just out of curiosity . How are Germans as neighbors are they Noisy or respectful?
Welcome to the club! My parents took me to southern Germany in 1960. What happened? A few years later I met a German girl and what can I say in two years is a golden wedding. Like me, you learned that Germany, with a few exceptions, is an island of the blessed and you have come to appreciate the open, liberal society here. My advice: STAY HERE forever. And don't stop with the videos, they are an enrichment, this external view of us.
Thank you and thanks for sharing your story!
I don’t get why you dont want to learn German. You are Living in germany. Without learning the language you will Never Unterstand us.
And it’s really disrespectful.
But i am glad that you are happy living here. Keep up the good Videos 🙂
It is only disrespectful if you take it that way
@@mattromero4864 No it's disrespectful however you take it
@@Joe-ok8ql And German is a very easy language to learn if one's first language is English. I mean, if an English speaker can't learn German, then.....they're lying.
@@ianfleischhacker6154 It is very easy. I began learning German in high school (still not the best) and it's not hard to grasp. You have to try to not learn German if you're surrounded by it.
i thought she was trying to learn German given the fact she is in Germany
Many things in Berlin last forever... like the construction of their "new" airport ;)
Yes that is becoming an international joke about Germans, Germans are known for efficiency and effectiveness and durability but that airport construction is becoming a joke. Even turkey had a better airport but I guess we know why, lots of doner money goes to turkey under the table.
Not to talk about train stations like in Stuttgart...
surprising about your airport...it's not something expected in Germany
and the ignorance of the population
Mainly Storys :D
My son lives in Germany and loves it! He’s fluent in German and in masters program at a university
dont let those negative comments get to you, diana. im sure you are doing great in berlin and im really envious of you. i could never move to another country even tho i would love to do that! but like, in germany i have my safe job and even bought an apartment recently so theres no way i could give that up :( enjoy your life here! im sure berlin is really amazing (i come from the south - countryside)
You seem to be a great person. Canada's loss is Germany's gain. I am an immigrant too (from Brazil to Canada, 30 years ago) and I visit Germany every year for vacation. I love Canada and Germany is my second love, so I completely understand you. Happy anniversary in that BEAUTIFUL country!
Good for you. I moved to Germany from the UK 40 years ago.... the best thing I ever did.
Awesome to hear 😊 thanks for watching! 🇩🇪
Why is better than the UK you think?
@@anneboleyn4175: Better salary, better health care, better pensions, longer holidays, easier travel within Europe, less xenophobia, cheaper cars (20%), reliable services, access to other cultures, efficient bureaucracy (surprise!). Will that do for a start?
@@pierrebuffiere5923 I love the UK.
I've got many long term friendships over there and I'm there about 3 times a year.
@@pierrebuffiere5923 but I know what you're on about.
Thanks for the video. Your enthusiasm for Berlin is contagious.
Thank you! And thanks for watching every week 😊
Young Lady, my deepest respect for you and your boyfriend. Hut ab.
Hi, welcome to Germany !! I hope that you enjoy your stay, and please keep up posting your videos !
Every couple I know that moved to Berlin broke up shortly after. I don't know why...
Wow 😅😂🙈
We will never ever let you go again, Diana ♥️ & Josh ♥️
Love your videos!!
Aww thanks Bea!! ❤️
Nonono, Thank YOU for the nice videos the last 3 years...
good to hear germany helped you to be more open minded you already was and your personality to be able to flourish in this time.
keep it up and enjoy! all the other followers will agree with me that we're looking forward to many years of your excellent videos!
Great to hear that you feel so well in Berlin! I confess, I would never move there forever, only for a weekend-trip. The crime-rate in Berlin is fairly high, the employment-situation is difficult and the Berlin people are often rude (they don not mean it bad, it is just their way to talk "Berliner Schnauze"). But everyone have a different taste and different needs, my happy-place is Hamburg (the most beautiful town in Germany).
Crime rates in Hamburg and Berlin are pretty much the same if you look at statistics. In terms of jobs it also depends. Berlin is the IT capital of Europe there are a lot of startups here and jobs as well. I work with a guy from Hamburg he says that he likes Hamburg more but it's easier to find a good-paying job here in Berlin.
People are definitely different that's for sure.
Hamburg is my second favorite city though :) It's pretty nice especially when it's warm.
@@nicktankard1244 In Berlin I would not dare to use some trains and subways (especially S6, S8 in the evening), in this town brutal street-gangs have become a big problem. In Hamburg we have this problem only in some quarters of the town (Jenfeld, Billstedt, Steilshoop). Luckily, in nearly 20 years I never got in any trouble here in Hamburg (and never got witness of anything).
@@janpracht6662 yeah i just read the statistics for the crime. I've been living in Berlin for a year now and i absolutely feel safe anytime anywhere.S6 doesn't exists since 2002. I took S46 and S8 in the evening multiple times and everything was ok. Of course 1 year is not much but still.
Hamburg Reeperbahn is crazy though. I've never seen anything like that :)
@@nicktankard1244 Only tourists make party on Reeperbahn. It is expensive and nearly everywhere they try to steal yor money or to cheat you (who pays in some Bars or Clubs with credit card: bad luck, probably they will f* you and book 2000 Euro from your account). The "
curb swallows" are fairly offensive and always grope after you, not very enjoyable as man.
When I make party I go to Barmbek or Altona, that is much better. You have more fun and it is not so exhausting.
I dont like germany :D . only a few of my forever friends.
You're a damn inspiration Fräulein!
I will love to se more tips for moving videos.
Hi Diana, Glad to hear that you follow your own path and enjoy it. May you address few top questions?
1. May you suggest on what are the legal way(s) for US citizen to stay in Germany for over 90 days? As a tourist I may visit Germany for only 90 days, but I want to live there for years. What options are available?
I have the means to support myself, no assistance from local German government will be required.
2. Germany is very strict on working visas. What about the following scenario: One lives in Germany, but works remotely for the corporation which is in USA? Extend on this is you know the limitation of such setup.
3. Is one staying in Germany but working for non German organization and not applying for any local assistance is a subject for double taxation?
Freue mich für euch... Good luck on the way
Yes, now you decided to stay here,
I only can gratulate you. And you know,
with us germans, you better mean what you say. Otherways we are not ok with it.
:-)
I'm also coming to Germany very soon... Yeh yeh😇
get rady to never go back
Why?

10 years in Germany, from Perugia, Italy. I´m not leaving Germany either....here I don´t need a car (I hate cars....German public transport might be the best in the world), extremely easy to get a well paid job, bureaucracy works pretty well, traffic is not that bad, I love snow, extremely international, open minded, very good worker rights....al things that I do not have back in Italy. Don´t get me wrong, I still ADORE Italy!!!
I met my Australian wife in Berlin. After five years of living there, we decided to leave and move to her home, Melbourne. Worst decision ever. I have been stuck here for 10 years now.
move back - leave those koala-bbq-ing coal miners

happy u like it here!♥️all the best for you both 🦋 love from bavaria
Thank you ❤️
If I scroll trough the comments, I always get the impression that most channels like yours are mostly watched by Germans like me, who want to get a "foreign" view (although you are not really foreign anymore) on their own country.
I very much appreciate that you do not annoy your viewers with ads or "sponsored content" like other ex-pats do. I unsubscribed from a few of them, because they became too commercialized.
Yes, a lot of my viewers are based in Germany. A mix of expats and Germans. Many youtubers (including myself) will do sponsored videos once in a while because it allows us to continue making videos. Making even 1 video can take up to 6-8 hours, so it’s very time consuming. For me personally, if I ever do a sponsored video it’s with brands that I personally use and support. Whatever I make from the videos, gets reinvested into the channel, so I can buy better equipment and cameras.
Thanks for your support! 😊
Ich hab gerade gelesen, das du hierbleiben möchtet. Da freue ich mich , das du diesen Entschluß gefasst hast Liebe Grüße aus Aschaffenburg
Thank you for your support over the last 3 years! I'm excited to keep making videos to help you on your own journey of moving abroad ☺ Please leave any requests for videos here ❤🇩🇪
You should watch some modesty-videos!
Things won't get better in Germany. I would think carefully before moving from the US.
What about going to the final stops of the S-Bahn lines and experience places like Strausberg, Erkner, Bernau or Birkenwerder? That might be interesting vids.
Hi Diana, can you make a video about the real estate market in Berlin, how to find a house what central website to use. Like in Canada we have realtor website in Berlin it's a shit show nobody wants to work with other real estate agents and every agent is selfish to make the sale and don't want to split commission. Talk about that in your next video. How disorganized the RE market is.
Please please make a video about finding jobs if one has educational background of business, management, marketing etc.
Wow, this resonates so much with our experience of moving to Germany from the US a year ago. Took the leap and moved so quickly even before we knew what to expect. Felt kinda lost at the beginning, but now we love this place.
Germany is a very beautiful and peaceful country
I'll have a chance to visit Germany this April. Hopefully my plan comes through so I can try and see if it might be right for me :)
I did 3 years of German as a second language at school... Ins kino gehen... This is all I remember. Oh and "einshuldingung"... Yep 3 years I and can only say that... We had the choice between Spanish and German and up to this day I regret my decision
**Video Request** =). I recall you mentioning that you first went over to Germany on a Canadian Youth Mobility Visa. Can you talk about what the process to switch to a regular work permit/visa was like? Did you have to leave the country and reapply, switch jobs, etc etc. Thanks!
Thank you for helping me establish in Berlin. I just moved 3-4 weeks ago and your videos made my transition quite easier for me. I’m doing a bootcamp for UX design (I have no experience in design) but I heard it’s so hard to find a job in Berlin, specially for none EU people (I’m from NY). I’m on a tourist visa and after the bootcamp I’m applying for a job seeker visa but not sure if I’ll get it.
Any tips? Can I work in a start up in any department or do I only need to apply for UX design jobs?
Any tips or insights are much appreciated Diana :)
Thanks
Do you have a university degree? It's much easier when you do. I didn't so i had to apply for a normal work visa which is much harder.
My friend got a job seeker visa though. Wasn't that hard. Also, i heard that Germany relaxed the rules for visas so it should be a bit easier now.
I'm also pretty sure there are a lot of UX design jobs in Berlin.
Nick Kupriyanov thanks for your feedback. Yes I have a Bachelors in Psychology from University at Buffalo (State University of NY).
But I don’t have any design degree. My only education in design is the current bootcamp I’m doing now. I’m just wondering if I can get a job that is not design bc many design jobs require a lot of experience and prefer people that speak German from what I’ve been told.
@@dustinperez8248 yeah it might be a problem. They will probably not accept your degree for a design job. So a blue card might not be an option for you, unfortunately.
You can definitely get any other job but it might be complicated. Even with a job seeker visa they will ask for your qualifications and your resume.
Regarding German it depends. In design mostly likely you will work for some startup or an IT company and 90% of them are English speaking.

Dustin Perez Diana has an ebook available on her website that explains the things you need to know to get different visas. Maybe it can help you.
Get a job at a start up. They are usually pretty open towards non German. Secondly since they are a startup they tend to give people more of a chance. Especially the ones who have just started with their profession.
I really enjoyed the start of your video, saying when you got here! LOL! Imagine being 13 years old and living in Florida for the past 12 years. Now, landing in Luxembourg on the 30th of November 1974! I wanted to do an about-face and get right back on that plane! IT WAS SO COLD!!! LOL!!! I don´t know, if you get around Germany or Europe a lot. I haveßnt been with you for very long. But, I would recommend you to travel around the country and the continent, if you get the chance! There are so many beautiful places to see. So much cultural input! I don´t know where to start! Munich! Füssen! Many cities along the Rhein! I could go on and on! But, you have to see it for yourself! Have fun! Enjoy yourself! And good luck for your future in your job and relationship! See you soon!
Hi Ms. beautiful Diana, I just recently moved here in Germany and I wanted to live here forever too 😁
Like we say sometimes: "how you´re calling into the wood it will be echoed", think you know what I mean (although my poor english). Such a sympatic person like you will earn sympathy too. So, very warm WELLCOME, stay as long as you like
Mich würde interessieren ob du nun fliesend Deutsch sprichst , nach drei Jahren in Deutschland ?
Keine Chance, diese Frage ignoriert sie immer geflissentlich, ist mein Eindruck.
Ich glaube auch nicht, daß sie wirklich Deutschsprechen kann. Sie hat es in ihrer Komfortzone nicht nötig, es richtig zu lernen.
und wieso muss sie fließend deutsch sprechen nach drei jahren? wisst ihr wie schwer es ist deutsch zu lernen? ich konnte erst nach 10 jahren fließend englisch sprechen also hört auf andere leute unter druck zu setzen, die ihr nicht kennt. nur weil sie nie vor der kamera deutsch spricht, heißt das nicht, dass sie nicht lernt oder übt oder versucht so viel wie möglich zu lernen. anzunehmen, dass sie faul ist, ist einfach und ziemlich ignorant. jeder mensch lernt sprachen unterschiedlich schnell und ich muss mich wirklich für die deutschen hier schämen, die nur rummeckern können.
Shoko
Es war keine Kritik, sonder nur eine Vermutung. Kener hat sie angegriffen! Es war nur die Feststellung, daß man es heute in einer Stadt wie Berlin nicht mehr nötig hat, außer Englisch eine andere Sprache zu beherrschen.
Es zeigt doch nur, wie sehr Englisch inzwischen eine Weltsprache ist. Und wie gut die meisten, jüngeren Deutschen wirklich Englisch können.
@@tasminoben686 Da darf mam sich wirklich nicht wundern, wenn deutsche als "rude" empfunden werden.
@@jomei36 Seh ich auch so. Es gibt wirklich Leute, die sich einbilden, anderen Menschen alles Mögliche vor den Kopf knallen und es dann als deutsche Offenheit verkaufen zu können. Offenheit kann auch ohne Taktlosigkeit funktionieren.
I'm going to move to Berlin Germany for college and want to stay there after! Anything I should keep in mind starting a few years before going?
Beary-Honey
Oh wow, hey! We have the same goal! I’m saving up money, but that’s because my family isn’t the richest and it would be hard to send me there without the money I’m saving up. Also, yes, learn German. Very important.
Dear beary-honey there are only three rules you have to keep in mind . number one : be on time, number two: be on time, number three: be on time comma always be on time
Your thoughts and experiences of what to leave behind and what to ship here from Canada. Been here since October 1st and applying for residency title to stay. Originally from St. Catharines, Ontario ,🇨🇦🇩🇪😀
glad, that it worked out so well for you. but the merits for that are yours. Berlin is a wonderful city, lived there for twenty years. greetings from lower saxony.
Moved to Germany from Scotland for a year's work .That was 9 years ago. ARGH... Let me go! no no no, we will not let you go!
Without Worries I was born in Germany but lived in Scotland for 6. Recently moved back. Everything is objectively better but I am so so so homesick for Scotland..
@@annat6504 Ouch aye, I understand. I make a return trip to Scotland at least 2 times a year to catch up on the banter. The Müncheners just don't get it ;)
Berlin is also a special place for Germans as well. Berlin has a hugde history … good and bad once. And this makes it so unique.
So ... your reason to move was your Job. Did you have a Job in Toronto and then you signed in for your Company to work in Germany or have you been looking for a differend Job for a differend Company in a differend Country with no clue of what to expect? And by the way … what kind of Job is it?
How do you make God laugh? Tell him about your plans!
Go with the flow!
Agreed 😊😊
Dunno which other cities you have been to but Bremen, Leipzig, Frankfurt, Colonge and Hamburg are all kinda smaller versions of Berlin. Overall all those cities are really open minded, have a huge variety in culture, a lot of arts and a lovely architecture
You love Berlin, or you hate it.
There is nothing between that. ;)
So true. A lot of my friends hate it, but I fell in love on the first visit and then moved here a year later.
True, but I somehow manage to do both.
@@dankwartdenkhardt5714 oh yeah good old love/hate. I'd say it's true for me as well.
But the thing is that most people are experiencing love, hate or both for Berlin. Very few people are indifferent towards it. Definitely a polarizing city.
Love the city-Hate the government
Well.. I think Berlin is okay.
There's never just back and white in the world. :D
6:51: And just think that 30 years ago, exactly at that place, there was nothing except some then defunct border facilities that were supposed to prevent people from swimming from east to west.
I love your "go with the flow" philosophy on life. It's my own as well, and the "flow" carried me to my dreams. That wouldn't have happened if I'd stubbornly stuck to a "plan". :)
Great video Diana!
Always welcome !!!
You are doing a great job and helping a lot! Watching it after a year You filmed it. Actually right now I'm watching all Your videos:)) After one month we will move to Berlin as well, so hopefully our experience will be this fun :D
Amazing!! Thank you for watching. I hope you enjoy your time in Berlin ❤️❤️
@@DianaVerry thank You ♥️
I came from Brazil 6 years ago. Challenging? Hell yeah. Now I know that I won't ever leave this amazing city
Amazing! Thanks for sharing 😊
you may be introverted, but you are very very openminded
One hast nothing to do with the other...
My Idea for your Channel would be to visit 1 or 2 Football Matches of Hertha and Union Berlin. Both are totally different and for you it would be something totally new and different... So you can show the people how a Sports event goes in Berlin!. The Olympic Stadium has a big history also the the Football Stadium from Union Berlin... Very interesting for a lot of people. Greetings from Düsseldorf
Hallo Diani, ich hoffedu hast jemand, der dies übersetzen kann. Du verwechselst die ganze Zeit Berlin mit dem Rest von Deutschland. Schon in einer kleineren Stadt wie beispielsweise Bad Homburg, Oldenburg, Passau oder Wittenberg hast du nicht die kulturelle, internationale und auch jobmäßige Umgebung wie in Berlin.Ob es dir da gefallen würde finde ich fraglich.Und noch weiter draussen auf dem Land ist die umgebung eine völlig andere.
I have Ramstein tickets for 2020. That & my E82 are really the only things I look forward to.
Can you make a video about your visa application process? Did you apply for the youth mobility program while in Canada or when you got to Germany?
There are other places in germany alike and No.1 place in Germany is Munich.
Hey Diana. It's a pleasure to watch your videos. I'm from Colombia and I've been thinking about to immigrate and work as a food engineer or something related to this field abroad. I've considered countries like Canada and USA but because of your experience I think Germany could be a great place as well. Do you have any recommendation or advice?. Greetings from Medellin and I really love your hair 😊.
@Peter S I know to immigrate isn't easy and implies lots of things and challenges. Even though, I want to do it. By the way, my first language is Spanish and I'm working on my English 💪
@Peter S Ireland seems as a great place with a good air, lots of rivers and nature but I don't know much about how it is to work or get offer jobs...
I love living in Germany
Ich auch! 😊❤️
Hi how to apply for Germany ,I'm working here in Qatar right now,you can help me?😍
Hi Diana! Normaly I enjoy reading the comments here. A lot of nice people. But this time some "ugly" germans feel the need to hate on Berlin or our Country. I have lived in 3 different countries and now I know how good our life is here. Wish you the best✌
I've you ever gonna visit Bavaria swing by a city called wuerzburg. you won't regret. best time is during wine festival season ;) i can show you some cool places in wuerzburg and I'd be happy to do so. much love frm Bavaria 🙋🏻♂️
I highly recomment you, to do a trip for 1 Week to the City "Friedrichshafen" it is close to the "Bodensee" a big Lake .
It is at the very South of Germany and is the birth place of Germanys ..Zeppelin industry (Around the year 1900).
Today there are alot of Cafe´s around the Lake ...and there is of course a Zeppelin museum etc.
Check it out and keep a week free in this summer ! (just to lift your Berlin-Glasses a bit ;) )
I like your videos, and I hope that you will have a good time in Germany till forever :)
Thank you ❤️❤️
Diana what kind of work are you doing in Berlin, when I was there I found that most companies hired interns for low wages and kept repeating this intern hiring spree and never was there full-time jobs available for educated and qualified full time job seekers. I don't understand how 1 can survive on 800 euro per month. Seems like too low of a wage maybe ok for a student who is learning. I worked in IT and was also moved around from company to company very unstable job market because lots of Eastern European immigrants are taking jobs for low wages. For example Bulgarians, Bosnia, Serbia, they will work for 800 per month because it is more than a police officer makes in their country. For Americans/Canadians it's not worth it.
I am also from Toronto was there from 2013 to 2016 and had enough of the unstable jobs and resume discrimination or language barrier issues. IT is a universal skill that has no language barrier and Google translate works in every country but Germans love chit chat at work and prefer their own over foreigners.
I dont like a lot of things about Germany, same in the states. The biggest influence in your mood & perspective is from your partner & job. I'm single so it sucks more!! Just cold rainy or miserable in Germany at the moment & I dont talk to anyone outside of work & I actually speak German lol. Ive lived in half dozen US states but was born in Bavaria (the best part of Germany) but I dont really feel home sick because ive lived everywhere.
I dont like germany. germans are cold. I hope you come to somewhere that suits you :)
@@Willxdiana Hell yeah!
Planning to move there next summer :D
Awesome! Good luck with the move 😊
Hi Diana, i'm from Montreal, lived in London UK for 9 years, i lost my humanity..... i should of moved to Berlin instead. You think now at 43 it's too late to move to Germany?
You are so lucky. I wish I could move to Germany.. Just need the right to work and I am there!
lucky to live in germany?
Define the luck

Hi in Deutschland gibt es einen Choke: "Wie bringt man Gott zum lachen?: Erzähl ihm von deinen Plänen!"
thats only the beginning what we once saw as a labour migration from eastern europe to western europe will now become colonies/brexit manics to central europe/eastern europe
Where are you leaving
My dear friend
You did not mention language in this video. How long did it take you to become fluent in German?
lol thats what I wanna know as well. I want to learn German and be fluent. nyc isn't helping me learn it
@Frischeparadies 3 years in germany though?
@Frischeparadies well berlin is a international city, its not Germany lol. she is Canadian I think. Im 31 and Im learning German self taught in the states. I go to Rostock and use German with the Omas.
@Frischeparadies I find French and spanish much easier. German vocabulary is half of English and grammar is bad...
@Frischeparadies well its German cases like latin cases. You need to live there to learn it. Its not that hard for me, I figured it out, what possession is, who it is directed to. Grammar English is more French
I'm not leaving Colombia too cause I like it.
Mi tierra ❤️
yea the flow is important ,,not the plan :)
Is Berlin time east or west Germany time? Kris
Thank you so much for making these videos. I would love to go to live in Germany. I am only intrested in big cities. Do you think that Berlin still has consequences of cold war in financial way?
Jule 1998 welcome to Munich
Berlin is a great place for expats and has provided me with a lot of great opportunities 😊
@@DianaVerry Thank you so much for the response. I really love big cities and I hope to get to live in Berlin. It seems like such a beautiful and clean city with beautiful architecture and parks. It has more than 3 million inhabitants and I really love the idea of living in such a great city. I am from Bosnia and Herzegovina. I hope I meet you if I hopefully go to Berlin. Just keep making these videos, they mean so much to me.💗💗💗💗
Please I am so excited to live in Germany and I have Legal passport may I get visa for Germany
Hey there im currently trying to figure a way to find work and move to Germany but keep hitting road blocks.. any advice?
Hey Jared, what sort of road blocks?
Hallo Diana. So 3 Jahre. Gratuliere. Wie Ihre Deutsch? bitte schreiben sie einbischen. Danke
Ich glaub ich hab dich vor nicht langer Zeit mal in der S-Bahn gesehen richtung Pankow 😅
Are there Salsa congresses there?
Hi Diana
your videos are wonderful because you are wonderful. You've got that lovely, adorable personality and mixed with the spirit of Berlin it's absolutely fabulous. You are very honest in your videos and believe in what you are talking about.
Berlin needs more people like you and Josh that create that special feeling of Berlin what made that city what it is today. Berlin was always a city for expats.
I am a young man who is about to start college this year. As a person with a growing, yet short, portfolio but I am planning on moving to Germany hopefully within the next 5 to 8 years. It seems impossible to move to Germany so if someone can direct me on the options I have to make it there I would really appreciate it. Danke!
It would help to know where you come from, why you believe it is impossible to move there earlier, what your college studies are about, what your career aim is, what your skills are (language skills too, it depends much on the business whether you need to be fluent in German or even get along with English, at least in the beginning).
"Dickes B, oben an der Spree. Im Sommer tust du gut und im Winter tut's weh. Mama Berlin mag Stein und Benzin. Wir lieben deinen Duft, wenn wir um die Häuser ziehn..." (Seeed)
Now it will be four years!
Country is beautiful, but the weather, high taxes, impossible to start a viable company, real estate prices, too much bureaucracy and stupid ruled made me leave after 7 years.
More easy way is to get a German lady, great lady keep it up. Am already here
you feel honest in that you tell ...great …..
Well, Berlin is definetly not the best choise to live and experience germany.
But it is definetly better, than going to the big disneyland bavaria or generally the south of germany. Espacally if you amplify a image of germany for the rest of the world, witch is in truth just that Freizeitpark in the south..
I love germany because of health care and culture and the system with their prisons
Did you say “world wind?”
Im happy you enjoy life over here :) ..I like the idea of becoming an expat myself someday, but till now everytime i find an adorable destination and research about life there i stumble upon at least one major downside, may it be the public transportation, healthcare, jobwise, or simply the fact that im not allowed to live there if I dont win the lottery ;( ...but yeah, guess germany has spoilt me in too many ways and now im doomed to die here. (..or move to scandinavia and get spoilt even more x) ) Keep up the great Vids! :)
berlin is not the cheapest city to stay at so it will not be easy
but you will manage it somehow
Edit: Nice to have someone stay in the eastern part of germany even if berlin is half west.
Berlin is quite cheap for a capital of a large western nation...
You know the term “expat” is kinda discriminatory, white people are always expats(even if they intend to stay there forever) and other races are automatically immigrants(even if they are there for a month or two).
I understand you wouldn’t want to use the immigrant for yourself so a more appropriate word would be a foreigner imo(alternatively you can try not to use the word expat in everyone of your video).
WTF?!
what? "expat" is a normal word. So is "immigrant". They just mean different things.
*SJW Idiot.*
@@nicktankard1244 where is the difference?
@@giselap5032 well the lines are pretty blurry here but generally, there is some consensus. An "expat" is someone who lives in a foreign country temporarily without an intent to stay forever and also moves for a job usually. An "immigrant" is someone who moves to another country with the intent to stay longterm. You could be an "expat" but then decide to stay and turn into an "immigrant". There is also a consideration of citizenship. I would say once you obtain citizenship you are no longer an expat but an immigrant. But here in the EU this line is blurred as well because you can live in a country for ages with your EU passport.
