I honestly enjoy your videos
I have seen a number of German Christmas market videos
They seem to be focusing on the booze
I like your different perspective
So much fun and gorgeous! Who knew??? surfing in Munich! So glad you have family hanging out with you for a while!
You two are so energetic and fun to watch! And Munich is so beautiful. Thanks so much for taking us along. :)
Munich is so gorgeous! Great views!!!! Wow the church! How awesome the clock is!!! I agree Katherine, travel does take us out of our comfort zone, in a good way. Looks like I should plan to gain 10 lbs while in Munich!!! Adam show 'em how its done🏄! Stairs are your hiking adventure! I love your enthusiasm! Well we are officially saving up for Munich! It's where my Grandfather was born and raised and it looks fabulous!!! ❤
We hope you can get to Munich. It was such a wonderful experience. Everything from the sites, the food, and the people were top notch!
As a German and a former student in Munich, it is hilarious to see you exploring Munich! Have fun in Europe!
Hi guys, or hi you 2s, my name is Petra Nachtsheim, and wanted to say that l lived in Germany Munich over the years, l know München very well, and l truely miss it, recently for a reason l ended up here back in Canada ( long Story) but l sure hope someday l will return back home to Germany via Munich.
Munich is for me one of the most beautiful cities in the world, and everything in walking distance.
As with Marienplatz is concerned, l had lots of time either walked there per foot, or if one is in the hurry, one can take the " U-Bahn or S-Bahn " directly to Marienplatz, and l too more than enough did explore around Marienplatz, and especially around the christmas time, l really enjoyed there christmas markets, something l sure don't see in this country Canada 😢, and what l really mis now is the yearly Oktoberfest, here in Canada, the Canadians don't know that which l miss very much.
Just watching you 2s going through Munich makes me really homesick to go back home to Germany via Munich, l hope someday l will be able to go back there again.
Enjoy Munich, its such a beautiful city, l left my best girfriend behind in Munich which is for me very sad, l'm still in touch with her per whatsapp video chat, as l said, l hope someday l will return back home to Munich, l'd rather be in Munich than here in Canada.
Enjoy you 2s, and take care,
Petra Nachtsheim
Hi Petra, I can understand why you miss Munich. It looks beautiful and fascinating. I don’t know where you live in Canada but there is a Christmas market in Ottawa and possibly elsewhere. As a Canadian, I hope you discover the beauties of this country like A+K did and that you make plenty of new friends as well.
What a view from the tower…worth climbing all those steps! Boy did those donuts look yummy! The outtakes made me laugh especially Adam’s word choice at the end! 😂😂😂
Hello Suzanne, how are you doing today i hope you are having fun?
with know doubt i know you are enjoying the video right?
Germany is on my bucket list. I gotta lose the fear of flying first 😅
Great job again guy's!
I know that feel :(
Looks like y’all are having a wonderful adventure! How exciting to have your brothers join you! Adam’s final words were priceless!😂I can’t wait to see where else you take us!!🥰
It was very fun to have family with us!
Been following since Oklahoma. Love the adventures! This one in Germany was even better, as I was stationed throughout Germany and Vincenza Italy. Thanks for the nostalgia!
Enjoyed watching your video, it reminded me of the great memories I have while I was stationed in Augsburg for four years. Schnitzel with Pommes Frites was my favorite.
So impressed! I was born and raised in Munich living in DC; you are depicting activities and sights i have never encountered!!!!🎉
I’m so excited, I went to Munich 10 years ago and I get to go back in April!! 😁😁😁
Awesome! We hope you have a great time!
Hello Adventurers 😎😎, looks like yall are having a wonderful time in Munich and all of those delicious treats. Enjoy your time there😊😎.
We’re enjoying your German adventures. I say, “guten tag.”
Super fun video. Brings back lots of great memories. Thanks
Great video as always guys , enjoyed seeing Munich through your eyes
Glad to see you guys are back on you tube, enjoy all that comes in 2024
Thanks for taking us to Munich, Germany with you ❤😊!!! So atmospheric!, informative... AND YUMMY looking. 😂 🍩
Another well made video! I ahve been the city 12 years ago. Beautiful and interesting. There is a church outsidethe city called Andechs Monastery where sells beer in their buildings. They have a insteresting history about the church.
So happy to see you’re in Munich, we enjoyed spending 4 days there this October.
Really enjoying your trip. You guys went to some of our favorite places!! Yum!!!
Happy New Year! Great video! Bless you guys. ❤
So good to see you guys meeting up with family and friends while you're there in Munich.
It is always good to follow the two of you through your trips. Can't wait for the next destination.
So glad you are back - you are both so wholesome! Keep up the great work!
I've owned 14 BMW motorcycles that came from that region. I guess when it's too cold to ride, they surf the man made river,,eat, drink , and be merry.!! Glad to have seen part of Germany. Must be really pretty in summertime. 👍👍5🏍🙋♂️
Oh how cool! We went to the BMW museum off camera and it was pretty neat!
Love spending my Sunday with you in your travels, especially to places I haven't been....yet! I couldn't help noticing how on this video, with your delicious meals and treats, there was scant a green vegetable to be seen! Lots of sausages and fried things and drinks, which all looked delicious. Were ya missing the veggies at all, or eating those off-camera? :) Thanks again for sharing!!
haha yes we were missing fresh veggies and salads after awhile!
Great tour of Munich! Thank you for sharing!!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching
Happy New Year! Munich looks amazing. Thank you as always for sharing. Safe travels.
Happy New YEAR! Thanks, Jose!
The food looks incredible!
Woah the footage in this one was awesome 🤯🤯🤯🤯
Thank you! ❤
Guys OMG you make me hungry Germany looks great Thanks for sharing stay safe
Oktoberfest is really something you should experience even if you don't drink. You have other options to drink and so many different foods to eat. It is a family friendly event so drinking is obviously not required. Of course, you can get black out drunk too but Oktoberfest (or how the locals call it: "Die Wiesn") is anything you make it to be. Even Germans from other regions see it as an alcohol focused and sloppy event but those are lazy prejudices. I encourage everyone to try it out.
We'd like to experience it one day!
I've been in Germany in last Nov 2023...it's incredible experience for me ! Thank you guys for this video you made me remember How I visited the English garden to roll up a joint 😅
Munich is really amazing
Happy new year, Adam and Kathryn! Love to see you in Munich, this is a really beautiful town! Totally agree for getting out of our comfort zone when traveling abroad, and that brings so much energy :)
Happy New Year!
Munich was wonderful!
I’m getting hungry looking at those bakery items. Yum! ❤
Soooo much good food!
Thank you for this video! We are headed to Munich and Salzburg in 2 weeks and we appreciate your video!
Have a great trip!
Great video always wanted to visit Germany
It's so funny to see you get coffee from a place right around the corner from my office. Our team swears by the Italian Dinatale chain, though.
I have been to Munich in March 2023, the city feels intimate being not packed yet not empty.
I was at Cafe Frischhut over New Year's and sat at the exact same booth as you two! Crazy!
How cool!
Heya just want to say thank you for all the wonderful travel volgs you produce! Your commentary, photography, general info and energy is very interesting and entertaining! Happy New Year to you both and can't wait to see what's up with you in 2024!
Happy New Year! Thank you so much and thanks for watching!
Thank you thank you! We are staying right on the edge of Viktulienmarkt and wanted to go to the exact Weisswurst stand you went to- and we found it!!!! Delish! Heading to Andy’s for schnitzel tomorrow! Danke!
Ooooo we’re jealous! Enjoy!
always love a nice A+K video!
Thanks, Brian!
I’m pretty sure it’s called “Eisstockschiessen” in Germany. And is not exactly like curling. It’s fun. My family tried it years ago in Bavaria.
It looked like a lot of fun! Yeah it didn't look exactly like curling, but we didn't know the name of it in the moment. Thanks for sharing!
Hey y’all, I know it’s been a minute but we are currently planning our trip to sequoia early this summer. You guys our a big part of our trip planning. keep up the good work
Awesome! We hope to get out there some time this year as well! Thank you and thanks for watching!
Love your videos! You guys are my favorite.
Thank you and thanks for watching! ❤️
Always hungry when we watch your vlogs 😂
I always get the “kinder schnitzel”, a bit smaller. We love Bavaria!
Ahhh we didn't know that was an option! We'll do that next time! Or come hungrier! 😂
That first place where you ate the pastries is where my wife and I ate for breakfast one day when visiting the Christmas market a few years ago, and it was at that exact table. 😂
Oh how funny!
So glad you're both Meat Eaters!! Enjoy watching you both together and the positivity that shines through. Refreshing for sure.
Thank you and thanks for watching!
I love Germany, I’ve been there a few times. I also loved Poland and the Ukraine (this was 10 + years ago). Poland and the Ukraine were so cheap compared to EU countries! I also liked Austria (expensive though). Great video guys! My wife and I love watching your videos, keep up the good work!
Thank you and thanks for watching!
This video is the best by far for Munich travel, so entertaining and knowledgeable !
Thank you! ❤
Here's the thing about that Schnitzel -- Andys actually does them correctly and hammers them thin enough, which is very important. A properly hammered Schnitzel will always look gigantic (and be much more delicious) compared to one that's been barely beaten. It's not that vast an amount of meat!
Makes sense! It was super good!
🤣🤣🤣 your ending comments/bloopers are the BEST 😄 Thanks for putting up with all the stares to make another great video for us all to enjoy - worth it!!! 😉........ well for us 😛
😂😂 thank you and thanks for watching!
Will you all be visiting Prague...looks like it is so gorgeous & a train ride away from Munich 🚂
Hello it looks so pretty.
The portion sizes are huge! Contrary to what I heard of European sizes being small. Maybe the Germans brought the big size concept to America, since many immigrated to the states.
We were surprised by that as well! Maybe they did! Lots of German influence in Central Texas near where we live
it's true that traditional food is served in lager portions than modern dishes.
Wellcome to my hometown, you tried out one of the best Bavarian food, Weißwurst and Leberknödel.👍 And i like your pronauncation.😀
We tried hard with the pronunciations! Thank you and thanks for watching!
@@AdventuresofAplusK I like (and follow) your videos since years and got some good tips from you for my US-journeys, thank you for that!👍
Pronunciation heiß das Wort 😊
PS.
I also miss my Englische Garten Park, nice and huge, and l too had quite often walked there to the park or have met up with my best girfriend there for an on the way ice cream to leck on, so, Munich is never a boring city and l was there very very happy.
I hope to be home back to München in the next few years.
Petra.
SIMPLE BEAUTIFUL.....
The bread that u put sugar on in the beginning looks like a high class buñuelo Mexican treat.
Love this!! Also, are you guys planning on making an end of the year favorites video like you did the last couple years? 😁
Unfortunately we didn’t have the time to do it this year. Thanks for watching!
@@AdventuresofAplusK thanks for putting out great videos. :)
Schnitzel for days! OMG...so much. 😄
It was a Schnit-load of Schnitzel! So good! 😂
Bwahahahaha! You ate it all just for schnitz and giggles 🤣
Auf Wiedersehen Munchen!
Nice to see my hometown living there for nearly 70 years. Now I´m living in Romania. Its cheaper and more rural. I don't like to go back to Germany.
Me and my GF love your channel. Keep the amazing content coming! You guys should check out the Lake Placid/Whiteface Mt area in the Adrondaks in Upstate NY It's an amazing place! Stay safe and keep doing what you do.
Thanks so much for watching!
We have visited the Lake Placid area. We backpacked in the Adirondack Mountains and hiked Mt. Marcy...it was a doozy! Check out our video from there!
🇨🇦 You guys keep eating like that……… you might want to get some hiking in soon 😏 great job on your videos. We love travelling with you
haha yes we do miss hiking! Luckily we have gotten lots of walking!
Great video! You guys need to go to Amsterdam, Utrecht. My sister lives in Zeist and she did work in Utrecht but is retired. We are not Dutch but she has lived there since 1973. Been there twice. Highly recommended.
It's on the never ending list! 😂😊
It's really nice to see a couple who doesn't drink, 🍻 my husband and I don't drink for religious reasons so I'm happy to see more places welcome that and vegan options.
It is nice when we can visit places that are known for drinking and they have non alcoholic options. We also love a good mocktail! I'm not sure we will be of much help for the vegan options, though.
Thanks for watching!
What's the transport app and how much is it for a week and does it include only Munich as planning a trip to Nuremberg next month. Thanks
SO PILLOWYYY
Fun fact: Andy's Krablergarten was one of Freddy Mercury's favorite places where he often went when living in Munich in the 80s!
For Bavarian restaurants I would not recommend Hofbräuhaus at all though. The quality is not good and it's mainly a tourist trap. You have to go to the backside of Hofbräuhaus instead though and buy bread from Hofbräuhaus-Kunstmühle, which is the last operating mill in the city of Munich and it's literally right in the middle of the city. They make excellent bread and awesome desserts :)
Oh how cool!
We just wanted to go to experience the vibe of Hofbräuhaus and it was a lot of fun!
I had to laugh when you commented about using different currency. The only time I got to visit Munich was on a 4 country biz trip in the late '90's. The euro wasn't established everywhere yet, so i had 4 currency's worth of expense reports to prepare.
That would be a challenge!
Which Northface coat do you have? I absolutely love it. It’s gorgeous!
Hi! It is the North Face Gotham. We got it at an outlet and we think it's a prior season edition so we don't know if they make it any more! Thank you!
I like that they have a non-alcoholic version too. Adventures of Matt and Nat said they experienced the German staring thing too. Apparently there it's not seen as rude.🤷♀
We enjoyed the non alcoholic drinks as well! It's a nice feature. It's interesting to notice those cultural differences
To eat the white sausage you can just make a cut along the sausage and peel the whole thing at once. But there are tons of ways to peel it. Its like its own science in munich. But you always eat it with a pretzel to switch the flavors a bit or its too meaty or heavy. And traditionally you would even drink a wheat beer with it and eat it before noon. Usually people do this on sundays. But nowadays people also eat it after noon. In the past it had something do do with sausages going bad because there were no refrigerators or something like this. So the tradition is before noon.
And the pretzel has too much salt by design so you can choose how much you want on there. If its too salty just brush some off.
The sweet Mustard you can buy in any grocery store if you want to bring it home. Its pretty cheap like 2€ or something for a glass jar. I dont think you get this anywhere else in the world.
Thanks for the info!
Goulash in Germany is a stew or ragout. It's even more common in the Czech Republic (less spicy/tomato-y, more savory, it's darker) where it is also a ragout. But it originates from Hungary where it is called "Pörkölt". The real goulash in Ungary is a soup.
They bought it at the soup kitchen, so it was goulash soup, not Hungarian goulash
Thank you for sharing!
@@AdventuresofAplusK I like your videos and I have subscribed. Will you make a video about Vienna some day?
@@santaclaus0815 I recently wondered if there is a difference between a ragout and goulash and ask a friend who is a cook. Though similar there are differences, e.g. the order you fry the ingridients in the pot like meat first or onion first , plus a ragout could have smaller pieces of meat while a goulash could be more chunky.
❤❤❤❤
hi, can we fly the drone around Munich? super informative vlog btw
Hi! The drone laws in Germany (and Europe in general) were not very straightforward so we decided not to fly it there. There are lots of restricted zones and regulations about the license, etc.
Sorry if that isn't very helpful. Thank you for watching!
11:40
Schnitzel isn't Austrian - Veil Schnitzel is Austrian, which is also called Wiener Schnitzel. The schnitzel itself probably came from outside, somewhere in the South of Europe. It's origin has been lost. But there are many variations in Europe, with the Wiener Schnitzel being the most famous one.
Since you said it's pork it's definitely not Austrian though.
Thanks for sharing!
Hi there! What app did you use for the public transportation? TIA
Hi! We used MVG Fahrinfo München. Thanks for watching!
I can imagine, that Munich was not part of Germany in the 1500's, since there was technically no Germany back then - just the HRE of which Bavaria was a part of.
Shnitzel isn't "Austrian" it's pan Germanic. Wiener Schnitzel is Austrian primarilarly but that one is only made with veal.
Thanks for sharing!
Hi Daniel,
from Petra,
I just started answering you back, but my message got lost while l was writing and in between your video this commerical l was trying to get rid of through that, l lost my message, l have to get back to you on that. Petra
Why don't you guys drink alcohol?
Mostly because it costs a lot of money and it isn't very healthy for a variety of reasons
Cheating on Kona while in Germany?
Kona just called! She said she intends to bite her mom when she gets back home. Mommy petted another dog in Germany and thus was unfaithful!!!! SHAME!!!
haha we are missing our Kona girl BIG TIME!
13:32 don’t do this type of hand gesture ever again please. Particularly not in Germany/Munich.
Can you please explain why?
@@AdventuresofAplusK that’s the nazi salute. Greetings from Germany
We were dancing. Definitely not what we intended
I'm a little worried about your poor feeding, not too healthy!!!! Please consider to go to mediterranean diet!!! Greetings from Italy!!
One of the worst cities that I have ever been! I suggest you to visit not overrated cities like Lubljana, Straudsburg, Luzern and so on..
Sorry you feel that way. We had a wonderful time in Munich. All of those cities are on our list as well for one day!
