Hi guys, where I can get the newest from Malaga and your way to settle in? You did such a nice job with your vlogs about Leipzig…. do you continue with Malaga? And if yes, please add RUclips-link as answer to this comment….

Always enjoyed watching the videos. I hope you are doing well in southern Spain

I am struggling to choose between Leipzig, Freiburg im Breigau, Karlsruhe, Konstanz or Munich. More so Leipzig and Freiburg im Breisgau. I work in IT and speak a good amount of German. I feel like in Freiburg there would be less jobs there though. I feel like I would become bored in Freiburg Im Breisgau even though it is pretty and close to nature. I don't plan on going hiking every single day or weekend. Not sure what to choose.

Now do from below!

Ich bin wieder ein kleines Kind, und wenn ich in die Stadt gehe, ist das so, als würde man spielen, und das Weihnachtsessen ist eine Ratte, die über einem Kamin sitzt. Ich erinnere mich, dass es Tischreihen und eine Hierarchie der Sitzplätze gab, weil ich nie am Kindertisch vorbeikam, der ganz am Ende, fast in der Küche, als Kartentisch diente. Trotzdem war die gebratene Ratte immer noch lecker. Dazu gab es meist Kartoffelpuffer. Mein Onkel sorgte dafür, dass alle Kinder zwei Schuss Schnaps bekamen. Oh, das gute Leben!

You shouldn't compare Kindergarten / Kintertagesstätte to the US-kindergarden, than to the education pre school. In Germany there was or is sometimes also a Vorschule (pre-school) if a kid enter elementary school, but is not fit for it know, they sometimes go into the Vorschule for one year. As the name kindergarden was taken over into English, they might have taken over the concept of protected flourishing, rather than started teaching them in a school. An the kind of Kindergarten before school is the standard way in most parts of Europe.

What the hell is an expat?! I never hear that word in American TV, news or politics.. I hear the word immigrant and the word alien a lot but I guess these are for a different species of humans, not noble americans

Someone who does not want to go to Berlin or Munich. Leipzig is really beautiful.

MJ _ We are Christians in the US (wife is a German citizen) looking towards moving to Leipzig. What church were you working at there? We’d love to visit it.

Love your content MJ! It's been super helpful. We are heading to Leipzig in July/August and wondering if you have any recommendations for quieter, nature-connected neighborhoods with good transport links for accommodation? Any advice would be awesome! 🥰

You have to visit a real club with tradition in Germany and crazy fans as well. I still liked your video, but please give it a try! Fuxk Redbull

This was such a great video of Regensburg. I’ve never been there. My mom was from this city. I wondered a great deal about the outskirts I the countryside.

Thank you so much for this video I have clients heading there soon for heritage and genealogy. So helpful

I was there in October of 23 with my son-in-law. Then off to Regensburg for lunch.

Visited Dresden twice an amazing city very beautiful and asthetic.for the Christmas market 2023 for 2 nights on the way back from Berlin it's beautiful around Christmas and last month on my way the way to Prague stayed a night loved it. The Zwinger palace is gorgeous the art galley tour and the Elbe river cruise. Would visit again it's a baroque gem which one can combine traveling with other great cities close by like Prague, Berlin, Leipzig, wroclaw.

BMW has a factory in Regensburg.

Yeah I never really understood why Americans never go outside even though they have much much more beautiful Countryside. The Countryside in the US alone is probably 10x bigger than all of Germany 😂

Thanks for the perspective, Hope you like germany <3

Very good 👍👍👍 ser 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Moving to Leipzig in 3 weeks. Would love to meet fellow Americans!

Would love trade place with u. My city always have sunshine and hot as hell. I love gloomy dark grey cold weather everyday

Have you been brushing up on your German language?

You’ll never have an aithentic Silvester experience without letting go of your safe space lol

Regnet es viel in Regensburg ?

I completely understand why you felt Leipzig is just right for you. I almost moved there too after I visited Leipzig a few years in a row. Who knows, maybe one day :) Enjoy my favorite German city :))

Hello! I live in Texas, but am considering a move to Leipzig or Spain. We are a family of 6, as well. Our allergies and my asthma have made living here in TX not an option. How are the environmental/seasonal allergies in Leipzig and Malaga?

Donners❤

I think bamberg is so beatiful lets bring freedim there

Let's connect! I'm looking at several cities for my move to Germany, and Leipzig is in my top 5!

Ver el museo Picasso entre otros muchos museos el genio Español nacio alli en Malaga situado en un esplendido palacio del siglo 16.

I feel sorry for the children who are dragged from one place to another and constantly lose their social circle. It's like a child who moves 10 times during their childhood. Somehow always there but still not belonging. You don't do that with your children. As a parent, I would be ashamed to do something like that to my children. It's your choice to live this way, ok, but forcing it on your children is wrong!

You will definitely have much better weather and more blue skies there, not to mention the amazing beaches and landscape! Good luck to you and your beautiful family!

I worked in the residence and castle, they want you to buy their albums n such. that's why there is no filming allowed. When I was on duty and no supervisors around I did let the ppl take photos ;). Sorry to everyone I had to reprimand for it, but it was required as employee. And as a person that walked every time to it, when on duty in the castle. I can recommend, you walk from the base of it after crossing the bridge over the main river. because you will walk through the old defensive posts and walls and looks really cool with great views^^. And I think on a few weeks in the year the one defensive tower next to the vinyards on the opposite side of the castle and attached secret defense path is open to the public to visit. Its a few € but you can go up the tower and walk all the way through the mountain into the castle :). Oh and important: Please don't think you are sly and hide when the castle closes and hide. You will get locked in! A collegue and me had to close up and accidentally locked a few tourists out there on the walls. They had to yell for help and were lucky the curator living there heard them at 3 AM. And we got in trouble :( Also did you guys visit the crypts in the Dom? There you can see the alleged bones of St. Kilian :)

So or whats up............. no thanks, I'm off

Wow! This is very surprising news for me and I hope you enjoy your new life in Spain 🎉

So sad to see you go, but we wish you all the best. Malaga sounds lovely.

dont go for visa... go for asyl.. way easier to stay in germoney... enjoy spain.. weather might be better there :)

All the best on your new adventure as a family. I definitely believe in where God leads - you go! I found your channel because our family is possibly moving to Leipzig come the new year (if it’s the Lord’s Will) so thank you for all that you shared! Very helpful content.

I hope your children transition well. Learning a new language again. Make friends and new memories there.

I wish that you have also a wonderfull and succesfull time over there as you had here. and i hope that the transition to new schools and friends etc.etc. goes well for the kids. i´m sure they know what a big advantage it is to see so many colours god`s rainbow at this young age! Good luck to all of you from Michael/Hannover

Sad to see you go, but I wish you all the best.

Sad, but still all good luck and hoping you will enjoy occasional visits to Germany, e.g. in the summer if it gets too hot in Malaga, or for the Christmas market...

Was für ein Abstieg. Ich verstehe das nicht, kaum beherrschen die Kinder die Sprache richtig wird geflüchtet. Eine große Stadt, wo man mit 4 Kindern schon richtig was hinblättern muss, ist auch nicht wirklich weise als Start in einem neuen Land. Naja, you learned the hard way.

I understand your decisions, but this is not healthy for your kids. Leaving their new friends behind... again! Learning another language... again! Anyway, all the best!

Congrats on the move. Barometric pressure changes can have notable impact on some people’s health.

Hi, I wish you all the best in your phase of life! Good luck! I often hear that the bureaucracy is so difficult, especially in East German cities, especially Berlin etc. This usually works better in small towns, see @Type Ashton, who moved from Freiburg to a small town and built a house. Thank you and greetings from Lake Constance 🙋‍♂️

Sad to have you leave, but I wish you all the best for your new adventure 🤝🏼

Hi MJ! Been watching your videos for the past couple of weeks and found your channel so helpful for a family possibly moving to Leipzig too. I do have a question for you, you and your wife mentioned church and community. As a family not knowing anyone (family or friends there) where did you start to meet people and make these friendships? It’s also important for our family to settle into a great, sound, church so if you have any recommendations I’d appreciate that! Warm regards, Ellie

Great that you did this video whilst on an ICE-journey Yes, the ICE might be a little late at times, but as soon as one has boarded, the ride is awesome. It will get one into most European downtowns. I love DB, despite the delays... as if a 15 minute delay changes ones life!❤😂
