CW: american privilege

Also doing a bit of Amsterdam and Paris. Not an ideal time with COVID, I know, but... its probably never gonna be a better time, either.

Experiences? Things to try? Avoid?

Hoping to get a feel for every day life in Germany. Don't care too much tourist stuff. First time over the pond, so looking to soak in as much "non-american" stuff as possible.

    If you can, stay away from cities with US military postings or stay as far away as you can from the military presence. We tended to overrun bars and clubs on the regular and our shit baggery probably will have put the locals on edge when anybody that sounds like a Yank is around.

    I only spent time in Bamberg, but it was an interesting mix of old as fuck buildings/parts of the city mixed with modern builds and modern renovations. I'm not a religious person but there were a few old churches with reliquaries, that was kinda neat to see.

      the fact that amerikkka has military presence in the jewel of the european crown, itself a white supremacist imperial power, is wild. says alot about society the reason the US decided to swoop in at the last minute of WWII
