Reoccurring themes in Europe.

As you can imagine, Europe is slowly blending in. Here is what I've realised about Europe in general and how different it is to home.

Windows are double glazed. Doesn't matter where, they're doubled glazed. The new windows are great as they actually come onwards at the top, the opposite to home where the wind from the bottom.

The backwards toilet. Omfg. This is horrible.

The bath shower thing. Not sure how people are so used to it because I find it disgusting. Not as bad as the backward toilet.

Paying for toilets. Wow okay. Woah. Chillax people. I've never seen so much piss around a city where you have to pay for a toilet.

Homeless people and beggars. Yeah most cities have them. It's amazing how they're not in some places you'd think they could do better, but in random cities you'd never expect them.

English music. It's everywhere. English is so widely spoken that it amazes me how it's a truly international language.

Hot air balloons. Not sure why, but almost every city I've been to recently has one. Hamburg, Prague, Krakow.

The power outlets charge up SO damn fast. I love it. It takes half the time to charge my laptop or phone than it does at home.

Lack of smiles. Not sure why, but not many seem to smile. Cheer up, the wars are over.

The wars! Woah. I never knew how much of a badass Hitler was. No joke, all I hear about in every country is how Hitler and Neapolitan just walked in and took over the country. Obviously one was worse than the other, but that's a different story. So when we see how each was berried, one is in a massive tomb, the other is in an unknown location. Some people get what they deserve.

Oh the lovers locks. Everywhere. The first I saw was in Paris. Ever since then I've seen bridges and even monuments with locks on them. There's one in every city and I'm not exaggerating that.
