Karl,

I know how difficult it is for British English people to speak German and Dutch so, this British fellow for an Englishman, knew how to interview people despite his English accent and failures in German. I have to say compared to Dutch and Flemish Belgian people speaking about each other, the Germans and Austrians were quite mild in their opinion about the others, accept the 'Mocking Austrian' boy who said that Austrians are more beautiful than Germans, which is not true I can tell you. Austrians are more Alpine type people with more Brunette people, and the North Germans are more blond and tall. I don't know if the Austrians are more direct like the Dutch people like the Austrian lady said. It is true though that Dutch and Danish people in my opinion and experience are more direct than Germans and Poles. Poles maybe due to their past are more distrustful and a little bit distancing in the beginning when you meet them. For me a few times contact with Poles was difficult and rather stubborn. My Dutch directness didn't work with them. With some Germans it didn't worked either.
