Dear Brianna, you're doing fine. Don't worry about your language skills. Take your time. To show you that it is possible, you might want to check laurenangela6749's channel and her video "How I Learned GERMAN while living in Germany"

While some Germans want to go to canada smh

Love from Calif

What is with Your Love? Is this Man gone? Are You now allone? To make Friends in Germany, you must go in a Verein like ab Club for Sport, Dancing, Singing or better a Kirchengemeine a Church as Batisten or Christliches-Zentrum there a many young open hearted People.

Maybe you should subscribe to YT channel Life in Germany (by Jenna, a Canadian expat) or Simple Germany (by Yvonne,German national, and Jen, born Guatemaltecan, now freshly naturalized German; both are a couple). The latter channel is dedicated to assist expats from other countries to settle down in Germany and will inform you about everything from German citizenship, making friends/dating, getting a job, taxes, insurance, driving license and so on. There are a ton og channels of expats from all countries including the UK, Canada, the USA, New Zealand, South Africa, South Korea, Japan etc. as well as Yt channels by polyglots ((Wouter Corduwener, Oriental Pearl and Xiaomanyc. To somehow fit in you've got to learn the language of your host country. You don't have to be perfect but your goal is to be proficient on a communicational level. Also embrace the culture of your chosen country, be open for culture clash experiences. Just talk and make yourself understood. Most times people will be willing to help you out. Learn some basic phrases like "Bitte", "Danke", "Entschuldigung", "Ich heisse/Ich bin Brianna", "Wie spät ist es?", "Wie komme ich zum Bahnhof/Rathaus/Marktplatz" and just build on that. To immerse yourself in the culture: Go to a German Christmas Market, a Medieval Market/Concert/Fair, go to a fair like Spielemesse Essen (boardgames), attend some courses at VHS (this time focus on other languages than German or completely different fields like learning to play an instrument, learning pottery, painting (with acrylics, pencil, ink or coal), doing field trips, go to Open Air concerts (especially WGT/Wave Gotik Treffen (Leipzig), M'Era Luna (Hildesheim Airport), Peter und Paul (Bretten near Karlsruhe/Pforzheim) or MPS (Magisch-Phantastisches Spectaculum (several cities across Germany). Go see a Zoo (400+ In Germany: Karlsruhe, Stuttgart, Berlin, Hamburg) a Botanical Garden(Berlin) or an Aquarium (Stuttgart; Berlin). Visit a Farmer's market, a historical mine (reopened for visitors), a castle/residence ( Hochkönigsburg/Alsace, Burg Eltz, Burg Hohenzollern, Wartburg, Burg Hohenschwangau/Neuschwanstein) or Histotainment Park Adventon (Osterburken near Heibronn). Visit the oldest fully preserved medieval Cistercensian medieaval abbey north of the Alps (UNESCO World Heritage Site Kloster Maulbronn (near Pforzheim). Enjoy some relaxation time in a German Biergarten or an Open-Air ice cream parlor. If your goal is a German citizenship or proficiency at a certain level (like for job purposes) it gets a little more serious but you can take courses on your local VHS/Volkshochschule (a kind of community college which you will find in most German towns); they will offer preparatory courses. And once again, there are many YT channels to inform you about how things work from a foreigner's perspective as well as from a Germa/European one.

Very very nice 🥰

Cool 😊

Very nice 😊

2 years in Germany but you didnt learn German? You didnt go to a language class. that is so stupid.

Hi Brianna! I am a new subscriber, I recommend studying German at the Goethe Institut as they have classes in a group environment where you can make friends with people who are also learning German.

Germany is nice place to be unhappy. Every place on earth is what you make of it.

Yeah, I get that not speaking German in more rural areas tends to be more of a problem than in more urban ones. Especially considering the fact that the more rural you get, the stronger local dialects become, and depending on where you live, that can be quite rough. However, what's also true is that people love it when you know and use at least some individual terms in dialect, because it's just good fun. VHS courses are generally very good. You'll be doing great. All the best and have fun!

I love your style of being honest about things. Btw try to ask viewers to like and become a sub because I don’t understand why they’re maybe 346 viewers but only 17 likes.

Learning a new language in simple way is "learning by doing",try to speak with your co workers.Find a right way for your work and life balance and a personaltime for owen intrest.Stay well

Hello Brianna, check out the YT channel 'Tommy Crossen'. Tommy is an American youtuber living in D'dorf. His wife Amber is modelling too.

Your eyes reveal a shiny soul. I stumbled upon your channel as I said in my first comment. Your ethereal beauty makes me want to sub your channel just to see your wonderous face and hear your exquisite feminine voice! BTW~ I am normal man, no creepy! Stay well and stay blessed!

Once again, this woman is stunningly beautiful.

Hey Brianna. I travel to Germany a few times a month on business (real estate). I feel your frustration with the language barrier. I felt the same at first. Cheers! Harry, New York.

Germany socially akward Can not recommend

I'm working in a german hospital and once we had a british patient. It felt very weird to talk english to someone who does not understand anything else. i was uncomfortable with my english all the time, although i know that my english is pretty good.

Doo americans / Canadians speak german with german in their country?

There is a solution to your problems. Actually, there are two solutions, one easy and one hard. The easy one: go back to Canada. The hard one: Learn the language of the country you want to live in. By the way: We don't necessarily need models here either. Software engineer would be very good, but you obviously don't want to learn a language or do any serious work.

Listen you talk , you are really Canadian, talk, talk ,talk but you said nothing , samething wrong in water in Canada , i am thinking you guys born not brain , what going on .

you´r doing good, keep going 👍

I think your situation is better than many immigrants. At least you have your boyfriend to help you out. Imagine knowing no one from the beginning. Or imaging you're being a black or asian person.

Did you get swelling or puffiness after ? How long for recovery

You look as if you have just stepped out of a Vermeer painting! Your face is ethereal, celestial and grounded all at once. I am not sure why the algorithm gods sent me to your video, but I am glad! Quite beautiful indeed.

As a German who does a lot of chatting and writing in English but has few opportunities to actually speak the language I am always excited when someone speaking English for example asks me something on the street. I always think :"oh wow now I can see how well my English is". I think most of Germans who can speak English somewhat well think like that. When you are talking to a German that is 16-60 years old you are likely able to talk to them in English. Young people of course can't speak English yet and for old people it just wasn't common to learn in school. When it comes to making friends with Germans for what I know about making friends in the us for example is that you don't bump into someone on the street have some smalltalk and be friends with them. Smalltalk in general isn't really a thing in Germany. What you need to do to make a friend in Germany is to be patient. It's a good idea to try finding friends under your colleges or in school or any situation where you see that person on a regular basis. Don't forget you aren't best buddies by just introducing yourself and talking for a minute. A German friendship evolves when you talk to a person often and find topics you both enjoy together. The line of being "someone you know" and being friends is very blurry. There is no magic line you cross. If you do lots of things together you will move towards being friends and if you don't see each other for a long time you will go back to being someone you know. (it takes a lot longer to lose a friend than to make one) I hope this view of a German helps to understand why some things don't play out the way you thought they would.

if you're near Wuppertal (NRW) i'll invite you to a ride on the Schwebehahn...greets Micha

Have you considered trying to get work on a private yacht. Starting as a deck hand.

i spent several years in spain and it was difficult for me to find my place there. learning spanish was the first thing i had to do,in a foreign country learning the language is essential to make friends,understand the mentality and everything.without speaking the language you are not really "there". although spanish and german culture are not that different i had to learn and accept that things do not work the same way.when i put aside the things that i wanted to do and achieve in germany and opened myself to what spain has to offer for me it became much easier to get along. i made jobs that i would have never thought of before but i dicovered new talents and capabilities in myself.it made me grow.i returned to germany when i became father and school education in germany i considered to be better than in spain-but apart from learning spanish this experience taught me a lot about myself

Because of the pandemic, much of the social life came to an abrupt halt, which made it harder to find friends in general. Usually all you have to do is go to a cosy pub (Kneipe) and depending on the area you'll even get seated with strangers and strike conversations. A good place to find like-minded people is in courses like VHS, which will offer photography classes. Also you can attend some lectures on Fachhochschule and University, they offer some for guests, and offer designer schools your expertise in the industry from the view point of a model in Toronto. You might find an open ear for the concept. You can ask store and hairstylists, whether they are interested in fresh material for their Website and work with their advertising agencies and thus extend your new network in Germany. I'm just brainstorming and have no clue whether it works or not, but it is worth a try. I got my school friend for a modeling job, when a restaurant owner needed a new brochure so I contacted a local photographer who had a friend in a supermarket, and we had a photo session in front of the wine shelves with my friend in the shopping cart. I was the web designer who branched out into print design for this job. Once I simply told a guy in the ice cream store, that the t-shirt was my design, and it resulted in a merch design job. As for language barrier, I recommend a crash course. 4 to 6 week nothing but language training. And since you live in the country, practicing what you just learned is easy, though admittedly you may have to ask people to stick to German and not speak English. :) Good luck.

very cute & classy girl

Wow- I didn’t know that.

Thank you for all of the advice and kind words!! 🤗

Hey :) Have you considered a normal job? I mean besides modeling or social media. Both of those things are not really something that is profitable in Germany except of you get super lucky. Especially social media will get a huge hit in the next years. World wide, but especially here since most studies show that influencers for example dont bring in the money they are paid. I think its 4 customers per 150.000 followers on avarage for people that are not famous in another field. The money people will make will probably drop drastically. You might be happier if you work in a full time job and do the modeling, social media and figuring out your business on the side. I mean I dont know what you studied or what your job skills are, but maybe you should consider it if you have not yet. I believe german would be mendatory for that though. That would also help to make friends and people are usually happier if they have a full time job. I can understand why hanging in between all the things you are doing now can be sorta frustrating.

Please learn German-Speaking! Step by step!

Also...wenn du jeden Tag nur 5 neue, deutsche Wörter lernen würdest aufgeteilt in Substantiv, Verb, Adjektiv...wärest du ganz toll. Du brauchst sowieso, falls du hier wirklich Zugang zu allen möglichen Jobs haben willst, mindestens das B1 Zertifikat, beziehungsweise sogar das B2 Zertifikat. Also geh' so schnell wie möglich zur Volkshochschule oder mache einen Onlinekurs. Wenn du deine englisch- sprachigen Kollegen auf RUclips checken würdest, wüsstest du das alles bereits. Es gibt einige Kanäle von Kanadiern und Amerikanern in Deutschland. Und stell' dir einfach Mal vor: Du wohnst in Kanada irgendwo und da ist neben dir jemand aus einem anderen Land, der seit zwei Jahren da auch wohnt und kein Wort englisch spricht? Was würdest du denn über diese Person denken? Die Sprache des Landes zu sprechen, in dem man wohnt, ist die absolute Basis für wirklich alles. In der letzten Zeit, C- Zeit, sind einige Amerikaner und Kanadier, auch Südafrikaner nach Deutschland gekommen und machen einen RUclips Kanal. Es war scheinbar für Niemanden einfach. Trotzdem sprechen sie inzwischen so gut Deutsch, dass man sie im Alltag gut versteht. Selbst diejenigen, die erst 3 Monate hier sind!!! Es ist also offensichtlich doch nicht so ganz unmöglich die deutsche Sprache zu erlernen! Spricht man nicht in Kanada sogar englisch und französisch? Du müsstest doch wissen, wie man einigermaßen strukturiert eine Sprache erlernt.

Sounds like you might fit in better in Berlin.

"roof plates": Dachziegel That looks like an awful lot of work. Photovoltaik planned?

Coming from a major city and moving to a small town will def be very harsh. You should consider to relocate into a large city with a uni. Cologne or Berlin are amazing. Impossible to not friends very quick (my experience) . Modelling isn't considered as a real job here tbh, people don't care to dress up, unlike in London or Milano. STEM fields, doctors, nurses are however in very high demand.

Hello...thanks for the video. Nice vibes good thought. The best method to meet people is to go to a verein (club) choose a topic what you like to do. Hiking, swimming, singing...whatever. There will be a verein. Automatic you will meet people with the same interests. I haven't seen a video about German verein choosed by a Canadian woman. Could be interesting 🙂

Thank you for sharing this my new friend

If you want to live here I expect you to learn German. Otherwise you always will be isolated. Did you notice when you talked about Toronto you mentioned about people from different countries communicating (in English). So they all learned the language. Why didn't you?

I remember when I first moved to Germany. I couldn’t believe how difficult it was to make friends. And the language is very hard, because those friends you do make want to practice their English. Watch films and tv in German with English subtitles , preferably not dubbed, but originally in German. It helps so much. Have a look at Hayley Alexis channel, she always cheers me up. Big hugs xxx

What is the best country to live in? This is a very exciting question for me that I have been thinking about for a long time. I realized that I am completely different from many of the people around me. Because my kind of "favourite country" is the German polar research station "Neumayer Station III" in Antarctica, there in "Queen Maud Land". Why? Because I'm with a few other people there and can deal or work with interestin things in a meaningfully way, so I don't get lonely and stupid over the time, but I'm far away from all the things that mostly annoy me and the so-called "normal life" and the many hectic people and all that one cannot escape under normal circumstances. Ok, that's just a dream that I can't realize of course.

Hello Brianna, I am a new subscriber. I wish you well on your journey as you seek your aspirations. I am an Ameican and I am looking forward to following your journey in Germany. I also have a RUclips channel as well and it is all about Germany :). Let's keep in touch :).
