets are empty. However, shops are open until 22:00 h.

I live in Romania and there aren't many shops here which are closed on Sunday, you can order anything from pretty much anywhere too. There are businesses that do food or online shopping deliveries every day, like Glovo or FoodPanda. I've been to Italy (specifically Pisa) and I can confirm most businesses are closed on Sunday, we had to buy more food on Friday or Saturday so we wouldn't starve in weekends. I have never seen anyone greeting guests wearing only underwear, or nude, that is not normal. The only place where nudity is normal is the nude beach.

In Italy too, I don't understand why she said that... it's always wrong to generalize, especially in Europe, I live in the north (maybe she lived in a town of South Italy... dunno) n a little city of 30.000 citizens... we have some supermarkets even open 7 days/7 from 9.00 to 20:00 without a break, yes, there are some marts that are closed at 12:30 and re-opened in the afternoon at 15...but usually they aren't totally closed on Sunday, they are open only in the morning, let's say from 8:30 to 12:30. :o

I think it’s also interesting to compare the drinking culture. Compared to Korea where you’re allowed to drink at the age of 21, in Germany we‘re allowed to drink and buy beer at the age of 16, it’s the same with wine. At the age of 18, we can buy other drinks like whiskey etc. But a lot of people start drinking the heavier stuff when they’re much younger and even kids sometimes get to take a sip of their parents‘ beer, but just to taste it though!

Rather than coffee with ice, try asking for cold coffee. A lot of people have it in summer when it's really hot in the south. It's supposed to be coffee with ice but many times it's just sweetened coffee put in the fridge so it's not diluted (and very strong. I don't recommend it at night)

I'm from Northern Europe and when I'm in Italy it feels like being in a dysfunctional, chaotic banana republic just with stunning architecture, food and scenery. Spain is more organised, but still pretty crazy in many aspects. Southern Europe is the region that is the most polar opposite to South Korea in most ways, with Northern Europe being the most similar. Things are more organised and people are more reserved, more like in South Korea.

The UK is the most watched country in terms of CCTV. In London, you will be spotted by an average of 300 CCTV cameras per day.

Opening hours on Sundays are different in every country. However, a good rule of thumb is that catholic countries are more likely to have stores closed on Sundays and holidays, whereas protestant countries are less likely.

An Americano is the hot drink. What they're talking about is an iced Americano. Here in New Zealand there are "some" Starbucks but there's a strong coffee culture, especially here in Wellington so the locals generally don't go there. Maybe if they want one of the flavoured ones or something. The coffee of choice here is a "flat white" which is a double shot espresso with steamed milk but very little foam. Less foam than a latte.
