I am an American, after all, and never actually been to Europe (though Scandinavian by blood) As for thinking Germany was Northern European- you can blame the lousy US educational system for that one 1.74m- that's about 5 foot 8 inches, right?

... I have lived in the USA for a year, I never got the hang of the measurements there :D So I don't know ^^ Funnily, I found a lot of people in the US to believe the weather in Germany to be much colder than it is. During a blizzard (!) in NYC someone tried to convince me the weather in Germany was basically Siberia :D

sometimes a few extra cm would do me good. There are a number of things that are just out of my reach, which is annoying. Then again, I'm neither tall nor short for a woman and as a rider I benefit from not being either extreme. I can ride a 1.35m pony just the same as a 1.75m horse.

I'm about 6'1 (female) and I'd love to be much, much shorter. I hate being tall. I keep bumping my head everywhere and there's never enough leg room in planes, or trains, or buses. And finding trousers that are the right size? Forget about it.

but sometimes it would be nice to be a bit taller.. My husband and sons are a lot taller than I am and that's so much easier in a crowd.
