Germans have what I would call "old lady curtains," or lacy, frilly, white affairs that I thought young people had put up out of kindness to their generous grandmothers.
The white lace lets the sunshine in. We lived in Bremerhaven, and the sky was darker than we were accustomed to, so real drapes would dampen the ambient lighting.
The purpose of this blog is to handle all the interesting comparisons I've made between American and German culture as I've been living in Germany. Expatriate life is fascinating. I love, love, love, love, love Germany, German, and Germans!
If you have a question about Germany that I haven't posted about, leave a comment with your website or email address and I'll contact you ASAP.

We don't like them, too. But our Grannys FORCE us to do that, believe me!!!
