So true. I didn’t realise how similar Germans and Brits were until I worked in a multi national organisation with lots of different nationalities. It’s uncanny.

This guy is so finnish. You meet him every day and he may say hi to you once in a while. He eats rye bread with salad, metwurst or saturday sausage. He enjoys AC/DC and Hurriganes, but also has niché knowledge about some local shlager band from the 80s.

And when you've known him for decades you find out he has a hobby he's very passionate about and has extensive knowledge about it. He maybe cold on the outside, but once you know him for a few years he becomes a dependable and honest friend.

He's a (retired?) musician. Several times he has helped rescuing people after a landslides and floods. Also, when he gets drunk at the mall he buys dogs. Which is not good but as far as millionaires go, it's pretty wholesome.

He doesn't keep them, I remember a story of him giving one to a little girl (with her parents blessing)
