Germans Are Really Nice: Part 3

Part 3:
On my way to the Reichstag, which is the parliament building which has amazing architecture, I was sniffling a lot. I sniffling on the U-Bahn when this one German girl sitting near me got up, said something to me in German, smiled, and gave me a tissue. I replied with danke and was truly grateful. So once again, Germans are really nice. Who says Germans are cold and stoic? Within my first 3 days in Germany, and 3 encounters with very nice Germans, this stereotype had proven to be nothing more than a stereotype. And throughout my time here, I've met many more Germans, all of whom have been caring, interesting, fun, and in general, have broken all stereotypes of how Germans are supposed to be.
