I've spent 3 years in Japan, 4 years in the UK, and a year in Korea. For me it was how incredibly rude everyone is. Sure I encountered rude people in other countries, but it's on another level here. Also, there are so many bad drivers that drive so confidently here.

I’m in Germany and recently visited the US again. I was struck by the politeness, lol
