Things I hate about living in Marburg

So, here it is, a post about hatred.

I write this as a person who ever lived in three different countries: Indonesia, as my hometown. Japan, for almost a year. Germany, my current home. So, comparing those countries is somehow inevitable during my 9-month stay in Marburg. Mostly about bus and supermarket things.
  1. When people say that the buses and the trains in Germany (Marburg, in particular) are always on time, let me assure you: they are lying. They are not always on time, which is obviously OK because shits happen, right? But unlike in Japan, there is no apology.
  2. The people is so loud. They talk to each other. They shout at their friends. They talk on the phone and laugh, even sometimes, they fight. I ever been in a train in which there were some group of people sang a long in the whole trip. Anyway, this is not really a bad thing because it is also nice seeing the interaction between people, sometimes.
  3. The bus stops and the stations are dirty and not a free-smoking area.
  4. The chairs looks dirty as well. I sometimes sit in a dried bubble gum -____-
  5. The shopping baskets are most of the time dirty
  6. No fresh fish. Vegetables are sold in large amount. They sell rotten fruits. The eggs are dirty (well, I miss the clean eggs sold in Japan)
  7. Not really friendly. Typical German.
  8. Some of them smell real bad.



..it might be continued later.
