The church tax mystifies me, but I think other European countries have similar, e.g. Denmark. I was under the impression that most people did pay it, but that was probably 20 years ago.I work there and see some things I don't like.
Some people still feel obliged to pay the church tax, which is a lot.
The food is not great.
I'm in the south west where the weather is supposedly the best in Germany. But it's still not good enough.
I worked near Hamburg for a while, and the food was very good. The weather was grim, hot and humid in the summer, very cold and/or very wet in the winter.
The other thing that struck me was the army of drug addicts that congregated at main railway stations, worse than anything I'd seen in the UK.
