If I was to describe my homeland and its people I would use the adjective “Freundlich”. I am proud to be an Australian for its open minded, warm, fun and friendly culture. The working culture is characterised by a “work hard, play hard” sentiment but we generally love to be hospitable, engaging in social circles and making outsiders feel welcome. How would you describe your culture? Most commonly used adjectives I have learned are: warm, kalt, stark, groß, klein, einfach, schon, heiß. Here is a picture I took in the last week of my time in Sydney before moving to Munich. I would describe the culture and environment as “warm und freundlich.”
