Claro que a cultura alemã é diferente da portuguesa, mas não faz mal nenhum perceber o que se passa por lá, para prevenir o que se possa passar por cá. Não esquecer que uns ficam de calças na mão a perguntar: O que se passou?. Outros, olham ao longe e perguntam: O que é que pode vir aí?
"In Mitte, one of the German capital’s trendiest neighbourhoods, where thrift shops jostle for space with tech start-ups and glitzy boutiques, the streets were eerily empty. Most stores were still shut, and those that were open were largely devoid of customers.

“Our sales will collapse,” said Chantal Frohnhoefer, manager of Macchina Caffe, a small shop selling espresso machines. “No one really wants to go shopping right now.
