1 Is Patricia really nice?
2 Am I so ugly?
3 Was it because of my t-shirt with the text 'I'm no tourist, I live here!'?

I have to say Germans are really peculiar (nobody should get offended, please..) they're really different, I recognize them among other northern European!! Dutch are really nice, they're polite and they always come with caravans and the whole family!! (...a lot of bicycles...)

150 km/h ?? wow.... 120 km/h in the Netherlands...

(i usually do so the drivers of the cars behind me, who are probably angry with me already, get even more pissed off )
Besides, I have an old pink paper license, like this one. Finnish and Swedish are missing, although those countries were already EU members when I made my license.
When I was in Italy, I was amazed by the car drivers stopping at the pedestrian crossings to let me cross!
