Germany, 25. Always driven manual, don't even know how to drive automatic.
Lol I think you'd manage.
It can be more confusing than you think at first, all the N/D/L stuff, some then also have 1/2/3, which "gear" to you start the car in, what to do when you come to a full stop (nothing, doh), ...
The very first time I sat behind one was to drive a family friend home who drunk a bit too much, with his own car... I was a bit overwhelmed
Don't forget the good old mistake of hitting the brake when searching for the clutch pedal (though that only happend to me once as I drove automatic the first time)
