I am a USA citizen that lived in Utah and Los Angeles before moving to Munich. I immediately noticed the difference in the Munich Police, compared to what I was used to in the USA. They are so much calmer with the public and are great at deescalating situations. Extremely efficient, and they work together well as a team. I once witnessed a man having a mental health break in Hauptbahnhof and at least 8 police officers showed up out of nowhere and formed a circle around him. They protected the public and let him scream and spit in their faces until he calmed down. Then they asked him if he was done, they apparently knew him somewhat, and he said he was done. Then the police let him leave and made sure he got out of the train station OK. I just sat there with my mouth hanging open imagining how the LAPD would have reacted in the same situation.
Well, there is a german expat living in LA and operating a YT channel, He describes about such situations reversely :)
@@kellymcbright5456I would appreciate the link to that channel 🙂 Please
Hi
In Germany we dont have "City based" or "county based" police.
We have only state polce but there is the "Ordnungsamt" that have also (Baden-Württemebrg esp.) full police duties.
It is only how many experiance do the police in the stations have with these or that people.
I am a man and have many experiance with people with psychiatric problems and people who are/were homeless.
But mostly they are not that bad only mostly because of their lifeexperiance they are are "not comfortable" with other people.
@@Caddl123 Kompletter Blödsinn. Die so genannte "Schutzpolizei" ist eine "Stadtpolizei" und dazu gibt es die Bundespolizei, die z.B. für Bahnhöfe und an Flughäfen zuständig ist und dazu gibt es noch die Landeskriminalämter, die über der "regulären" Polizei und den Kriminalkommissariaten stehen, wenn diese z.B. nicht für Mordermittlungen zuständig ist, was sich von Bundesland zu Bundesland unterscheiden kann.
As someone who works in a German government institution: Trust me, we hate our bureaucracy too. 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂
Same here.
The difference in policing could be that most of Europe has 4 year schooling for police officers, where they are taught basic psychology of de-escalation and undergo psych evaluations before they can become active police officers. From what I've heard our hairdressers get more schooling (3 years in an actual school where they learn their craft, different languages and other basic classes) than the US police force (which is -I think- only 6 months long).
This is actually really crazy, if you consider that after WW2, Germany's police force underwent some drastic reforms and was to a great extent modelled after US law enforcement.
The USA gave Germany a modern police force, but they can't do it for themselves.
@@BrokenCurtain my grandfather told me once: "We (Germany) won WWII. I was shocked and asked if he'd forgotten we lost. (He was nearly 90 years old at this moment.) He said: "No. We lost the war but won so much more. If America didn't help us afterwards we've had bad medicine, bad education, bad economy and so on. We wouldn't stand where we stand and wouldn't be who we are today without loosing WWII and having help from the USA."
I think he's right. We have benefited much more from the USA than most Germans even think of.
My father worked as a police commissioner. They're very well trained and selected.
According to an article I read some time in the last few years, police training in the USA is on average 12 or 16 weeks. That number already includes the long training of a year or two in some parts. Others have a week or two!
After reading the article I was like „no wonder I was afraid of the cops when I visited my family in the USA“.
Here in Denmark and other countries, you actually need 7 years education to become a policeman. You need 3 years in, lets called it college. After college, you can start police training. 3,5 or 4 years, I don't remember exactly.
Yes, training is a big part in the difference but the other big part in my opinion is that cops in US basically have to fear that every person they control has a gun with them (and there we end up with the gun conreol problem). That changes also the dynamc dramatically.
None the less i often feel that the only qualification in the US to be a cop is to being able shoot, at that not even at a high level. And on top there is the problem of the so called bad eggs/apples still finding employment within police forces somewhere else even if the were fired from their previous job because of misconduct.
Gun-people always say: "Guns don't shoot you, people shoot you!" That's true, but people without guns don't shoot me either.
ohhh that is amazing logic
Your new hair does look great 🧡👍
Thank you so much ❤ It is very different and hard to get used to but it is a lot of fun!!!
Hayley kann alles trägen! ❤
@@arnodobler1096 ich weiß das !!
I really feel you on your fear of German bureaucracy 🙈
But if this is somehow soothing to you: I, as a German, have been in trouble with this (cause let's be real, shit happens when you are confronted with a lot of paperwork), but the people who "came for me" were always highly professional and calm at the very least. The vast majority turned out to be really understanding and supportive as long as they perceived me as willing to solve the issue as best as I can.
I still think this bureaucracy is scaty as hell, but I can assure you (and myself 😂) that people will rather help you clean up your mess than cause you more trouble even if you really messed up (and I did, believe me ...).
I'm moving to Stuttgart from Florida next week. I'm originally from Ohio, but I've spent the last five months in Florida. It was ok, but I look forward to my new life in Germany
Yo hey, Welcome. Trey daze is in stuttgart
You will love it :) it won't be the easiest thing in the world but you will be so happy once you make it over!!!
@@HayleyAlexis well, I got my WG until my citizenship finalizes. After that, my life is going to change dramatically. My grandfather died April 1989, months before the wall came down, and Germany was reunified. I'm the first Hummel to come back home in a little over a hundred years
Oh wow, gute Reise! Hope the culture shock doesn't hit too hard.
There is a famous soccer Player called Hummels. Playing for Dortmund.
Thank you Hayley very informing! 👍
❤
Wie immer finde ich es toll, wie gut Du diese kleinen atmosphärischen Sachen ausdrücken kannst, aus denen sich unser Lebensgefühl zusammensetzt!
Your observations/personal experience are topics that become embedded in the US people, without realizing it also can be different. It's becoming a bubbling mix that will explode one moment.
Good video btw👍👍
I'm sorry you had to go through the October Fest incident. People can be so strange. 😮
Hi Hayley. I as a German totally agree and get where you come from when you feel apprehensive or anxious at German bureaucracy. I do as well. I ain't certain if there is even a word for it but I would call it Amtsphobie in German. Even before I go there, I have to fight my innerer Schweinehund to do it. I get sweaty palms, my pulse rises, I slowly work myself into a panic and have to force myself to calm down. You know what helps a lot? Usually there's an info stall at the entrance. Tell them that, yes, you have this irrational phobia, similar to arachnophobia, that, no they themselves aren't responsible for it, that you are doing your best... I did this twice now recently during two separate visits (passport and driver's license update) and my experience was wonderful each time. The people understand phobias much better today, and are so accommodating. Since then my anxiety levels when dealing with the German hellscape of a bureaucracy have dropped to manageable levels.
Greetz from a German in Hamburg.
She wasn't talking about phobias, though. I never heard of such a phobia, maybe you should get help. This is not normal.
Our bureaucracy can be scary, I empathize with you. I had this when I was self-employed and realised, it was not the right way for me. I feared to go to the Arbeitsamt (unemployment office). They don't have a good reputation for not humiliating in the process. But on the other hand, I think there is always a time of fear and we need to evolve to overcome it. (... saying this, as if I had never failed.)
Dealing with bureacracy is just a skill you need in G. Its like learning to drive in case you want participate in traffic. Once you know how it is easy. Once you get a official letter - deal with it instantly. You cannot hide anyway.
Most German citizens have a hard time with our bureaucracy. Whether it's a tax return or an application for unemployment benefits, no one likes filling out so much paperwork and revealing so much information about themselves.
US-Americans even praise their country in their anthem as "Land Of The Free", but what does america do for its citizens to ensure this individual "freedom"? Rights are being curtailed everywhere, and the exclusion of various population groups is being forced. The USA is a country with the largest economic output, but the lowest socio-economic development compared to other industrialized countries. It is no wonder that disappointed or even desperate citizens eventually go off and attack other, innocent people out of frustration and despair, because the state makes it possible for them to do so.
In the USA, it is always about profit. Caring for the well-being of individual citizens costs money and involves significant legal changes and regulations, which also jeopardize the profits of large corporations and thus the "donations" for politicians. Therefore, nothing will change in this direction (for now).
Germany doesn't need as much CCTV as the US because we have Omas in Kittelschürzen staring out of their windows on every street corner.
and nerving you until unendlichkeit -_-
@@HayleyAlexis Yes, they do, and Bavarian Omas can be super scary as I have learned riding my bike on a sidewalk in München many years ago. 😬 I think that particular lady literally tried to put her broom stick in my tires...
But people like that not only watch others for the fun of it or to nag, they also tend to notice and report when something weird is going on. Like strange men approaching kids or people sneaking around a neighbor's house. There are always two sides on a medal.
I drove by a garage with text written HUGE across the entire garage door, "THE NEIGHBOR IS WATCHING." W.T.H. I was in Kuerten, NRW. WTH is wrong with people.
True 😂
@@LythaWausW Nothing. People watch out for their neighbors, in the US and in Germany 😅
I love this video. Thank you for talking about the very real fear of getting shot in the USA. In Germany that doesn't even cross my mind and I am grateful!
Totally appropriate new word: divisiveness-ism. That's the -ism that hits us the hardest right now.
GIRL THOSE BRAIDSSS!!! LOVE THEM!!!!! grüße aus Hamburg!!!
Thank you!! I needed a new hairstyle.... My little afro was not allowing me to be great LOL
Bin begeistert von dem Video, weil Du alles so differenzierst darstellst. Allein schon, wie Du am Anfang Deine persönliche Perspektive erläuterst. Ich habe als junge Afrodeutsche eine Menge herber sexistischer Erfahrungen hier in Deutschland gemacht, gekoppelt mit Rassismus. Alles ist gut ausgegangen, weil ich offenbar einen guten Schutzengel habe und ich gelernt habe, gut auf mich aufzupassen und zu verteidigen. Die Polizei war in den 70er, 80er und 90er Jahren auch nicht so nett wie heute. Ich wäre früher nicht im entferntesten auf die Idee gekommen, Polizisten um Hilfe zu bitten. Heute sind Polizisten gebildeter, besser ausgebildet und reflektierter, da hat sich viel Gutes getan. Im Übrigen fühle ich mich in Westdeutschland viel sicherer als im Osten der Republik, auch so ein Thema. - Danke für deine tollen Videos!
You came at the right time, Mike wanted to go hiking anyway 😂
He literally asked me if I wanted to go this weekend 🤣🫣🥴
@@HayleyAlexis That's the spirit! ;-)
I think it’s a difference in culture and mentality really. Seems to me we Americans are too trigger happy when it comes to guns and we have that 2nd amendment that Germany doesn’t have. We Americans believe our freedom is sacred. Okay.. not every country is free like ours - but last time I checked - Germany is no less free than the US - yet Germany has no gun problem like we do. It doesn’t matter which country it is - if you have more guns that adults - you have a problem.
16:07 Same to you.
One thing I didn't hear you compare was:
* homeless in Germany
* homeless in the US.
I have been homeless in Trier, and I have slept on the forefront of a store, and the store owner was fine with it as long as I left when he came to open. US, is it very different?
You talking about the things you are scared of in germany. Let me tell you: you are not alone. Something i notice is a very german thing, other nations people do not know what i am talking about when i am describing this... ...is 'postangst'. The fear you feel when you got mail or the moment before you open it. It is a thing here. Look it up.
I am German and I live in Florida with my American husband. I have a lot of post-angst in the US. Because everything is so expensive here. I especially fear health care bills! In Germany I never feared an expensive bill because of having been to a doctor.
This also not any scientific research (which I do at times): I am father to 3 school age children, the oldest being 13 and she was terrified to go to school, especially after Nashville. Apparently the school had an unannounced lock down drill the day before Nashville which rattled her to the core. Then the massacre happened and that pushed her over the edge. We had long conversations, some very emotional, all extremely difficult. Her conclusion was that she does no longer want to live in the US, a 13 year old who is afraid to go to school, not because of the "normal" teenage angst, peer pressure, perhaps even bullying and name calling but because she is in real fear for her life. Any German reading this will consider it some blown out of proportions tale; a ridiculous story but for most American families it is bloody (literally BLOODY) reality..
German here - and no, I don't think this is blown out of proportion at all. That's literally the reason why I don't even want to visit the US as a tourist. If I imagine having to live there... I don't know how I'd manage the anxiety of sending my kid to school everyday. No joke - I googled armored clothing and they sell kevlar hoodies in kid's sizes. That's all you need to know how bad it really is.
German here too. I believe you. I would never visit the USA as a tourist, because my fear to die, only because I‘m there. I wish I could see the wonderful nature, but no.
Are you still live in the US?
@@biss141
Yes, I am (still living in the US) and cannot leave for several reasons, at least not for quite some time. Once the kids are done with school this may become an option, until then I just hope none of them becomes a statistic.
The real issue here is the support of gun ownership by most lawmakers and even those who are open to some form of gun control do not dare to discuss the idiocy of the 2nd amendment in the 21st century
Honesty, I feel pity for American citizens!
Being a father as well, your story makes me wanna cry, I really feel for you, sir, all my sympathy to you. I imagined to have such a talk with my daughter and got the feeling of total helplessness just by starting to think about it. And I would not want to send my daughter into a school where she may get killed. Actually, it is unbelievable that events like those happening in the USA on a regular basis do not cause a revolution. These are unbearable conditions of life. But instead it looks like the gun supporters are threatening a revolution if guns get regulated by law. That is madness.
I will never understand what this 2nd amendment struggle in the USA is about. Gun violence is killing three times more Americans in the USA than 9/11 - each year. Which makes the most dangerous foe of any American: another American.. Is the USA a nation or just 300 million people fighting each other in the struggle for a good life? From afar it looks like the latter.
12:00 😳Ooh. Okay, now. Hayley, do you carry a personal-alarm keychain? I mean, don't get me wrong. The ability to fight back in the event you're attacked is useful, but what _really_ drives off a would-be attacker is _attention;_ the kind of attention generated by a sudden, loud noise; something on the order of 130 decibels.
In terms of physical safety you are right. Germany is massively safer than the US. Even in "good" areas in the US you can find a lot more crime than Germany. When I visited America as a tourist in 1993 I landed in New York and was slightly apprehensive about walking around the city on my own despite being male. However one of the things that most stood out to me was the huge police presence all over the place. I mean minium of two but usually groups of five or more police officers hanging around on street corners, in public spaces etc. This was during Guliani's get tough on crime initiative. I have to say I felt completely safe the time I was there and that included walking literally from one side of Manhattan to the other and back again. Sad to see recent reports of the huge uptick in cirme and people in New York saying they no longer feel safe as they used to.
I emigrated here finally in 2000 and live in Phoenix Arizona. In the last five years there has been a noticable increase in violence citywide. There is not a single day that goes by without a news report of at least one shooting somewhere in the valley, and that's just shootings. There are usually many more regular assaults and other forms of crime not to mention the huge new problem of idiots conducting street racing and wrong way driving on the cities freeways.
I come from South Africa and can remember just before I left talking with a family memeber about emigrating and she was having a hard time understanding me. When I talked about the news her reaction was that she doesn't listen to the news. That way it doesn't affect her mental state. I now feel similarly about the news here. I try to avoid it as much as possible so that my psyche is not adversely affected. This is not a good thing.
@Smiling Shadow Was eine absolute Ausnahme ist, ich lebe mein ganzes Leben lang hier und mir wurde nur einmal was geklaut - mein Fahrrad. „Innerhalb von 5min ausgeraubt“ erweckt den Eindruck einer hohen Kriminalitätsrate, die es hier aber nicht gibt. Du hast ganz einfach nur Pech gehabt.
Ein Vergleich der Kriminalitätsstatistiken zeigt es doch schon. Angst erschossen zu werden, braucht man hier auf der Straße übrigens auch nicht zu haben.
@@biss141 a german had his bike stolen, there's some people in The Netherlands that can relate 😂 Wo ist mein Fahrrad?
@Smiling Shadow I’ve lived in Germany for >50 years now, and only once did someone try to break into my flat, but was stopped by my neighbours. One time my brother borrowed my bicycle and it was stolen and he himself was attacked once (he came here 4 years after I did). That’s all I’ve ever experienced in all these years and I live in a large city, not a quiet rural town.
@SmilingShadow-jl5tr Nothing but a bunch of fascistic BLABLABLA.
My Mother lives in the US since the 80, I have three half brothers over there and two of them were/are jailbirds and they live/d in exactly those places that you described, not in NYC or L.A, cause the real shootings, the massacers, the MASS killings of CHILDREN exactly take place in these small towns !
Idiots like you are nothing but fascists. Period.
A friend of mine is 54 now, he was born in germany but is "black" and morons like you have ever since questioned if he really is german or if he came from africa ...
Btw. the area you described is WELL know for criminal activities, especially when it comes to human trafficking and drug dealing ... just saying, get your facts STRAIGHT, idiot.
Yes I agree my fear of the German government happens every day when I go to my mailbox...I panic if I get anything from any state office...Also any time I have to deal with this paperwork I am always sure I must have missed something...Like after moving to a new apartment I went to the einwohner melde amt to change my adress officially. But after
Dear Hayley as a woman , i would never go out alone at night in big cities , because unfortunately there are sometimes few men who could become pushy or aggressiv if they had drunk alcohol.But at most festivals and clubs in Germany there are always security personnel who can help and with larger parties are always the local police who could help you if you feel bad.
I've never felt unsafe in public spaces anywhere in European cities. I have felt unsafe in smaller towns in America. Mostly because I experienced a school shooting when I went to high school.
Thank you for adding the word "few". I'm fully aware that violence against women is a big problem, but for me as a man it feels insulting when someone is afraid of me at night just because I happen to be male. 🙈
I don`t want to offend any men. Unfortunately there are very few men who have drunk alcohol have changed their character and can there fore be unpredictable.@@MaskedBishop
@@blondkatze3547 I know that and I was being serious with my thanks. Unfortunately not everybody is being precise there.
It`s really very sad that so many innocent children in the USA have to die as a result of gun violence. As a woman i also feel safe in the countryside and in smaller towns in Europe. Just not in big cities.@@charisma-hornum-fries
Just ring accidental some random strangers doorbell and evaluate: get short talk and help offered (germany) or get shot without any talk (USA)
Now, THAT last question about the canal is definitely strange.
Talking like a stranger doesn’t really mean a danger nor should it be.
She rocking them Braids 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I think we have to differentiate between racism and xenophobia, the latter meaning a dislike or prejudice against people from other countries. Both are discrimination and neither is ok by any means, but I think what you'd find in Germany is more often the latter. Some people have this obscure fear of foreign cultures taking over good ole Germany, some think refugees are taking something away from them.
It is neither better nor worse than racism in the USA and elsewhere, it's just a different reason or motivation for discrimination.
Both often intertwine though.. Things can be racist, xenofobic and classist, all at the same time. Everything influences eachother due to course of history
@@michalovesanime Except that xenophobia happens on an even more basic level. Can be even something stupid as someone who used to live 2 streets away comes living next door. Change is often the biggest factor, nothing racial about that.
I know this could be nitpicking, but I think xenophobia is a bit better than racism. Please hear me out. Xenophobia does not prejudice on anything specific like skin color or whatever. Instead, people were "only" afraid of the change in culture. This gets closer to the root of the fear, just to call it fear/phobia. This cannot be said about racism.
Said in a psychological way, fear is what's hidden behind hate. And it's easier to dissolve the contradictory of this fear only and not hate in addition.
That being said, this should not excuse being xenophobic. But knowledge is the first step to recovery. (I'm curious if this is not just a German saying.)
@Kokuswolf That's an interesting view on the topic... I think both can be learned or come from experience, and both isn't right to the other person. But I think that racism in the USA is mostly against people who call the country their home, just because they look different, whereas xenophobia is more against immigrants - as you said, coming from the fear for their culture, or maybe because of former experiences.
E.g. a co-worker once told me that his (then 75) year old mother "hated those Russians" coming to Germany in the 90s. I was shocked because I had found friends among them. But he explained that she remembered what happened after ww2 when "the Russians" invaded parts of Germany... So I think it's more understandable but still not right, because those "Russians" in the 90s - who had German ancestors BTW - weren't the same people who invaded Germany 50 years earlier. (And let's not start to talk about their motivation after the German invasion in Russia...)
And then there is the fear "They are taking our jobs..."
Xenophobia often goes hand-in-hand with racism, that’s why people don’t often understand the difference. Being a Brit living in Germany and having travelled to the US a few times, as well as having contact to Americans (I also have family over there), I have seen the same kind of xenophobia in all three countries. As you say, it’s the fear of their country being overrun by foreigners, but also the fear of white people being replaced by POC and eventually becoming extinct. In the US they call it the great replacement theory. According to RW media, Democrats are letting people come across the border in order to gain their votes and undermine Republicans as well as to create a mixed race and in the long run “exterminate” white people. Most of us here know this is absolute nonsense, but there are always people who do believe it, here in Germany as well as in the UK and the US. Possibly in many other countries, too.
11:39 that’s such an odd question for one to ask. How terrifying!
I'm off topic but Switzerland is by far the safest European country I've been to. My friend lost his iPhone on the train and next day he received a letter from the police station that someone found it. Switzerland is really a dream country for me even though I've lived in similar countries (Japan, Singapore) before. I hope I can get a job there.
As a naturalized German, I still have this deep fear when I see police officers worrying that they might deport me. I know it's completely irrational, but I can't seem to shake it off.
Fears are often irrational
I'm white and was born and raised in Germany, but I also sometimes fear that police officers might accuse me of something I haven't done. They just have too much power and can easily make things difficult for you if they want to. 🙈
I hope you get deported.
@@MaskedBishop 🤭
Mhm I was just to say: where does this loooong hair all of a sudden come from. It looks very real!
Well according to a American police officer from LAPD the police education in LA takes 6 months - in Germany it takes 30 months. So in some cases I would guess education matters.
Never have I had the police wait for a table to get up and leave. My husband and I visited my brother in Florida (my husband is from Switzerland and I was living over there). We went out to a restaurant/bar with some of my brothers friends. My brother used the mens room and there was a guy waiting for a urinal and my brother being the smartass that he is said to the guy theres a trashcan over there just go there. They had some words and my brother walked off. This guy from the bathroom comes up to the table and threatens that hes going to fight my brother in the parking lot. 2 booths behind us there were 4 police officers eating dinner. We finsihed our dinner and so did the police. We were waitinf for the police to get up and leave, but they never did. Awhile later we thought the police weren't going to leave so we got up. The police got up with us and said "finally you guys are leaving. We were waiting for you guys to leave."
"Small talk" gone wrong...
@tic-tacdrin-drinn1505 no it wasn't small talk. Small talk would be longer than there's a trash can over there. Small talk definition is polite conversation about unimportant or uncontroversial matters, especially as engaged in on social occasions. My brother wasn't being polite and if the guy wasn't high on meth he would have realized he was being a jackass
I never felt anxiety when staying in USA. Maybe I am just too naive.
At least, the taxi driver for example refused to drive me from Manhattan to Harlem. I had to walk. Was a nice walk in the central park.
The "Amt" will come to get you! lol 😆
Btw Hayley whats with your Hair^^ are those extensions or do you use some Atomic Shampoo that is has grown back so fast? hrhr xD
I am planning a trip in June to SE America - Florida for my German husband's first visit. I know nothing about Florida except the spectacular weather. Can you recommend where we should go? My mom says Disneyworld is the ultimate. Is it?
We‘ll go to Florida too this year. We plan on going to space center, the Disney stuff doesn’t mean anything to us 😉
I think because I grew up with Disney and I am a Floridian - it is something I recommend to everyone. If I were to rate the parks it would be as follow:
1. Disney's Hollywood Studios
2. EPCOT
3. Animal Kingdom
4. Magic Kingdom
If you are on a budget I don't recommend Disney because you can easily spend what you make in a month on a 3 day trip there. Universal Studios & Bush Gardens are awesome alternatives that in my opinion can sometimes be more fun than DIsney.
To give some "weird" recommendations that include every area of Florida:
1) Cayo Costa - If you have time and enjoy nature this is a very wonderful experience that is off the grid. You can rent tiny cabins on the island that is only accessible by boat. I don't remember if it is open after the hurricane but here is the link: www.floridastateparks.org/CayoCosta
2) Bok Tower- just a wonderful place to walk around. A nice little trip my grandma and I took together: boktowergardens.org/
3) Highlands Hammock State Park- this was one of Mike's favorite places to visit. You have to check out the catwalk if you go: floridahikes.com/highlandscypress
4) Ginnie Springs which is a HIGHLIGHT for anyone in Florida. It is in a random location but so beautiful!! Depending on the season it can be very packed- it used to be a hidden gem but it is very popular now: ginniespringsoutdoors.com/
5) Taking the Key West Express from Fort Myers/Marco Island (Marco Island is BEAUTIFUL) to Key West for the day or staying the night. I have done this before and it was so much fun. It is a 3.5 hour boat ride down to Key West, they drop you off in the city at around 12pm and you can explore the city, get some food, and like I said stay the night or leave again after 4 hours BUT it is relatively expensive. Mike and I drove from Fort Myers to Key West and went to Fort Zachary: www.floridastateparks.org/parks-and-trails/fort-zachary-taylor-historic-state-park and the Hemingway Home/Museum is there which I have visited a few times... I mean there are also very interesting bars if you are into that kind of stuff :)
6) Captiva island is always wonderul- drive until you can't drive anymore and just watch the sunset- you will most likely be alone and I usually see dolphins out there.
7) Of course the space center
8) Fairchild Botanical Garden in Coral Gables (basically Miami) was really amazing to walk around- huge iguanas and alligators just roaming the sidewalks with you.
9) Going on an airboat tour is also a lot of fun!!
10) and if you are ever riding through the middle of nowhere Florida and happen to be in the area... this little hole in the wall restaurant has a tasty burger: forreygrill.com/forrey-menu/
I hope these are helpful. I don't want to list too many food spots or stereotypical places because Florida is so much more than those things. Still visit the touristy places if you want to because I have done so many stereotypical Florida things in my life that I don't find them "interesting" anymore and I am a little biased.
Just make sure, you either bring lots of cash or have a healthy bank balance, when you visit any of the theme parks. It gets expensive. Make sure, you diligently put on sunscreen, (50) or you will regret it. I prefer nature or off the beaten path sites. Sanibel and Captiva Islands were gorgeous, prior to hurricane Ian destroying it, last October. It's basically a giant debris removal and construction site now. It's heart breaking because it was so beautiful. If you know how to swim, I'd recommend diving/snorkeling on the reefs near Key West. It's a wonderful experience. Take an air boat ride through parts of the Everglades. It's loud but they make you wear protective gear for your ears. Canoe rides on some of the rivers will give you a Florida fauna experience. Most beaches are nice, I prefer the ones that are not crowded. There are many nature parks and one of them is near Cape Canaveral. There are no houses or buildings of any kind, and the beach is only accessible by foot (there is parking beyond the dunes). South Florida and/or the West Coast of Florida, will give you beautiful sunset sceneries too. There is a restaurant/bar called the Lorelei on one of the Keys, where you can sit and sip a drink, listen to a guy playing the steel drums while watching the sunset. I think, it's on Islamorada, if memory serves me right. It's stunning!
Watch out for the alligators.
It was so surprising that the months I spent in Essen only one time did I see a police car. I had to learn not to get anxious because somebody smiled and said hello and that felt nice. We always used common sense like not being out alone at night and keeping our drinks safe…coming home was overwhelming with police everywhere and then being scared if we were pulled over. Everyday in our paper there are shootings, kids bringing guns to school or calling in live shooter or bomb threats. Earlier this year a six year old shot his teacher not even an hour from me. This weekend two hospital employees got into a fight in the stairwell and one shot and killed the other. So my fear is both of people and police and nowhere feels safe. 😢
I'm German and I can fully understand your fears regarding buerocracy. You depend on their decisions that could have a strong impact on your quality of life. Just don't give in and search for help. There are websites and forums for every kind of buerocratic issues. You don't have to accept wrong decisions and can go to lawyer. If you don't have enough money for try to get financial support at your local court.
In the US Hayley carries a howitzer, in Germany Hayley might have some legally available pepperspray or tear gas.
It is one thing to be frightened by an intimidating, overpowering bureaucracy, but something else all together, as a woman, to encounter a vicious predator. Men have no idea what it is like to be 'the prey,' or, the victim, much less as a person of color. My grandson is of mixed race and I live in Arkansas. We love taking walks in our neighborhood. Most of the time I feel very safe. My closest neighbors and the majority of the people we encounter are extremely kind, friendly people. That said, there have been a few instances where I have felt extremely uncomfortable. Whether walking alone, or, especially with my grandson, who is a toddler ... I always, always carry pepper spray.
Wow😲a new Hayley🤩🤩🤩I think you look better with long hair,but that's just my Personal opinion ! I think it's better if not everyone can easily buy a weapon ! Nevertheless something with weapons happens here again and again ,one is probably nowhere safe! Greetings from Hamburg 😊
08:59 it's the same for me due to having been in the jobseeker-position for a while, at which you are dependend on the state and can risk heavy fines and "Sanktionen" for tiny mistakes at something you have never done before, with unpleasant people without faces, not knowing if they even answer in time or work within certain timeframes, basically feeling like you risk your entiry being - and everything you own - with an unknown dangerous entity.
14:44 the history of workers rights in germany and europe in general is long and bloody; most larger cities have a long history of labour right movements and violent uprisings; most of those laws are written in blood. Additionally, most of germany is pretty socialist, so the attitude is stronger with the worker's side (with reality often being very very different, don't get me wrong). I burn to "ruf aus a Gewerkschaft" on my new job :)
The term "safety" can refer to many different sorts of risks:
1. Crime
2. Natural hazards (climate, geology, dangerous animals...)
3. Human-made hazards (pollution, traffic, ...)
4. Public health (level of hygiene, food safety, access to services...)
5. Government intrusion (privacy violations, corruption, limits to freedom...)
6. Social status/mobility (poverty, discrimination, economic and labor exploitation...)
I (German, male, used to live in the USA a long time ago) think Germany generally scores better on points 1-4 and 6, in part at the expense of 5. Of course, each point can be further detailed.
By and large, I feel totally at ease in Germany, and felt almost always perfectly safe in the USA around 1990. I remember the occasional fear of natural hazards (like spending a few hours in a safe place when there was a tornado warning; almost stepping on a poisonous snake; some torrential rainfalls that I didn't know from Germany back then, but which have become a thing more recently thanks to climate change; seeing hurricane damage first hand). As a bicycle rider, I knew I was on my own and had to ride as if no one could see me or was out to actively kill me. I went through a bad pneumonia for weeks without consulting a doctor because I wasn't sure whether I could afford whatever came of it. And some encounters with homelessness, drug addiction, and hopelessness in black communities that I personally knew no previous equivalent to in Germany. On the other hand, once I was in the country, it was super easy to get established and roam around freely. Little official requirements and over-burdening paperwork beyond getting a student visa.
I am German and I hate to fill out forms ... Or going to the Amt it's scary....
Hey Hayley! I found a great video describing The Singing Tower in Florida, the instrument called the Carillon. I was motivated cuz my husband plays piano, etc, and is a music teacher, and I thought how cool would it be to go to Florida and have him play his favorite music on that tower! Here is the video that explains how it works. It's fascinating! ruclips.net/video/FQCYZQbCaaI/видео.html He came home from work and I said, "I know about Florida now! Are we going?" And he said, "in JULY?" *lol* He's right though. We went to Tunisia last July and that was not easy. Anyway how lucky for me that Disney bought Star Wars cuz that would be my main draw. And I'm sure there's AC. All the sci fi and actual sci (KSC) appeals to me so much! But bitte, ein Hotel ohne iguanas.
hahahaha da sind viele Hotels- you won't have a problem with one lol July will be BRUTAL but you might have luck that disney won't be too full because it is technically hurricane season and the snowbirds will most likely be gone... Just purchase a little plastic poncho from Walmart and you will be ok!!
@@HayleyAlexis I've only been to Pensacola and have never enjoyed a rainstorm as much - I'm a pluviophile. But the humidity kills me so we might postpone Florida to Christmas break. My husband as a teacher only has vacation at school breaks, sadly. So +++flugpreise. But what I learned today, Pensocola is not really Florida so we need to go. Thanks for the help organizing our trip. I cannot wait to show my husband, on google maps, that abominable highway over the ocean. I said, "There's a bridge that goes almost all the way to Cuba." And he said, "You're driving right?" !!!!!!!
I'm really sorry to hear that your closest friends in Germany are not making you feel safe from non-phyisical dangers. I cannot imagine living here and having that to deal with. *hug*
As someone who grew up both in Germany and the US, I agree with you. I left Germany in 2020, because I thought maybe things will be better in the US. Sadly, it's not the case. While there are a few things I don't agree with in Germany, it's a much safer place overall. Certain cities, and spots you do want to avoid over there. I recently moved to Las Vegas with my fiance. He is American, and only knows here. Growing up in Los Angeles, he's seen pretty awful things. We have decided to move to Germany together next year. We are saving money now, and have to do all the paperwork, and passports, since my German passport expired. It's become extremely unsafe in the US, and I never felt that unsafe in Germany. There are pros and Cons everywhere. I miss quite a few things in Germany, and I know my fiance would love it there. I honestly didn't think I would go back to Germany, when I moved to Florida in 2020, but here I am LOL. My fiance and I are both excited, and nervous at the same time. He's never been outside of the US. So yeah, Germany definitely better in that aspect. Many blessings to you over there 🙏

14:00 yes, unfortunately, that often happens at the oktoberfest here in munich, some people who have already had a lot think they could look at the women, because women are basically willing to look under their skirts for whatever, is unfortunately the case when people drink alcohol can't stand it, think you have to forget yourself...... you're not the first, you won't be the last.
But that's what the Munich police are there for, if you need help, you get it, and they are extremely tolerant, what I've experienced with them is funny, I could tell you that separately *g*
Wie schön die Hayley ist wieder zurück, das freut mich sehr, denn ich muss gestehen ich schau mir gerne deinen Content an ..... und die Haare ja die sind eine Überraschung denn davor Glatze dann USA besuch dann Überraschungsbesuch bei deinem Freund mit langen Haaren und jetzt gehts wohl wieder damit weiter, gibs zu du hast das Gewicht der 2 Kilo Haare am Kopf vermisst *fg*
We have unsave places and situations here in Germany. Depends on where you live and where you go. My son was robbed and hurt by ppl two times. So stuff like this happens. But the main difference is, even if you have crimes like robbery, almost noone is using guns beside maybe the few robberys in stores or gas stations. The overall statistics show quite clear, that the possibility getting shot is around 10 times higher in the US then here in Germany. Everyone can look up these statistics free on the internet.
15:05 "2) Learning CPR before getting your _driver's license"_
😳 Meine Güte! Is _that_ the law in Deutschland? I mean, yes, I _know_ CPR. I didn't have to learn it before I got my _driver's_ license. 🤔 It's a good idea, though.
A first aid course is required and cpr is part of the course if I am not mistaken :)
@@HayleyAlexis Yes, I just refreshed my first aid (with CPR) and there were kids in there getting it just for the requirement for their drivers' licences.
Ranking of the 25 cities with the most murder cases per 100,000 inhabitants worldwide in 2022 are almost only in Mexico, US and Brazil, but not one of Europe.
I haven't left the apartment in munich without pepper spray for the first year. I prefer short haired women.
I am a native German and lived in San Diego County for 4 years. I feel much safer in Germany to be honest. When I compare San Diego and Frankfurt this is obvious and even more obvious in smaller cities around Frankfurt.
Anyway, I love California though the burocracy in California is almost odentical to Germany 😅.
So you moved back?

That is a creepy story. I would have thought the same thing - serial killer. You were smart to get the pepper spray.
I think a big difference between US and German cops is the training. Germans who want to become a cop have to get a check up from a psychological doctor to see if they are fitting for the job. German cops have a 36 month training which includes a college degree. US cops need 10 to 12 months......i think it has a lot to do with it......if somebody is trained well and actually fitted for that job or not.
Comparing something like safety regarding locations will always be purely subjective.
Whether you feel safe in a specific location depends on many factors and not necessarily whether you are in a location where people have access to firearms.
That being said, there is of course always a higher risk in a location where people have access to firearms. This also includes potential reactions from law enforcement officers simply because they will know that every time they approach a person, that person could be armed. That is not a normal situation in Germany which is why German police will usually be more open and appear less cautious but to think that they are not aware would be a mistake since German police officers usually undergo much longer training to become police officers than may be the case in many other locations.
Purely statistically, there is no doubt Germany is safer than America. The simple comparison would be simply to compare how many innocent Americans get shot by the police in America compared to the same number in Germany.
The reason is simply that firearms have no place among civilians in a civilized society. More firearms will always result in more incidents with firearms. That's not a theory but merely a fact of life.
@Smiling Shadow Yes, there are over 15 million guns in private ownership in Germany. Gun related homicides and even more so mass shootings are still enough of a rarity in Germany, that it is something that will be reported on in the news nationally for several days or even weeks.
However, here is the kicker, despite an, in 2017, estimated 80 million guns in private ownership in the EU (which at that point still included the UK) and the higher population, it is still dwarfed by the amount of guns in possession in the US. Similarly, gun related crimes are much, much less common than in the US. Homicides, even when taking the entirety of the EU, are still much lower than in the US, e.g. for 2021 Eurostat reported 3,690 homicides in the entirety of the EU, with its 447 million people, whereas the CDC reported, for the same year, 26,031 for the US, with ~332 million people. That's more than seven times the homicides and if we'd adjust that for population difference, that be about 9.4 times as many homicides.
I certainly know that I'll feel safer in most parts of Europe, than in any part of the US.
Where did you get this numbers? The official amount is 5,8 million and there is no real knoweledge on the amount of unregistered firearms
Hi Hayley. I used to work for the german beaurocracy, and I can tell you: it's not quite as bad as its image. Remember, the people who work there are humans just like you, just making their way through life. The don't bear ill will or malice toward you. They just want to get a job done, albeit with strongly worded letters, which may sound unfriendly, but usually have text that the employee didn't even pick or write themselves. Your best strategy: keep calm and pay them a visit. In most places, you will be treated friendly and efficiently.
We don't bite! I promise!
That is so true. I have been living in so many different cities in Germany and around the world and the most important part is to be nice to the government officials, no matter what country. I always say, they just do their job and it is not their fault that the rules are the way they are. So, be nice, smile and interact as a friend and you will always be able to get the job done in any government office. My next stop: Spain. Will see how bureaucracy is there;-)
@@gloofisearch The Auslaenderbehoerde is the same as the DMV in America - they do not care about friendly smiles, they are numb robots from years of abuse. The only way you can get a respectful conversation from them is to have a person with you who speaks perfect diplomatic hochdeutsch who does not back down from their rudeness.
When I first started checking this, the US had more than $20 trillion in national debt and it was growing. Germany had just over $3 trillion, but it was on the way down. Since then, something has changed in Germany, and now it's growing again. I find that discouraging. What happened?
The pandemic. To protect the economy while locking it down the state had to spent a lot of debt to compensate for the damage. And now it is the money necessary to restrengthen our military tht adds to the debt. Obviously we had other plans but with covid and Putin here we are.
So you seem to feel more and more homer over here, right? I have a translation question pls: CPR before driver's licence? Is this what we call "First Aid Course" (=Erste Hilfe Kurs? and would this rather be class instead of course?)
To get into the technicalities of it I think it is a first aid course (I just sometimes use CPR for first aid- I know it's incorrect but I always do it) but course and class are sometimes used interchangeable but actually have different meanings. So yes it would be called first aid course but if we were talking about one particular section in the course it could be called a subject which if you attend a class/classes to teach you that subject it would be called a class which would then in turn equate to a course .......
Long story,...short...it is safer here!
There may be bureaucracy everywhere, but what I hated most about the German version was their often condescending attitude and impolite language. But once I gave it back. They had claimed that we claimed children's allowance twice, which was simply untrue. So I wrote back in their own language: "...fordere ich Sie auf, ihre Behauptung sofort zurückzunehmen da ich anderenfalls ein Bußgeld gegen Sie verhängen werde." (~"..I urge you to withdraw your allegation immediately, otherwise I will impose a fine on you".) It was great fun!
On a serious note -> about the pepper spray or any other type of weapons.
1st only certain types are allowed in Germany and you can use them only in Notwehr /self defense.
2nd use it only if you know how to use it . If you carry a weapon and don´t know how to handle it means it that either you hurt yourself or your opponent can grab it from you and use it against you.
There are good self defense classes that you can attend where you learn the basics and what you can do in certain situation. Most of the time you react too late before the first assault.
eg I did several times the Krav Maga Women´s self defense class. You really have to repeat from time to time and not forget it.
Punching the guys in the face , was not self defense. If that went to a court , maybe you could have got a sentense.
In your case I would just go directly to the police and stand next to them.
Drunk people are dangerous and unpredictable. Always avoid them.
If you were at night going home and he attacks you and then you punch him, then you could argue with self defense.
The story with the creepy guy sounds like a lot of stuff I experienced here in Germany :( got also assaulted and harrassed to a point where I couldn't think it away with "its just an outliner" anymore. Developed social anxiety and got my drivers license bc I dont want to use public transport anymore
every sec-guard ,waiter ,worker and so on will help you when needed just ask for the way to PANAMA ,,, a code for all employes on festval or concert that there is someone that`s needing help now
Hayley is killing birds :)
I am Feeling tue same way as a German in my First visit of Sweden. I look my car Two times. Later i understand that the Swedish People put there full Bags in Front of the door of the Next store. Never in my live i Feel so stupid... Yes was countryside ...
Schweden hatte 2022 die höchste Mordrate in Europa aufgrund der stark angestiegen Bandenkriminalität. Im Jahresschnitt wurde jede Woche eine Person erschossen.
A path full of snakes and crocodiles? That would scare me most.
omg you got really big!
you really created your channel today... to tell me I got big? Obsession!!! Keep watching and keep commenting it helps me tremendously! Kisses
@@HayleyAlexis I dont have my channel for a few months. 🤣
@@raven93708 It shows when you created your channel on your profile- I can see a lot here on my side of RUclips. You created it the day you left that comment- like I said- you are obsessed with me and it is so flattering to know someone thinks about me all day to create profiles to leave me comments over and over
Hearing your story of Oktoberfest and being from Munich myself makes me ask myself, if there is some 'civil courage' in the US where some uninvolved person might have interfered with the guy who got after you in order to protect you? This is what my friends and I would do if we notice a girl getting chased and even groped inappropriately and she clearly shows she does not consent like you did by yelling at the guy and if there are service numbers in the US you could call when you are walking home alone in the dark lie we have here in Germany.
Regarding safety in the US:Me and my wife have been to the US only once and we try to get around any upcoming visits because we felt rather unsafe over there although we also tried not to go into sketchy areas at all.
In Germany there's nothing wrong with giving a toygun to a child living next to a police station.
Germany is super safe. There is literally not even a need for a lot of police presence on the streets. German police officers
also almost never use force - I think there were like 3 people killed by German police in the entirety of last year. Heard from
a lot of cases where officers didn't fire their gun outside of training during their entire 40 years career within the German police force which is
nuts if you compare it to almost weekly shootings in the US.
i feel really safe in Germany.
Well... here in Germany... many times someone came to me in the streets asking: can you give me 50€, my car brake down - i need gasoline, by a ticked... what ever...LOL
Didn't the police help you at the Oktoberfest? They saw that those guys were attacking you.
The safety difference between us and germany:
Having a nice walk at the cannal seeing aligators😂 that was the point I got scared 😊
Germany is the 6th country I've lived and worked in. I wouldn't call it the safest of the countries where I've lived, but I like it enough to want to emigrate here. Living in the States again is out of the question.
I'm from San Diego- "America's Finest City", and I never want to live there again:(
I also just learned two weeks ago that the mall within walking distance of my brother's home (in Allen, Texas) just became another casualty of the mass shooting epidemic in the Deluded States of America. My brother and his 13-year-old daughter both heard the gunshots from their backyard. A 6-year old boy in my parents' state of Virginia pulled a gun out of his book bag and shot his teacher in the middle of class.
In 2019, my friend's daughter was shot at by a mass shooter at Saugus HS in Los Angeles (she wasn't hit, thank God). The same year, a 19-year-old nursing student and concert pianist from Cal State San Marcos University carried an AR-15 rifle into the Chabad Synagogue 1.6 miles from my house in North County, San Diego and shot the rabbi along with several other worshippers and their children.
In 2007, my youth pastor was shot in the head in his engineering class at Virginia Tech.
I am done with the Deluded States of America. I wouldn't call it a real country, but if it were, it wouldn't be a "first-world" country... not that there is any such thing as "first-world".
The existence of this "debate" over a need for a visible police presence in schools is _baffling_ to me. I graduated from high school in the '90's. There were laws in place that effectively restricted access to _guns._ Accordingly, schools were a safe place. Don't tell me it doesn't work. I know, from experience, that it _does._ Did we have to undergo training about how to protect _ourselves?_ No. The _government_ protected us.
The same government that had a balanced _budget_ because the wealthy shouldered their share of the _tax_ burden. Federal funds were for college _education_ so people could go on to higher paying _jobs_ and move into higher _tax_ brackets, and so help generate _more_ tax revenue to help bring down the national debt and generate _more_ money to help pay for college education to help _more_ people get college education and qualify for higher paying jobs and move into higher tax brackets.
Fun Fact Germany has the most private owned guns in Europe,but they have to go to tests that would make Republicans gringe :P
For example they have to pass regular mental health tests in oder to keep there license.
You are afraid of German bureaucracy? Well, the French one is on the same level...
I feel definetly safer in Germany where not every imbacile is allowed to own an gun. The problem is sometimes the policeforce itself. They put de-escalation before inforcing the law only to avoid paperwork or conflicts. I had to call the police some times in the last years because of extremly loud parties from youngsters in the mid of the week until 3 o'clock. I had to get up at 5 and worked in a job where human lifes could depend on my fitness. Instead of inforcing the party people to stop, they tried to de-escalate. I had to remind them what they are here for (law inforcement) and told them I would inform the commissioner and illustrated them the consequences if they did not inforce the law. Finally that worked, due to our history law inforcment in some parts is an bit weak today an a lot of people clolor and origin do not matter) do not respect police officers. Something I never saw in the US. Even notric big mouth people like Donald Trump do obey the orders of an officer.
I know what you mean concerning violence and hostility toward police officers (and first responders) increasing in Germany, but Trump is the prototype of a guy who would not obey. He would require the police officers to enforce the law by violent means and would call his supporters upon being arrested. This guy is the anti-thesis to anyone with law compliant behaviour. He did boast to be able to kill anyone on "the 5th avenue" and get away with that, didn't he? He is the "law doesn't apply to me" guy.
The difference in the perception of police is also shaped by history. Germany had probably the worst police state ever existing with the Nazi regime and then East Germany had even more of that sort. So Germans often feel uncomfortably with visible police presence.
When you live in a place where , Everyone, Anyone, you can SEE, has a Gun! You probably should not feel safe. In Florida , All humans, can have a Gun, without applying for a permit. In Germany, I don't expect my neighbor, or his child to pull out a Gun, just because I looked at the big Dent on my car door,
where the Dad just hit my car. That how it is to live in America. Especially Florida. Deutschland is a safe haven.
Most people in the USA think Florida is the weirdest state.
it is.... lmao
As to "how does location change your perspective" - a lot of that sounds pretty horrible and also very sad to me and I am sorry that children even have to live with the prospect of getting killed by the very people who had sworn to protect you...
I am sad about the fact, that almost every video has to start with a disclaimer.
Of course you are talking about your experience, of course you can not talk for every US-american, German, whatever. For me it would be ok, without these disclaimer. Maybe you and all other creaters can force "RUclips" to make a disclaimer, which state this.
Since the last couple of incidents in the US, I'm done with the US in regards of wanting to live there.
Getting shot and killed, because accidentaly knocking on the wrong front door, or turning into the wrong driveway is something I can't wrap my head around.
In addition to that, the whole "woke" discussion and abortion bans pisses me off.
And finally, banning books. I know a regime which also banned and burned books. One of the steps further down that path would be gas chambers.
I've seen so many people in the US struggling to get along. Becoming poor and homeless can happen a lot faster and easier than here.
The risk of loosing no only your job, but also your house and your health is omnipresent.
German and EU bureaucracy is horrible and begins to threaten the economy.
12:31 Florida - that's where Ted Bundy ended his carreere, right?
I guess.... you .... can..... spin it like that lmao
And DeSantis starts to be next Mr. President Florida Man
His new law makes it easier to carry guns in FL. with the participation of the NRA.
He was planning on furthering his reach, but FL was the end point. The start point was my city and I've walked on the trails he dumped his victims, I was a student at his Uni and feel sick that he tricked everyone he worked with, his boss, and his GF. He was addicted and FL was the furthest stretch of his arm. He took advantage of the helping, nurturing nature trained into girls; at the time we only thought to help the helpless and not suspect danger.
@@HayleyAlexis In other words, that's perhaps _the_ state where danger is most obviously present to minds?
@@LythaWausW _"at the time we only thought to help the helpless and not suspect danger."_
Pretty much.
How much has he reversed it, by his bad example?
this was so... explanatory for a lot of things for a german. lots of people here are starting to building up this kind of shell because they think there are so much threats, but i think its the media whos pushing this fear. German Angst gets a revival atm. pretty sad
Bitte verraten Sie mir Ihr Haarwuchsmittel !
All that violence is predominantly directed against women and they want us scared and docile. That’s why that creep scared you into buying pepper spray. Maybe in his head he was thinking even that he was doing you a favor. I would have asked him why HE was walking there, what’s the difference in the level of danger for any of you.
