Thanks
@@germaninvenice that was amazing from you and thanks for us to look at your photos and match your photos from real life I can see myself doing that as 25 years old that would be fun for me
I think that children grew up better in the past. I grew up in the 80s, was in nature a lot, climbed trees and built simple huts out of wood without my parents controlling me much. I think this is healthy for the own development. Today, children are over-controlled and over-protected, especially in the U.S., and they spend too much time indoors, which is poison for their personal development and mental health
A lot of Americans don’t like going outside so that’s why schools are not closed
US is very suburbanized, its intentionally spread out like England. Be in your own bubble,comfort, safety car ; drive to work and come home and then to shop. A lot of Puritans founded America, so theres that .. The only places that are not like that in the US are the cities that were founded by Mexicans & Spanish like Los Angeles, San Francisco, Colorado, San Antonio, New Mexico their infastructure was founded inspired by Spain and Colonial Mexicos design.. which is why California and Texas , New Mexico and Colorado are so expensive, americans want to live in those regions because they feel so human. A lot of californians are being priced out,
rather than move to the Midwest and East Coast where its cheap, they are moving to Mexico and Spain(EU) because the planning in Mexico is more designed for community/neighboruly intentions not for stranger danger commute to work to avoid strangers and go home to a boring surban place.
Which is why the Prince of England moved to my hometown of Santa Barbara CA, much of our city was founded before the US and everything is geared towards nature and healthy living.
When I moved to Dallas i saw firsthand suburbanization, nice at first because of the peace, but it gets boring quick. Its also the weather too.
Guess thats just a problem in the USA and the parents fault - Not the Kids.🙄
It's you, the parent, who give the kids a Smartphone, Laptop, PC, Console or whatever.
Here, in germany - almost everywhere you just have a small walk or drive and you are 'in nature' so many kids spend their time outside or grow up with 'nature all around them'.
Its typical for german schools (like 1st-4th class) and kindergarten to learn about nature and spend a lot of time outside.
I was born in 88 - Spend my time outside but also fell in love with PC's and gaming. 🤷♂️
Nothing wrong with that - if you control you kids or don't - thats your fault.
Watch what they are doing online, don't let them spend to much time online, go outside WITH them and let kids be kids.
I heard storys and read many comments of americans FREAKING OUT that german parents (or i guess europe in general) let there kids at the age of 6-8 go all alone to school, or the playground, sports ground
and so on.
If you don't have access to a forest or no 'nature' around - you have to get in a car and drive - be active with your kids.
@@carn1fex_ a lot of Americans don’t want children to use technology but when someone has one then children want technology
@@carn1fex_ Germany is not a diverse country unlike brazil
You’re a great story teller. Really enjoyed this one GIV.
He should have turned around so we could see more of his new school backpack .
Ich bin 1982 ausgeschult worden und meine Klassenphotos sehen genau so aus!
Auch meiner Mutter hat mich aus dem Fenster gerufen, wenn ich zum Essen kommen sollte!
War eine tolle Zeit, wir hatten soviel Spaß und haben immer was neues entdeckt!
You are a movie start man, WE SEE YOU LIKE ONE OF THEM, YOU ARE SO FAMOUS NOW.
Great video! It's crazy how I can watch a 30 minute Netflix show with a million dollar budget.... or a GIV 30 minute video with Mike and his phone visiting his old stomping grounds and be just as entertained! I recently revisited my schools from the 80's and it truly does bring up memories long forgotten.
I’m glad you’re watching the GIV😂👍thanks
I'm not sure why seeing why seeing where GIV grew up is so compelling, but for some reason it is. Perhaps because we then think about our own journeys.
I’m not sure either
I think so, in a way it can be some sort of cautionary tail for everyone. We need to use the time we have on this planet
Hi Michael..you ARE where you are supposed to be and where you were MEANT to be. You just took a different path there. What would we do without our GiV? You are very good at emotional intelligence and social intelligence and other types of 'smarts'.. did you really want to be an academic in an office? Nah..it ended up exactly as it should.
I like the backstories of GIV very interesting, GIV is a credit to where he came from and hes putting his home town on the map to many people, he should be on the tourist board as an honorary member!
I graduated high school in Texas in the 1980s and you have inspired me to back to the old school and visit. Thanks!
Mike, I Am So Grateful that you stayed in Germany to spend time with your Beautiful Mom💜👸💜 Please, Keep sharing these Special Memories with us🌟 They are Priceless💫 I am Loving every second!💙💙💙
What a nice treat, you sharing your childhood memories with all of us!
I’m so glad you decided to stay in Germany for a little longer, I’ve been enjoying the vlog and Germany seems to be a safe and peaceful place to be. It seems people actually care about their country (unlike here in America I’m scared to walk down the street).
The fear is in your head,and you are irrational
if the world just had more people like GIV happy go lucky and willing to share his family, home and life with us thanks!
Total nostalgia is a wonderful thing! You are as about as real and genuine as they come. I love Deutschland, and lived in Panzer Kaserne from 79-81, and Baumholder from 88-90. My most prominent memories as a child are from Germany. I'm second generation from my migration on Father's side, Bavarian area, last name is German, and my grandmother barely spoke English. While in Baumholder, and the area, I personally found Nazi money, Mercedes Benz from WW2 Stuck in the ground with trees grown through them died, huge living trees grown up, and no trails or markers anywhere around. In that location outside of town I found a piece of Nazi helmet and a full pistol stuck mostly in the ground that was just metal full of mud and worms.
Hey Michael. I never commented on your videos. They are all precious to watch, but this time like to make a comment on this one because it touched my heart and soul.
Some teachers effectuate or discourage their negativity at the early stage of their students developments but they really don't mean it.
It all connects to HOME with your parents and your environments you grew up with.
I will never forget this day, I was in 5th grade, my science teacher told a few of the students "you are slow", she didn't mean slow like Brain Deficiency slow, she just wanted to make her point that we were behind and she was helpless to do something about us.
To make the story short, after 35 years my best friend and I from the same class walked down the street we recognized our 5th grade science teacher, we approached and introduced ourselves, we greeted each other and we remembered her of those dark memories, she was completely in denial, which was very disappointed and heart wrenching for us. We told her we are both computer program engineers and we are happily married with lots of children, and she said she was married to one of our teachers...who would have thought they had an eye for each other for all these mysterious years?!
Thanks for the story
@@germaninvenice I've been to Germany three times. I've seen all the cities and of course the castles, but I admired Heidelberg the most. I'm not American, I'm just a super carious gig. I noticed only Americans could have grills in their apartment balconies and American licence plates were a big show off in 1997. As I was driving I saw the "I❤Elvis" licence plate, the driver was a young black woman. Is it possible Elvis been in Heidelberg? I'm asking because I know you are a big fan of Elvis like me. I've been to Graceland Memphis twice.
@@sirunikunushik7735 Heidelberg was the command center of the US Army in Germany after the Nazis were defeated IiRC. So it could be since he was in the army (as shown in GIVs earlier videos).
Well , you are like a movie star 🌟. Love your videos!!!! Gracias
Du bist unser persönlicher Filmstar, mein Freund. Ich bin ein 70-jähriger Mann und hoffe, dass ich so werde wie du.
Everything is so tiny when you go back to Grammer school days. Stay safe GIV!
I was watching the nightly news, and it was AWFUL! So I saw your latest video and feel much more relaxed. Thank you..
Mission accomplish
We always say "if I only knew then what I know now. "I love these trips down memory lane with you, and what a good looking kid you were! You were not heavy but you had a big build. It's amazing you even have photos to match up for this...incredible! Wouldn't it be amazing if this Yvonne girl saw this and contacted you? YVONNE! If you are there call GIV! Leave a message here! I know how you feel about being younger and now, if I only could have some of the energy that I had then. This trip and stories have been real nice, say hi to mom!
😂👍
I started working in a German restaurant/bar last month. Here in Bend Oregon. Beautiful mountains. Town.
Sooo love this video! It is wonderful to "walk with you on your life's journey"! The school and the beautiful greenery are amazing. GIV, you are a class act. To me, it is brave of you to leave your homeland and come to a country that has different cultural ways and so far away from your FANTASTIC MAMA!! We, out here in internet land, are so lucky to enjoy your videos! YOU ROCK!! Have a great day and PEACE OUT!!! ❤✌✌👍👍❤
Hello Mike.. It's been awhile but I never forget you.You have brought so MUCH ENTERTAINMENT AND INFORMATION AND KEPT US HAPPY WITHOUT BOREDOM..NEVER A DULL MOMENT ON ALL YOR VIDEOS..PLEASE KEEP ALL THE BEAUTIFUL GERMANY VIDEOS COMING..I THEY ARE ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL MIKE I FELT I WAS ACTUALLY THERE..I ONLY WISH I WAS THERE..I LIVE GERMANY VERY MUCH...THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING AND KEEP THEM COMING.
SINCERELY YOUR LOYAL SUBSCRIBER HERE IN LOS ANGELES..BE SAFE ALL MY BEST ALWAYS TO YOU.😊
I can relate to your video as I left my country seven years ago, and even living in my country I never had any chance to visit few places of my childhood. December 2021, I went to my country for vacations, went to my childhood places to recall the amazing beautiful memories, I cried a lot. Even back in home after the visit, talking with mom and eyes full of tears that many things changed. It was beautiful and amazing. Thanks for this video it was really nice.
Thank you for sharing your walk down memory lane.
Interesting, it brings back a lot of memories! I miss the good old times, we were so hopeful for a great future.
And so much changed.
I went to the Freie Waldorfschule in Krefeld, a private school, and I hated it.
Yes, I was always concentrated to a possibility to go to the US, and ended up as an exchange student in California in 1975/1976 and after that went to Mexico. To be clear: Sometimes, I wish "to turn back times".
Thank you GiV, for representing a part of your childhood and youth.
Stay well and take care 🙂.
You are doing great! I was told I wouldn't make it two months in college - - a few years later I showed them my masters degree.
Awesome
Same .
What an awesome trip down old memory lane. Thanks for sharing
German in Venice.. LOVED this video.. Beautiful Schools and beautiful settings .... and Wonderful stories !!! i don't think you made the wrong decision about not going to USA school because of a girl. AND please don't beat yourself up about your life's path.. You are a VERY BiG DEAL to me and a very important part of my life. You now have 280k followers and are an outstanding U Tuber. ! i just wish you were more mindful of your weight as we don't want to lose you. You were so amazingly athletic as a youth.. much more than i was !! Thank You for being You !!!
Love these German videos! The Germans truly have a special spirit! Request to go to the German Equivalent of a dollar store!
It looks like a good life. Thanks for sharing.
Same .
yup, the 80's were a good time to be a kid
Mike can make a interesting video on pretty much anything
Hi Michael. No, on the contrary it was very interesting following you around your old young haunts and so interesting seeing the various pictures you took at that time comparing to the present. Thanks for sharing :)
Schönes Video.
Ich schwelge auch täglich in Erinnerungen an die gute alte Zeit.
Die 80/90 waren einfach traumhaft.
Da war die welt noch in ordnung.
Macht mich täglich traurig.
Zum Glück kann einem niemand die Erinnerungen nehmen.
As others have commented its great to go back to where you grew up. When supper was ready my mother would also come out on the back porch and call my name. Loud enough that the small town I grew up in probably heard her. Things have changed, the school had been been added on to and the house I grew up in has been painted many different colors since we moved away. My friends and I when all over town in the summer and only returned home later in the day. No one worried about us, and everyplace was so safe for children to explore and play and ride our bikes. We had cable TV, but only had about 14 channels, mostly just TV stations in the area.
This video tops all your videos....I wish I had just a photograph of my school days from the 1940's through the 1950's. My high school was in a 15 story building and I took the elevator to class every day and got to know the elevator lady. Then 40 years later I decided to visit the building which was scheduled to be torn down and encountered the same elevator operator of my childhood and she let me see my old class room....the building was demolished shortly after my visit. I wish I had a camera back then as I have no photos of those years. I loved the tour of your school buildings and all your photographs that you have of when you were a young kid. Thanks G.I.V. (Walt in Miami)
A high school on the 15th floor, wow,I don't think we have schools that high up here in Germany
I have photos of my old schools but the buildings were all demolished to make place for new developments so there's no point in going back and reminiscing. Standing in a shopping mall where my old school used to be is not the same.
They must have had an old elevator because self use elevators (with buttons) were in use by the 1940s. Today elevator operators are only found in some old luxury hotels and apartment buildings.
@@Ozymandias1 The building was constructed in the late 20's or in the 30's and it was a trade high school. Trade school was up to the 10th floor and the floors above was a hotel. Walt

Mike you do have a good memory to be able to recall your first day at kindergarten. Thanks for the interesting video.
I can remember my first day in kindergarten too . My big sister took me there because my mom hand to work . I was petrified !
Oh the things our moms made us wear! Like we were dress up doll sometimes. I had many homemade shirts.
We learned Are You Sleeping? in French (Frère Jacques) and the German version (Bruder Jakob)
Do what you ENJOY and you will never feel like you are working.
You're good at this and seem to enjoy it! I still think you should pursue media credentials.
i miss the 80s life was so much simpilar than now.
Hi Michael, wonderful memories. Thank you for sharing. Bless your heart.
Hey Mike I also have a picture of me with a "Schultüte," going to school in Aschaffenburg in 1954 many great memories, I enjoyed you trip down memory Lane. GIWPB
Thank you for sharing these special moments. You are terrific. I always enjoy your videos. Each and everyone. 💕
Okay, playing table tennis with yourself is totally Worth all the back to school home movies stuff.... awesome effect!!
Do some fun editing with your Mom 😂😂
What can I say....you got me looking through old photos!!! Great video man!!!!!!!!
I have to admit the grocery stores, You're adventure with your friend. Your time with your mother, this video of the school is my favorite. This is what I like to watch, and you're very entertaining when telling your story. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for the tour down the path of memory. I am your age and I think many of us wish we knew then what we know now, and made different decisions. But you did make your dream of moving to America. And you live in LA. And you have a pretty successful RUclips channel.
I'm glad you stayed in Germany longer to share more videos. It's a beautiful place and I miss being able to visit my family there. As a young man, my father came to the US from (Niedersachsen) Germany in 1956. We moved from the US and lived in Bavaria when I was 4 and 5 years old and those memories have never left me. I have loved mountains my whole life since then. I hope at some time in my life I will see it all again in person. Again, thank you for sharing.
I lived and studied for a little bit in Germany; I was in Fulda, Hessen. My favourite part of Germany, because there are so many wonderful memories I have there and so many fantastic people. I really miss Germany a lot.
You said it yourself *GIV* it's the beginning of your journey ...that's why we watched
Everything was so much simpler then. Great memories. Thanks so much GIV!
Thanks for sharing your youthful glory days with us. We all have regrets from our youthful years. However, we wouldn’t be who we are without those stages of life. I think you turned out great GIV. Stay cool,& safe. Hello to your mom.💯❤️👍🏾😀🙋🏽♀️✝️🙏🏾🇺🇸🎆🇺🇸🎇
LOVE TO SEE YOUR BACKGROUND...THE PING PONG...YOUR TEACHERS, YOUR FIRST LOVE, AND NO CELL PHONES...THANK YOU, I HAD A SMILE THROUGH THE WHOLE VIDEO.
Mike, thanks for this "walk down memory lane". I really enjoyed seeing your old schools and your apartment building where you grew up. We can't change the past but we can appreciate and enjoy the present. All of our experiences whether good or bad have led us to where we are now. You can be grateful for the many blessings that you can enjoy now, good friends, a good Mom, an interesting but challenging occupation and good health. Take care and have a pleasant and rewarding weekend. 👍🤗❤️🙏🌎
Crazy that your high school was basically untouched for so many years. I was the first freshman class in 2001at my school and its already having renovations.
Now you're a RUclips star! Cool video, Mike.
Thank you. Keep doing what you're doing. This is real . A wonderful walk through time. God bless you.
GiV I always find your videos soothing no matter what the subject. thanks for sharing this video on your personal history 👍
I agree, the videos have a soothing and grounding effect
Mom knows how to style clothes!🌟✨🥰 I like your outfit 👍🏽❣️
Thank you GIV! I really enjoyed this episode your memories are so fun to listen to. Thank you so much for sharing this part of your Life with us!
I enjoy your tours and stories that’s awesome 🥰
Everyone has regrets despite it all you are living your dreams. Thank you for this trip down memory lane I've gone this way as well. God works in mysterious ways. Thank you from America 🇺🇸.
Wish I would have had a school like that.
Thank you for another great video! I love seeing your old “stomping grounds”!
hi Mike my name is Steve and I really like your videos and enjoy everyone that you make in Germany so my grandparents came from Slovakia so I have some feelings toward Germany and they're good so keep making videos
HOLA MIKE THE GIV YOU ARE THE STARR.
WITHIN A VERY ANCIENT COSMIC SPIRITUAL
JOURNEY.... each moment is very precious.
LOVE YOUR ARTISTIC CREATIVE ENERGY
GRACIAS
DRIVE SAFE GIV MIKE
Keep the video’s coming. Most everyone wishes they could turn back time. Now you have me thinks about my school days many years ago. Thank you.
You grew up and moved to America & you are our GIV Movie Star🤩
I love how simple you are, God bless you bro
Very nice! Great to hear more about your past. You are a star GIV!
Memories stay with us forever....🤗
I found this video very interesting! I love seeing all your videos from Germany. I also like the Venis ones because I used to live near there.
Germany is a lovely country, I never feel threatened or afraid there like I do in American cities. Germans are proud, honest and hardworking people, they work together to improve their nation, not so much with the USA.
Great to see your childhood. Very cool.
Class of 1984 . Awesome !! I wonder if GiV ever read George Orwell's book , Nineteen Eighty-four ?
This was great I love visiting my old school grounds
all your videos are great, even this one.... ha ha. i have learned a lot about Germany through you so thank you. we all have memories so can relate to you. Life is like a box of chocolates............
Loved this SO much Mike. 😊 thank you, as I said before I’ve been a host mum for German Students for over 20 years but I had never ever seen inside a German school, how lovely your schools are. And the flats where you lived, so clean and smart, very very impressed…In the first photo it shows you on your first day at school holding the cone filled with sweets and my students told me about this tradition I would love you and your mum to show us how these are filled it’s something so unique to Germany and such a lovely tradition. thank you once again for the video 😊🇬🇧🇬🇧. 🇩🇪
I totally forgot to talk about this
So cool I can’t wait to go to see where my oma and dad lived back in Yugoslavia. Love this stuff you are posting
Why I watch at 73?
Love to see through your viewpoint.
There is so much to see and appreciate with humanity.
I’m a Montessori teacher and it was really fun to hear similar stories from another former Montessori child. You did enjoy school! Otherwise, you wouldn’t have been able to make a beautiful narration of your childhood.
Long live "the good old days"!
Grate to see Your school , here in south Africa it looks very different but actually very similar like that klimraam of wood in the gim .
It’s always cool to go back down memory lane. Viel liebe von Woodland Hills!! 👍🏻🔥
Thank you so much bro for sharing where you live and where you went to school that is so awesome I always wanted to see other countries schools and Germany looks like a beautiful place have a great evening and be safe bro sincerely Suszie ❤️
He is just amazing.
I really like learning more about your life. Thank you for showing us GIV 👍🏼
Loved it Mike.!!! We All Have the Same Memories. And that one Teacher that Said we Would never be anything!! But we proved them wrong.!!! Keep up the Good Work!!!
Wunderbare kostbare Erinnerungen. Ihr habt das Glück, eure Geschichte zu erleben.
Memories Sweet Memories..
I'm glad you were able to get back there and reminisce about the days gone by. I'm glad you proved that teacher wrong.
Golden times my brother,
Thanks for sharing 😎😎😎
Germany is a beautiful country, i love all the greeneries😀
Good memories- made me recall my childhood memories as well...
Very interesting. Loved it. The people today don't have freedom in their hearts. They love control. Thanks for sharing and letting us reminisce about the 70's and 80's. When kids could still be kids and adults loved kids and neighbours were real neighbours.
We are interested in your life GIV. Enjoyed the video very much. It is nice to go back to your child hood and happy days. Before we grew up and found out how the world really is!
So awesome to get a look into your childhood.
Great video! TY…you’re definitely a star in my book🌟🌟🌟👍
You're so awesome!! Thanks for always being so upbeat and positive!! Great video.
Nice video.its always good to look back at stuff. Yup.a different time back then.. now kids don't know how fum it is playing outside.
Hey, ich hab auch mal Zeit in Krefeld verbracht
