In Scandinavian countries, the minimum (by law) is 20 to 25 days of paid time off per year. That's on top of public holidays. I must say my vacations feel highly realistic

That's true for the entire EU too. The minimum is 20, or slightly above that.

Pretty common in Germany are 30 days.
Yep. The minimum is 20 days (for a five day work week) but most people get 25 to 30 days. That's on top of 10-13 public holidays, and sick days.
Moreover, taking sick days is normalised and you will not be punished for it unless you abuse it. If you take below 30 sick days a year, you're likely safe.
My job is to help people settle in Germany. I struggle to communicate how chill German work culture is.
