The U.S. is better than Germany.
I think with your attitude on life in general you will blend in quickly. Welcome to Germany, welcome to Franconia! Best wishes from Fürth!
Thank you! Now if they could only upload the language into my brain like the Matrix I would be grateful. Learning another language isn't easy!
@@SethinBerlin step by step on learning german ....
@@joergfro7149 that would be tough because there isn’t one way to do it. You know what I mean? What works for me might not work for someone else
@@joergfro7149 I could do a video on different options to learn German. Like different classes and programs
@@SethinBerlin practice practice practice. i dont consider myself good with languages... but i speak 4. find people you are comfortable speaking german to. ask them to correct you. and just keep using the language. when i moved to the netherlands, i was very shy about speaking dutch. one day i realized... fuck it, even if someone makes fun of me (never happened) i can just ask them how their X-th language is
The American expat taxation system will remind you year by year how difficult it is to escape uncle Sam.
Welcome back to Germany! Glad to have people like you around :)
Thank you so much! I am grateful to be here! ❤️❤️❤️
A warm welcome. So cool that you are with us in Germany 👍🙂🙋♂️ Best wishes from Frankfurt to Bamberg.
Thank you! 😃
Wise choice and valid reasons.
Welcome here! I'm sure you'll like it and make it here.
Thanks! 😃
Welcome mate, hope you will get along and find happiness in your new home! I do have a colleague who did also come from the US, from Silicon Valley, more than 10 years ago and he pointed out many of the same reasons. He is settled here now and feels that he is in the right place now. Greetings from south west of Germany! - Christian
BM1DAS601 thank you Christian! That means a lot to me
Welcome to Germany! I hope you find your peace here. I too do not think, I could ever live in the US again.
Go Girl Thank you!
First things first: Welcome to Germany, hope you'll find it the right place to be.
Second, make sure you take your time to travel Germany, While Germany is very small compared to the US, it is astonishingly diverse - you'll find a lot of regional differences. Consider those, before setteling.
Third, a carrer-tip: Consider hiring with a business consultants company's international law department. While the job might not be, what you are looking for, it is usually high-paid if you bring in proper expertise - like your law-school degree+practice in US law. Spend a few years in such a company, build a contacts base and after that, consider turning yourself into a freelance-consultant for US law: Good opportunity to make money, while retaining the freedom to schedule work more to your liking. All of the above should be easy for you. In the aforementioned companies, it is not uncommon to use englisch as the daily language, so you should get along even with limited German language capabilities.
VirtualInfinity not bad advice! As I write this I’m exploring Hamburg. Videos to come!
@@SethinBerlin Welcome to Hamburg. The best city in Germany :p (people from Berlin, Munich or Cologne might disagree) Have as much fun as it is possible in these days ;)

And I am terrified that you could be right about your fears about the US election. Welcome to Germany. Refugees welcome! Even from the US. I would never had expected that.
I may have to apply for refugee status! I have been pretty outspoken about the current regime...
I m very scared , too. Trump will do everything not to go to jail. Only thing that could stop his suporters may be the further rise of covid until January.

Really happy for you brother and thank you for your service sir. I too was stationed in DE from 2000-02 and fell in love with its people, culture, extensive history, architecture and food. Hope to be able to visit soon with meinem kinder 💕 🇩🇪. Enjoy it bud, you’ve earned it.
Thank you! ❤
As a native Babyboomer German you got me with one sentence: Trump isn't the disease he is a symptom. So one question is still on my mind what is the diseas?
Ignorance, racism, xenophobia, nationalism disguised as patriotism
@@SethinBerlin Okay, that means I had hung out with the wrong US Americans because the once I had met were neither ignorant nor racist or xenophobic, (many of them were or are very patriotic but in a healthy way, they are proud of American values like the engraved Words at the Lady Liberty statue). But I have to admit that the far majority of US Americans that I met in my life were god-educated business folks that had traveled the world and so did had a much wider perspective than the average US citizen. And even you did not sound to me as you are an ignorant, racist who is xenophobic. However, welcome to Europe and I wish you all the best.
@@lotharschepers2240 it isn’t everyone. And it isn’t all of Trump supporters, but it is a lot of them. And if they aren’t, then they condone it which is just as bad to me.

Thanks for letting us know the reason you left. I can see you being a tour guide at some stage. If l had my life over again l would probably be living in Berlin. In 1992 l became diabetic and our NHS basically kept me here.
Great vid. I moved over here three years ago, right after I retired from the Army. Like you I was stationed here twice and you nailed it when you said you enjoyed "the pace of life". I have very little stress here. You lost me when you said your reasons were political but overall my reasons are the same. I'm in Schweinfurt right down the road and I'm planning on applying to either the University of Bamberg or Würzburg when I finish my Psych degree through Maryland.
Nice! Politics isn’t my only reason but it is a reason. I graduated from Maryland too
@Weltbürger Wanderlust I just wanted to say I enjoy your channel and find you very intellectual 🙏🏾 I’m currently in the U.S Army and was stationed in Germany and plan to move back myself after my contract, if you ever had the chance to make a video about ways of how one could move to another country that would be much appreciated!
Thanks for watching Pharaoh! When you say "how one could move to another country", do you mean the process of actually moving, or reasons to move such as school or jobs?
@@SethinBerlin Natürlich! but yes I mean how one could move to another country and maybe you could explain how you did it yourself or in your opinion what would be the best visa to use and such (: Vielen Dank!
I will add those ideas to my list! Thanks! In the meantime, I've made a few videos about attending university here that I will link to this reply since that is how I got over here myself.

A very pleasant low key video that makes me want to hear more of your adventure. Perhaps the one good thing that will come out of the last four years in American is that it has been like a pressure tests with leaks and breakdowns all over the place exposing fundamental structural weaknesses in abundance. Our gain, on this side of the pond, is that we get intelligent and thoughtful ex - pats such as you here to live with us and enrich our community
That means a lot. Thank you!
Liked it bro. And a warm welcome to Germany
Thank you! ❤️❤️
Nice you did it, have noticed your attempd in your older videos. Welcome to germany, hopefully you find what you are searching for or find out what you need. Geertings
Thank you so much!
I know this video has been up for a few week but I just found it and wanted to say: Welcome to Germany! I us to live in the US and had a wonderful experience. I hope its going to be the same for you here. Having said that, I would now not go back to the US and am scared shirtless about the elections!
Thank you for your comment. It’s forking scary!

You’re on an American made website (RUclips), you use American made social media, American made internet and you’re probably using an American made phone (Apple) unless you’re using a laptop or personal computer which was also American made.
Your country listens to American music, follows American trends, culture and celebrities, copies how Americans dress and American slang, American abbreviations like “Lol” “Lmao” “omw” and you wear American made clothes, always copying American style The highlight of non American youths (probably whole life) is when Americans artists, American concerts and festivals come to perform in other countries. I know you hate to admit it but the world knows how much America has carried humanity.
IN ONLY 244 YEARS AMERICANS HAVE ACCOMPLISHED.
1.) became our planets world power.
2.) landed on the moon and lead humanity in space travel science and technological advances.
3.) Americans invented.

• Nobel Prizes by Country 2023
First issued in 1901, the Nobel Prize is one of the highest honors a person can receive in their lifetime. The Nobel Prize was founded by Swedish engineer, inventor, and chemist Alfred Nobel, whose will established the Nobel Foundation and directed that the prizes be awarded annually "to those who, during the preceding year, have conferred the greatest benefit to humankind." Nobel further instructed that "no consideration be given to nationality, but that the prize be awarded to the worthiest person, whether or not they are Scandinavian."
Nobel Prizes are awarded in five areas: peace, literature, physics, chemistry, and physiology or medicine. In 1969, an additional prize, titled the "Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel" (SRPESMAN), was established by Sweden's central bank and has been incorporated into the Nobels as well.
Here are the 10 countries with the most Nobel Prize winners:
1. United States - 400
2. United Kingdom - 137
3. Germany - 111
4. France - 71
5. Russia - 32
6. Sweden - 32
7. Japan - 29
8. Canada - 28
9. Switzerland - 27
10. Netherlands - 22

• We built America from the ground up and accomplished all of this in only 244 years.
We took the world out of the dark ages and we are literally the reason humanity is so modern. Every other country in the world hasn’t accomplished shit there’s no comparison when it comes to America and the world knows that, that’s why they wish they could live with us.
I don’t know why European people feel the need to impress us Americans or try and prove themselves to us or try so hard to make themselves noticed by us Americans or try to make themselves feel better by trying to downplay humanities greatest nation… Americans are obviously elite in everything that we do. You guys don’t realize how embarrassing you are to Americans. Americans laugh when little European people try and call americans stupid knowing americans literally are the reason why the world has advanced. Now imagine life before America existed?
You’re welcome.
Americans carry humanity so how you gonna hate from outside of the club? YOU CANT EVEN GET IN 😂 🇺🇸
I’m just glad my ancestors moved to “the new world” and I’m not still stuck in Europe because I can’t blame you guys. I’d be mad and probably hate on Americans too knowing I got left behind and could’ve been born in America instead. 😭😂
I know you hate to hear it but we all know Europe youth secretly wishes they lived in America so they could go to Travis Scott shows and experience “the American dream…” like the rest of the world does.
So yeah Europeans, you definitely do copy us lol, like the rest of the world does, it’s funny you all “hate” Americans until you meet one then you’re all asking us all about America and what it’s like to live here complimenting us non stop lol.
(by the way that was so wild that some of you say Americans copy the Europe? copy WHAT exactly? Gross haha gross haha never! 🤮 You guys are like a lame weird boring wannabe version of us. Americans been trendsetters but you already knew that lol.
• We also think of those corny ass wannabe gangsters you guys have in the Europe who TRY to copy American rap and throw up American gang signs. 😂
Like boy sit yo crumpet eating, king and queen having, European accent having ass down you ain’t no blood 🩸there’s nothing funnier than seeing videos of European wannabes with European accents throwing up American gang signs trying to act like he’s from LA and even wearing Lakers jerseys lol see?

People in Norway kill each other with bow and arrows, four women and a man were killed and two others wounded when a man used a bow and arrow to attack them in Norway. One week ago, powerful explosions ruptured a pair of underwater natural gas pipelines-Nord Stream 1 and 2-that run between Russia and Germany. London is 'acid attack hotspot of western world' with victims as young as 10.
Police found and detonated two bombs, one of which contained up to one and a half pounds of Semtex explosive, and several hoax devices. IRA bomb threats on 21 April snarled British transportation, with police temporarily closing 17 rail and subway stations: London's Gatwick, Heathrow, Luton, and Stanstead airports; Trafalgar Square; and the eastern dock of the Port of Dover. LONDON - British lawmaker David Amess was stabbed to death Friday while holding a regular meeting with constituents, police said, in a killing that has shaken the nation and been declared a terrorist incident. Two primary school girls were stabbed and seriously injured in Berlin's Neukölln neighborhood on Wednesday by a 39-year-old male suspect who was arrested at the scene of the attack. The girls, aged 7 and 8, were both hospitalized, a police spokeswoman said.
In 2015, a 21-year-old wearing a Darth Vader-like mask marched into a school in Trollhättan in west Sweden and killed a pupil and a teacher with a sword in a racially motivated attack that made global headlines. And over the past 15 months there have been three school attacks, in addition to Monday's stabbings. Student arrested after deadly knife attack at Swedish high school. Two women died after being stabbed at a high school in southern Sweden on Monday, police said, adding that an 18-year-old student had been arrested. 🤣😂🤣
Thank you for sharing your journey, your vulnerability is very much appreciated. I can only imagine the level of anxiety you must have been dealing with during the divorce and relocation to Germany. The idea of going to school in Germany is brilliant and I considered the same in Spain. I am staying in Germany for a few months now and having lived here before I appreciate how functional things are. Healthcare is much more affordable in Europe overall as you mentioned and something that's high on my list in the next chapter of my life.

"we ended up getting married", I like the tone of your voice when you said it. No worries, my marriage lasted 11 years, the last 3 of which were a waste of time. Fortunately, no children, so divorce was easy, or could have been, if we had agreed on "Gütertrennung", that means, who has bought a thing, it belongs to him/her. We didn't do that, so under German law, you automatically have a "Gütergemeinschaft", which means, all items bought belong to both, no matter who paid for it. I was on the brink of cutting our very expensive living room table in half with a Handkreissäge, and tell my former wife, "here's your half". Of course, I didn't do that. Instead, I imagined how her new man would disassemble that whole thing and reassemble it in their new location. I don't know how they did it, but when I came back to my home, the table was gone.
We didn’t fight over anything. In fact, when I decided to move here she got first choice of my stuff and took quite a bit. I’m not the least bit angry or bitter with her. I hope she’s happy.
An emotional statement. You doing right - so welcome to Germany and all the best
Thank you so much!
I'm with you 100% on your reasonings. Will be watching more of your vlogs. Hope you cover more in depth the process for moving over, how you chose where you've settled. My husband and I visited in 2012 for 2 weeks and LOVED it! It is my dream for us to end up living there someday.
You won't regret doing it if you can! I plan on making more videos on the process of moving here for sure.

I’m the same I still live in America and im 14 and since both my parents are from Germany (so i have a citizenship) and my entire family lives there I’ve been there at least 12 times, When i’m 18 im thinking of moving to Germany and leaving the USA since Germany is much more safe than the USA its also much nicer and I love the food there and it always feels so much better staying there than the USA also the drivers are so much better than the USA.
Take German in high school. If you become proficient you can attend college in Germany or maybe to an Ausbildung. Good luck!
@@SethinBerlin sad thing is my highschool doesn't offer German so I normally use duolingo. When I go to uni there (if I do) im gonna take german classes over the summer
@@LoosieG0osie check out babel, it’s better than duolingo
@@SethinBerlin will do thanks!
Cheer up! Hope you have a good start.
I'm always cheerful!
I wish you lots of success in your New Life. I d also love to do my Master's in International Relations there. Lets see
Thank you! You can do it!
Honestly, not only I, but also an awful lot of my friends are horriffied
As I see Biden's lead grow in the polls, I'm a little more confident, but people need to get out and vote! The larger the amount he wins by, the harder it will be for them to screw with the results
Im from the UK dont mind me asking how are you affording to stay in Germany to study...i.e living expenses what not if you are not presumably not working? Love your channel found it tonight.
Good question. I had money saved up, and i still do a little bit of part time work online. In order to get a student visa you have to show that you can support yourself. One ways to do so is with a blocked account. I had to deposit a certain amount of money into this account, and a set amount is disbursed per month.
@@SethinBerlin thanks for reply. How much money did you have to put into an account for how long? Also what course did you take? Do you also work in germany as well as online? Thanks in advancd
Welcome to Germany... And now theres a Song coming to my mind thats called "Willkommen in Deutschland" from "Die toten Hosen". Maybe you want to react? 👍

Do you know the German language to study in Germany? Just curious how it works for English-speaking people.
Fortunately my program is in English. I would say I may be A1 but barely.
Look here: www2.daad.de/deutschland/studienangebote/international-programmes/en/
Maybe consider studying for Lehramt, too. Would make it considerably easier to find a teaching job if you ever want to - and you could have an easy second subject with English.
Interesting. I may have to look into that. Is the Lehramt a degree program or can you get a teaching certificate like in the US?
Did you learn German? I was in Berlin for 4 years. I took u of Maryland German 001 and 002. Got out with the Locals and Beat them in their Game of Fussball ! also Pool . I loved Berlin. I would retire there but Schengen rules of 90 days in a 180 day period for American and others makes that idea very restrictive. I am retire Navy and on Ss. The years in Berlin was U S Air Force at Templehof. Retired in 1988 from the Navy...... My German is Not so good but I still study it now and then . Best wishes on your stay there!
I also have learned a few words in Russian
I'm working on it. I am in a1.2 now so just beginning.

Germany is a country which truly tries to comfort every inhabitant - wheather it depends on healthcare, studies, pension or protecting your life with their gun laws.
Amen
I have not resonated with a YT video before. I lived in Germany over a year ago. My plan is to move back for my post-grad. I love the culture. Becoming fluent in German has always been my life goal. Thank you for this video. I hate the institutionalized system of the United States that has not changed in slavery. The ignorance from Americans who allow bigotry.
Amen. I agree 100 percent. If you come to live here you won't regret it...except maybe in the winter 😀

So, can someone just "retire" and move to Germany? I am a Law Enforcement officer in the United States. I am planning to retire in a couple years. My wife and I wanted to move to Germany as we have heard great things about the quality of life in Germany. I will have a very good pension, therefor have no intentions on working. What kind of Visa would I qualify for, if any?

Oh Seth. America gave mě early retirement during resession. 2012. All they do to mě is lock mě in psych awards and make mě homeless on the street. Every last state i move to. Been TRYING so hard to find work but i keep getting falsely arrested and put in jail. Then locked in psych wards. My life is a complete Hell on this earth. Plenty of work for mě now but USA wont leave mě the fuck alone! The govt broke my nose past May and damaged my knee. Forced meds. Im 60 now with tons of skills but i am denied the use of my own cell phone to apply for jobs. The military continues to entrap mě denying mě my 8th ammendment rights! Im skilled in law. Mfg. Operations. Distribution. Purchasing. No hope for my life as i surfer with 1447.00 per month and denied all health care since 1996.
Leberkäse and coffee for breakfast? Is that even legal?
I dunno. But like a lot of illegal things, it sure is good! 😂
What about citizenship? Germany does not offer dual. All of these concepts and opinions are mine as well. I visit Germany every year. Missing it during covid times! Prost!
German law generally discourages dual citizenship, but it does not always require that applicants renounce their citizenship before becoming German. Citizens of other EU member states have the right to dual citizenship inside the bloc. Of those 112,211 naturalized German citizens in 2017, almost 39,000 came from EU member states and 99 percent kept their original nationality.

I meant to say I live in Germany now too. I just can't do the language so we're hoping to move to the U.S. or another English speaking country when my husband retires.
Just learn the language. A few months of hard work and you are part of this community
@@RotesKleid411 I've been trying but language is just not for me. I can't grasp it or understand when spoken to.
Languages aren't easy to learn. I definitely understand that!
@@denisehaschkabaer8974 Learnig a language comes in many stages. What you describe is the first stage. People who learn another language stick it out. It will not be like that forever. Learning any language gives you a concept of languages in general and your own language in particular.
@@connectingthedots100 it's not for me. I moved here for love and even though I like Germany, I can't seem to learn it for many reasons. For some, they can learn different languages and for others, it's a constant struggle. Obviously, I don't really want to learn it. I know enough for simple communication. I'll feel much better moving to an English speaking country or area upon my husband's retirement. I'll be able to understand everything and meet new friends, something I miss and look forward to.

@@shieldgenerator7 • Corruption in Europe’s health services is surprisingly common
It happens most in the east but is rising in the west
European health care is in a sickly state. In Britain more than 6.5m people are on waiting lists for treatment, up by more than 50% since 2019. Patients in Spain wait an average of 123 days for an operation, the most in 18 years. The pandemic bears most of the blame. Disruptions to essential treatments created backlogs and strained services. But even before covid-19, health care in Europe was in trouble. Waiting lists had been creeping higher across much of the continent. It should perhaps be no surprise that a study published on September 6th by researchers at Imperial College London finds that patients are being asked to grease their practitioners’ palms to secure treatment (see chart).

People have died because of how long the wait times are.
@@shieldgenerator7 • “Free” healthcare isn't actually free. Healthcare that is provided by government agencies is usually funded by citizens in one way or another. The country's healthcare budget may come directly out of their taxes, or it may be funded through payroll taxes which affect a citizen's take-home pay.

I agree regarding Trump. The US is sadly regressing, and I have no intention of returning. Good luck with your studies.
Thank you so much! Moving here was the best decision I could have made

@picklerick7207 , it is all a matter of perspective. My husband's salary is better here in Germany. Even as a teacher, I would make more money here in Germany. Access to health care is better as well in terms of availability and costs. It can be more difficult for immigrants to find work here, but the same applies to the US.
Welcome 😀
Thank you!
Still, it is sad that you have to leave your home country because politics fuckes up your coutry. What kind of "freedom" is it, when people tell you to leave your own home if you aren't supporting their fascism?! I am very sorry to hear this as I truly believe that most Americans are as fine people as there are anywhere else in the world.
Therefor, welcome to Germany. Don't forget to visit Saarbrücken, the absolutely best place in Germany. Everybody is friendly, nobody gives a damn about were one comes from. AND, food is great :)
I was wondering where I did see that streets before. I have a good friend living in Bamberg or rather lose to it so I was there once or twice.
But I would not call that bavaria the upper part of bavaria actually is frankonia or "Franken"

you chose wisely
Thank you! I think I did too
I was also mortified by the tRump disease and all it's ramifications, but it has taken me until now Oct 2021 to get free. I'm now on the brink of going to one of the EU counties. I'm glad I ran into your video. We think alike. Fortunate for me, I just retired, sold my home and all earthly possessions and can afford to choose where to live. I'm just helping sort out some issues with my mother and brother (who will now be in nursing homes for the rest of his life), and mid Nov I'll fly out from Houston. I have sufficient passive income to support me, but I will need to be frugal to make it last. I'll be watching more of your videos. Keep up the good work.
If you are looking for a great country where its easy to be frugal. Give some thought to Bulgaria.
I moved here from the UK 12 years ago. It allowed me to change my career and become a writer as the cost of living is low enough for my tiny passive income. It's very beautiful, great sense of community. I am very deeply happy here. I live on about $600 to $1000 a month. I've actually been able to choose to work part-time and have more free time as I don't NEED to earn more than this to live a comfortable life.

@@picklerick7207 US salaries are higher because the cost of living is much higher in the states. Where I live in the US compared to the city my family in Germany lives, the groceries alone are nearly 30% cheaper there. Depending on your income, the tax difference isn’t much. I might pay $2,000 less in taxes a year in the US but my out of pocket costs for medications in addition to deductibles for all other health care far surpasses $2,000 a year. Don’t even get me started on the cost of university in the US compared to Germany. So taxes may be slightly higher in germany but the out of pocket costs for things that should be basic human rights far surpass $2,000 in the US.
@@cassidychambers5419 • Millionaires by Country 2023
The United States of America
In 2019, 587,000 people joined the millionaires club. The USA has long been the land of the "American Dream" where a person can rock up with nothing and work until they have a fortune.
Many in the USA have made their fortunes from oil, engineering, and international trade. The computer boom of the last 40 years has also provided more than a few millionaires.
Japan
It might surprise you that Japan hosts the second largest number of millionaires. According to some reports, there are over 3.39 millionaires. Japan is often known as the technology capital of the world. They have created many millionaires by investing in automotive and electronics technology.
Germany
While Germany is famous as a country with a strong economy and excellent engineering pedigree, did you know it had so many millionaires?
Europes largest economy reportedly hosts over 400,000 millionaires. Germany excels in four main industries:
• Automotive
• Mechanical engineering
• Chemical
• Electrical industries
• Likely you can immediately think of well-known brands such as Audi, Siemens, and other companies that are world leaders in these areas.
China
China has created a manufacturing industry of unprecedented proportions and invested in methods of shipping their wares around the world. They leverage their high workforce, sourced from their high population, to do this.
As a result, entrepreneurs and business leaders have reaped the benefits. There are 4.4 million millionaires in China according to recent reports
China has become known as the "World's Factory", however, will they continue to be so? Will other high population countries such as India and Indonesia start to take their market share? Only time will tell.

@@picklerick7207 germany has a different understanding of social life and work than the US have.
On one hand in germany you are handing 40-60% of your salary to the state but therefore the state pays for lots of things you have to pay yourself in the states. Also, as far as i know its not uncommon in the states to pay certain insurances and services that in germany just get payed from everybodies taxes. So if you are one of these ppl who pays a lot of these its probably not even a big diffence. Hiwever if you are not things can be very different. A good example is when you go to university. Student loans are a thing unheared of in germany and i dont need to tell you how big of a problem they are in the US. On the other hand in germany lots of ppl go to university who dont make much out of it. Probably more than in the US i would guess.
In short: its 2 completely systems with 2 completely different thoughts behind them and the complexity and what these systems entail makes it completely impossible to say one is better or worse. It really depends on what mindset you subscribe to.
Me personally i think germanies system does a much better job of helping the weak and keeping society together tighter. Like you dont need to be riich to go to the theater. The state pays the theaters so their cards are cheap and pretty much everybody can afford them (i think its about 10 bugs for a show). And thats a place where the rich, the medium wage and even the poor ppl meet up in a room every once in a while. US, as far as i know doesnt have such places and i think thats bad for a society. So i am totally on board with the "german mindset" and therefore this systems seems way better than what the US has. But i can totally understand ppl who see it differently.
Very informative video. I must say you are very insightful. What you said about Trump and what would happen to America came true. It is very scary times here in America. I wish we could move to Germany but my wife and I are in our 60's so I doubt we could obtain approval from the German Government. Anyway thanks again for posting your video.
Tank you so much! I wouldn't rule out being able to move here in normal times. As long as you can support yourself I believe it is possible.
