A3. My advice is to not tip for the #whale in #Iceland. In fact, don’t even buy it. You should be ashamed of yourself for even considering it. What were you thinking?

A4 The brewing culture has a long tradition in Thuringia! You find a wide selection from dark and wheat beer to fine Pilsner style beer. Enjoy your favorite in one of the atmospheric beer-gardens! #visitthuringia #TravelSkills

Q3 Just round up to the nearest euro. Maybe add a bit more if you’ve had exceptional service.

A3. Tipping in Europe is different from the US. I often leave a few coins behind. It's a good deed plus you can't exchange them in; only bills. #travelskills

A4. I know I’m supposed to say #Germany here (sorry @GermanyTourism!) and they do have great #beer. But my favorite is @Tuborg’s #Julebryg #Christmasbeer, so I’m going with #Denmark on this one.

Best European country for beer? Definitely Germany for beer. Not a fan of Belgian-style. Sorry. Tough to argue with France for wine. I like the variety more than Italy. Plus Champagne is WAY better than Prosecco. A4 #TravelSkills @GoVisitGermany @GermanyTourism
