what I learned about GERMANY | living abroad

At 0:34 is poeple a typo or is it some reference I don't get? Either way great work like always loved the entire video

My German Professor had our class watch this video for an assignment to open us up to exploring German culture. Honestly I LOVED watching this video!

this is the best video about germany on the internet

Großartiges video! One thing, the word "Lebensmüde" is actually more commonly used to describe people who do extremely dangerous activites such as climbing very tall buildings without safety gear.

"that one thing"😅 brilliant. Love your humor.

Correction about the Tag der Einheit: it is not about the fall of the wall (which was 9.11.1989) but the official reunification at the 3rd October 1990. The reason for that is that for some reason many other important events took place at the 9th November, like the beginning of the Weimar Republic 1918, the Bierhallen/Hitler-Ludendorff Putsch 1923 or the pogroms in 1938, which are not that fitting for a national holidy. Also there are other interesting things that happened that day, like Napoleon taking power in 1799, the abdication of the last shogun in 1867, the independence of Cambodia from France in 1953 or, for more german history, the death of Holger Meins in 1974.

I went to Euro Disney many years ago and made up a game of "guess the nationality" where I would look at someone and try to figure out which country they were from. Lines (queues) were very helpful here. English people would be super patient and would let more aggressive people cut in line in front of them. The people cutting in line were almost always German, mostly teenagers. From a few visits to Germany, it seems like there are enormous variations in behavior between different regions. In Bavaria, people seem very relaxed. In some other regions, people are more likely to yell at you for no obvious reason.

I recently moved to Trier and I was so happy to recognize the city just from a pharmacy and a bakery. It was great to see how you see Germany and Trier as well. 😍

When I was little, my father was stationed at the Flint Kaserne in Bad Tolz. I lived there from Kindergarten to 5th grade. I love Baveria! When I was older, we lived in Frankfurt. I didn't get to see much of it though.

This is a nice summary! (a comment from a German guy). Would have been also worth to mention: The number and quality of museums, the wide variety of landscape (Alps over Heide to Halligen), the miserable weather in Winter (gray and drizzling rain on end) and the lesser things, like the voluntary fire-brigade system, the Kur (a Spa system for health recovery paid by the health insurance, which only exists in Germany and Czeko), the habit of playing cards in a pub for small amounts of money (but not gambling), ... and a few other things.

11:30 What a nice choice of letters and numbers 😄

Your videos are amazing to explore Germany online🤩I enjoyed it

Looking at this for my next week visa appointment

20+C+M+B+22 the number from the start and end of the line represents the current year. CMB means Christ bless our home and also has different interpretations but the easiest explanation is the one I explained. Hope it helps.

Your videos are always amazing. I loved the slight dig at the train system 😂

I loved this video, since it gave me a bigger view of Germany! In two months I’m flying there and I’m so excited :)

I was stationed in Germany in the 70s & loved every second of my time there, great people with a sardonic sense of humour , i could wax lyrical about the food & nightlife but i'd be on here all day lol BTW love your post

I admire the culture of the Germans and the Nordic volk. The discipline and law obedience.

i like the high density of random trivia. really nice. the cinema one was a bit weird, like as if german dub goes off do its own thing, but otherwise rly enjoyed it.

AND with that video you made me 100% wanna go to Germany thanks <3
