I agree with most things said in the video but the thing about bottled water is kind of nonsense. I've been in many European countries and lived in a couple, and the only places where I didn't drink the tap water was in Bulgaria and Russia, as far as Russia is Europe. I assume more Eastern European countries have this, but in North/West/Southern Europe you can drink the tap water perfectly fine. In Italy it had a quirky taste but it was still fine

. most of the poeple in Europe do not drink their tap water, they buy bottled water. This is of course complete horseshit. This is actually true for the US. Tap water tastes terrible in the US, near undrinkable bitter, chemical taste, can't even make proper soup wiht it. In most of Europe tap water is just as refreshing and sweet as bottled water. and btw most of the bottled water in Euorpe is actual mineral water, not just 'regular water' bottled.

The credit card information that you can't pay everywhere in Europe is wrong. You can pay almost in all places just Europe is on that more technologically advanced and in 99% they use cards with Chips in the card so you confirm payment by your PIN if this is small amount you can pay contactless. Regarding tips you don't tip for Taxi. However tip in restaurants is 10-15%.

Wille be hard to exchange Money in Swedish banks nowdays, 2021, as almost no bank offices handels cash as they are cashless sadly not even swedish crowns can be withdrawn inside the banks anymore. Exchange can be done but you have to place an order for it and pick it up like 1 week later. Thats the new swedish cashless world that we sadly have

9: 10 my tap water taste 100 times better than Vittel, Evian and every other water except Black Forest water. That shit is next level, but its good, its clean and you dont destroy the environment with unnecessary plastic water bottles.

Curious, what aloud you to start traveling so much before this? Are you able to work from home/anywhere with WiFi? Love your videos, its weird seeing the older ones. You always look so different compared to your newer ones. Safe travels

When I upped people in London they seemed surprised. The waiter told me that the staff will split it (he would not get the whole thing) almost as if to tell me not to tip. Of course I tipped and always tip in europe.

The tab water hint was kinda wrong. Norway, sweden, Finland, Germany, Iceland, Denmark you can drink it and it is much better than shitty plastic bottled water. Southern and eastern europe can be different

In North/West Europe (Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland, Denmark, Germany and the Netherlands) tapwater is very good, especially in the Netherlands, which has the best drinking water in the world.
