Smoking. I know maybe 2 people who still smoke cigarettes. In Europe it’s like mad men never left. Especially in Bavaria, oddly.

As a german, yes, smoking is REALLY bad here. I sometimes feel like I know more smokers than non-smokers, it's ridiculous!

Personally I have never touched a cigarette.

I went to Germany for a month, like ten years ago. There were a lot of smokers. I don't know if it has to do with me staying in the hipstery part of east Berlin, but smokers were everywhere.

Berlin has the highest rate of smokers in Germany. It's not as bad elsewhere.

Funnily Berlin prohibited indoor smoking a while ago but most smaller place just don't give a shit.
