You seem genuinely curious so I'll try to give you a quick run-down. I've lived outside the states multiples time, but this last Fall I moved to Vienna and it was a real culture shock. I don't really think I'm over it. Its certainly different moving to a city with your girlfriend and I think that would help you a lot. My main issue with German is it isn't simply a language, its a way of being. You have to understand they operate on this archaic bartering system that is meant to circumnavigate the use of money and avoid taxes. That leaves you dependent on social currency in order to get a job, find an apartment, or to just live your goddamn life. Europeans truly share everything and its a little messed up, ngl.
Thank you for your response. Since I’m based in New York, my goal is to keep my current job and work remotely. This would allow me to earn a New York salary while living in Germany. As for the lifestyle differences, from an American perspective, moving between states can sometimes feel like entering a different country. While we all speak English, the cultural differences can be striking. For instance, New York and Arkansas are worlds apart in terms of pace, attitudes, and lifestyle.
@@LuiDorm Haha! Yeah I like your point. I was once bright-eyed and optimistic as well. As you can imagine I have mixed feelings. Though with your New York job I think you'll be just fine. Also, its definitely worth viewing Germany and Europe as primarily a tourist. For me that's helped me enjoy everything it has to offer. The experience too of seeing the other side also really deepens your sense of personal identity and I'm sure it will do the same for you as well. Don't take anything personally and good luck!
Never thought i would hear this dude talk like this, keep it up Lui!
