  • Have you ever wondered what life is really like in Germany? I decided to find out by chatting with expats who were brave enough to make the move. In this video, I uncover the truth behind the pros and cons of living abroad. From speaking with foreigners who’ve experienced it all, I reveal whether life is truly better in Germany.

      @@vinschnent yes exactly. Its senseless if the French work 1000 hours per day but are not productive. I observed the same in Greece and Spain, where I live. They work a lot but they do nearly nothing in this time and wonder, why they dont earn money. Just sitting and waiting and doing nothing is not working.

      In my experience people who find a lot of places to be "dangerous" have either been really unlucky or they have a tendency to get into trouble themselves... or they've never actually been to said place and just heard scary stories.
      Like I now live in Berlin close to Warschauer Straße/Brücke and some people will be like "oh no don't go there. it's so dangerous!" and I'm like what are you even talking about? Same with places like Kottbusser Tor in Kreuzberg or Neukölln in general.

      Totally agree! We (i.e. Germans) are a bunch of complainers and there are quite a few of things to complain about. But on the whole, we have it pretty good. Anyone who has ever lived abroad for a long time can understand that, I think.

    In my opinion, as a German, it is ok country to live, but not to enjoy life. Any time I was in Brazil or Italy I made friend super quickly, and they are really good friends, including my Italian boyfriend... In Germany I only am friends good friends with people with Turkish background etc. I do think my German German friends are way too strict and cold-hearted, I do not feel so well around them. I dont connect with typical German mentality, sometimes can be really harsh and brutal mentality... I love Italian way of living, you invite people over for pasta pizza, just to have a nice evening, you dont have to become friends or best friends, but just be a bit more spontaneous and friendly. A smile goes a long way.

    Germany could be the best or one of the best place(s) for living on earth but the biggest problem with it is its language which takes decades to master. By the time you learn German well enough to understand spoken form of it without subtitles, you will have left your adolescence behind! Germany has always been a dream place for me to live (because I'm a car enthusiast interested in German Youngtimers!) but Deutsch is a massive barrier that never let me enter this great country. Wish all the people in the world could speak the same language and communicate much easier.

      The English TH is equivalent to the German D.

      Wie schnell fahren Sie?
      Können Sie bitte mir geben um etwas zu schreiben?
      So, yes I have already started studying German (I study about 3 - 4 hours per day).
      However, the main problems I face with are:
      1) - Understanding spoken German
      2) - Making sentences in German and German word order
      All the complexities of German grammar can be handled because there are rules to follow but the word order doesn't seem to follow any strict rules and verbs, subjects, adverbs and objects can switch their places in a sentence awkwardly! Maybe things get better during the process but I'm not sure!

Being an auslander, especially african- housing appartments are expensiiiiiiivvvves, taxes and health(itq true it helps) take 42% of ur salary. There are 23 millions of migrants there but they still complain about lack of laborers. Because language barrières. U have millions of talented and able migrants but on the streets,obliged C1 level for a job,having an appointment takes months. Really. And for the migrants that make it, they r just used to benefit the economy but how they been treated. They should regulise migrants situation there

    Nice video, als always.
    Now, being German and never really having lived anywhere else, I do not feel entitled to answer.
    I think, however, what may come up in the comments is the question of "general safety" - now, Munich is, undoubtedly, one of the safer major cities in Germany, and definitly one of the cleanest I have ever visited. :)
    However, I'd say that compared with other countries, general safety nationwide is not as bad as some Germans think it is. (Talking to expat co-students and co-workers was quite enlightening there).
    This is especially true for the countryside (even if burglary eg has increased over the past decades alongside with transit traffic). Eg, it is said that Mafia leaders frequently hide in the German countryside posing as decent Italian citizens - as no one would ever look for them there. (This is true for my former home town, at least, where such a guy for years was the neighbour and friend of the local chief of police...)
    But also if you take a look at big cities. There are always areas where one would not like to go alone, but I guess that is true for every city (Edit: almost everywhere in the world). I am a middle-aged (or well, a bit more than that) woman, and still feel safe using public transport during evenings in the larger cities of my area. And it's not Munich, btw. :)))

    • @peter_meyer
      @peter_meyer Год назад +6

      Yep, fully agree. After living in a London suburb for almost 2 years i appreciate the allnight public transport in my tow and around. Despite living just 30km out of London city, it was more or less impossible to get out of London late in the evening. So either you had a car or had to leave the city at 7pm latest. Alternatvely pay a taxi cab 60 quid. That was back when the Pound was at 1,60.

That's why this party, which is making a different policy is being attacked, defamed and demonized, so that the Germans are afraid of it and although they are quite unhappy with the other parties, they don't vote for this one party.
