Exchange Student

Hej everybody!

Yesterday a new exchange student from England came to Austria. We welcomed him and we are really good buddies now. I can say that he speaks very good English and he knows a bit about the German vocabulary.

he has some stereotypes about Austria and sometimes they were funny. He asked me how the Austrian people could watch ski on the television instead of football or ice hockey. He often said that Austrian people are very punctual. My opinion was the same. He noticed the 'Austrian-German' and said that the people in Germany speak so much clearer. 
Tomatoes and potatoes translated in the German what austrians speak mean ,Paradeiser' and 'Erdäpfel'.
We may not forget about the 'Sacher Torte' and 'Apfelstrudel'. Therefore Austrians have always time for coffee and a good pie.
It is not so difficult to learn these things. Every culture has its different stereostypes. 
So we all have much to learn! :)
