My trip was horrible

• I went to Germany with an open mind thinking all that I heard about the people of Germany were stereotypes. I met many friendly and kind people, no doubt, so I would not want to tarnish the name of German folk, especially since in every country you have good and bad apples. However, I will never go back. I was traveling with children and in a rush to catch the train back to Litchenstein and thus, forgot to get our ticket for the metro. I thought, it was possible to pay a premium once on the train, as we do in the States if you do not have time to get your ticket. Well, I was mistaken. It was a huge hurrah. "40 euros" screamed a gentlemen. Who manhandled me all the way to the cash machine until I paid him. I was uncertain of the procedure and a bit scared, and as I tried to explain to him that I would just like to go to the ticket office to pay my premium, he screamed at my children and I. I was shaking and terrified and never in my life treated this way, all for a forgotten train ticket. I understand that this could be an isolated case, however, because of my experience and treatment, I will never spend money or visit that country again. It was too traumatizing over a mistake and small infraction.
