The Difference Between a Chinese and a German Sunbath

Have you ever wondered what’s the difference between a German and a Chinese sunbath? I haven’t. But I got to find out nonetheless. These last couple of days as I was sitting out in the sun trying to work on assignments. I got to find out that enjoying a sunbath in China, it takes a whole day to get somewhat of a slight tan (usually; and I’d be the exception to sit out in the sun anyways, since most Chinese would avoid the sun as hell in order to maintain a light color of skin). In Germany, however, I’d be fried red as a lobster within the first two hours of sitting in the sun. So, note to self: stay out of the sun if you don’t like lobster fashion!

Italian Ice Cream the German Way

In case you haven’t heard of it yet, there’s something to Italian ice cream in Germany. Whether the old Romans know how to make a lot of things or not, one thing’s for sure: they definitely do know how to make good ice cream. The yummy way, that is. The delicious looking way. The extravagant way. So, before my cow-milking Canadian squirrel friend is heading out soon, I needed to take him out for the experience. And boy, did we indulge ourselves in the occasion. So much so, that – in spite of the deliciousness – we were struggling to finish the ice cream spectacular.
