I believe that as long as you have loved ones by your side, it is not difficult to adapt to a new place, but the most important thing is to be considerate of each other in everything. I hope you are so happy wherever you are, and I support you!❤
Not boring at all. I actually like content like this where I get to know more about the people. I'm all about security and stability so leaving the comfortable space behind is very difficult. Moving overseas is even worse. Fortunately, I had a relatively easy start in the US because I already spoke English and had some friends and contacts. But as a foreigner in the county, I had the same headache of keeping up with the legal status everytime there was any change like school transfer/work. So happy that I do not have to worry about any of those paper works related to legal status anymore! Yay!! Now, I am moving to Germany in three weeks. My German is pretty much super basic, and Germans typically switch to English when I struggle to speak, out of good intention, but this makes learning German rather difficult. I'm both excited and scared about the move at the same time. I have a German husband so I'm not terribly unprepared but still it will be a major challenge for me to adapt to a new country. In a way we will be in a similar situation as you and Thanh, a German and a non-German couple in Germany. We have our family there which is nice, but we have almost no friends since my hubby has been out of Germany for well over 10 years. Still, I'm trying to be hopeful. Wish us all the best!! By the way, is Thanh pronounced more like Tang? I have no knowledge of the Vietnamese language but just figured Thanh sounds like Tahn just based on the spelling. After watching some of your videos, I really want to visit Danang one fine day!!
Thank you! I'm glad you liked the video! Yeah, the changes in the legal status can be very tiring, I know this very well from living in Vietnam for so long. That's actually one thing I'm looking forward to: full rights for both of us in Germany, yay! Haven't had those in a long time. Don't worry, I'm sure you can figure out the German too. It will take some time, but most Germans are usually very helpful with that and used to foreigner trying to learn German. Thanh's name is pronounced a bit like if you say "Thai" and add "ng". His name has no tone, so it's a flat, even pronunciation. Maybe in the next video, I can include a part about that (though I gotta figure out how to explain that :D). And yes, Danang is awesome! Thank you so much for your support! ❤❤❤
Its a difficult situation in Vietnam and in Germany. I had a same situation. Between Thailand and Switzerland. My husband suffered a lot to not be in Thailand. So i got back with him. Now we live Ko Samui with our Restaurant. Life IS coming very good for US. I wish you that you find a solution. Maybe in a Sunny country like Italy, France.
Oh yes, that doesn't sound easy either. To be honest, I (Etienne) am mostly afraid of Thanh not being able to integrate and establish his life in Germany. Especially at the beginning, when we both don't have many friends, and he needs to learn the language, I want to focus on making this as easy as possible for him. But yes, we will have a look at other EU countries too in the future. Thank you for your support!
@@etivathanh My view is that it's much easier when at least one of the two in the relationship is a citizen, or at least perfectly comfortable with the language and the culture of the land. I guess it depends on the people, but when both are strangers in the land, it can be that much more difficult to navigate and adapt. You are going back to your homeland. Not enough connections initially but you speak the language and you know the culture even with some recent changes you mentioned. and you can help Thanh with the language and the culture much easier as a native. Plus, you speak and understand the Vietnamese well ( I don't know but you obviously converse with him and others in Vietnamese and you have spent 10 years in Vietnam, so I would assume as such?). It will only help your relationship grow stronger as Thanh learns to speak German and gains better understanding of the culture I believe. More things about you will make sense to him. Once he's comfortable in the language and the culture, then, perhaps, you could consider moving around? but of course, you have to follow where they offer the best opportunities for you both.
@@MrWhitney4e Yeah, that's true. In a way that's easier. However, I also see the risk that, while I can probably re-integrate into German society easier (though, I'm not completely sure about this either), it will be more difficult for Thanh, and we will not always do everything together (e.g. when he gets a job). But in general, I think it's probably still easier if at least one of us knows the country, culture rather well. I'm not sure I'd call Germany my homeland. It was the place I was born and grew up, but "home" has a such a complex meaning. Nevertheless, you're right. I can help Thanh a lot, of course. And yeah, I'm fluent in Vietnamese too (though we mostly use English with each other). I also think it's a good idea to stay in Germany at least for a while and then see where it takes us.
I'm just glad that you have one another, in such an uprooting type of forced move. A new chapter is starting for you both and I'm a new sub along for the ride!!
You got this!! Sorry that Vietnam is not going to work out as of now but maybe later on down the line 🫂 but hey you got my wife and I cheering you on also in germany!!🎉🎉🎉
Aww, thank you so much for you support! It's going to be an adventure (really, there are so many things to organise), but I think it's going to be fine.
@etivathanh I know it'll be hard at first, especially for thanh i think from time to time but you guys got this🫂 I've been here almost a year and studying German but I still can't speak to well 🫠 der , die,das , er, sie,Sie ect is killing me...🫠🫥🤣 I know how it feels to be homesick, zero friends around me and ect. since I came all the way from the US 🫠 but you guys got this !! 🎉🎉🎉
Good luck to you both. What a wrench. One good thing is that you could both get married in Germany should you want to. That would give you legal rights, and who knows, If Vietnam does eventually accept gay marriage, you would hopefully be able to go back to Vietnam as an already married couple with legal rights. Remember when times get tough, that love will conquer everything. You just have to work out how you are going to make a living when in Germany so that financial pressures don't add to your problems.
Thank you so much! ❤ We are already married, though we did get married in Denmark last year. Yeah, the finances will be a bit tough in the beginning, but I think we can make it.
Very interesting and informative video. Its so sad that you need to leave Vietnam for those reasons. I left Germany almost 20 years ago and completely understand what you mean by saying that things will have changed and that it is also like going to a new place for you. I wish you both strength, happiness and success for this new chapter in your life and I am looking forward to all of your upcoming videos. May you be blessed in all you do! ❤
Im suddenly very sad… sad that you have to move out of a country that you both want to live in (and also me are looking for the possibility to live in Danang). If I were you I would probably stay with a tourist visa and cross the border once a month… or try to extend the visa until you have to cross the border. For both your sake. But Im sure you have both discussed this and agree on that Germany is the best choice right now. I really really hope you two stay close together and that you take good care of Thanh in a foreign country for him. Love from Sweden ❤
Yeah, it is kind of sad in a way... I spend a lot of time getting used to everything here, learning the language, the culture, and so on. A tourist visa would unfortunately make things only more difficult (rights, health insurance, bank accounts, etc.), so yeah, at the moment, Germany is the best option. Thank you so much for your support! ❤❤❤
@@etivathanh Lets hope it will not be so bad moving to Germany. And it doesnt need to be forever. I wish you both luck and wish you the best in future. You have already given me so much joy and happyness by sharing your life together through RUclips. When I see that you two can find this love in life, I start thinking maybe also I can find a guy to love and be loved by. Love from Sweden ❤️
@@gustavgron2252 Yeah, let's hope that. There are actually a lot of good things about living in Germany, and maybe it's even really good for us. Thank you so much for your support! I'm sure you will find someone to love and be loved by too ❤️
That's a major shift for both of you and I can understand and sympathise with all the changes that you are bound to face. Of course you will have my support and I wish you all the best for the next few months and will follow your move to Germany where I hope life will be OK until you decide where you really want to be. Hugs from the UK. D xx
All the best for this huge change! I hope you find a place in Germany where you feel comfortable and at home. It's not easy, we Germans don't tend to be the most welcoming as you know, but in or around a big city with many internationals, like Hamburg, chances are you find a cool community with people from all over the world :) When you settled and feel like travelling in Europe, you're welcome to visit me in Helsinki and I could show you around :)
Aww, thank you sooo much! ❤ Yeah, let's see. For the beginning, everything seems quite good. We found a cosy apartment (which we will probably introduce too when the time comes), and it's super close to most important locations. We would be super happy to come and visit you in Helsinki! ❤
Love your channel and both of you. Could Thanh take like a one month intensive German course or something? Not sure how it works and I'm sure you've already thought of that. Hope he settles down well and you're both happy.
I wish you both all the best in your move to Germany or wherever you may chose to live, So sad that you have to leave Vietnam as you seem so settled, I hope with the support and love you’ll both give each other it goes Ok ❤❤❤❤
Dios los guarde y los proteja donde quiera que vayas 🙏 lo importante es que se tienen el uno al otro y que se mantengan unidos. 🫶 Seguiré viendo sus vídeos chicos. 😊 Les esperan nuevos retos y aventuras, donde quiera que estén les deseo mucha felicidad. Supongo que será difícil para Thanh alejarse de su familia y amigos, al igual que usted qué está lejos de su familia. Cuiden mucho el uno al otro. Ahora ustedes son familia ❤
Not sure yet, to be honest :D Thanh is still renovating his dad's house for at least this week. I think we'll take it easy and maybe gift ourselves a spa & wellness day (we thought about travelling, but given that Germany is so close, we'll have enough travelling soon). What about you?
O Brasil tem um clima e paisagem que se parece com Vietnã e de modo geral não é xenofóbico, pelo contrário, recebe muitíssimo bem os estrangeiros. E o povo gosta muito de fazer amizade e ajudar quem vem de fora do país. A cidade onde moro é São Leopoldo, considerada o berço da colonização alemã no sul do país. Tentamos manter as boas tradições alemãs. Há algumas vantagens na lei para estrangeiros. Sei que não deve ser uma opção para vocês, existe muito preconceito contra América Latina, mas falei sobre isso só para vocês terem mais uma opção para pensar a respeito, pois com certeza seriam recebidos com muito carinho. Problemas todos têm onde quer que estejam, mas o que importa é vocês ficarem juntos e felizes ❤
Thank you so much for the suggestion! Actually, I (Etienne) personally think that Brazil might be great. What you've told us about the general perception of couples like us and São Leopoldo sounds pretty nice! We will definitely keep that in mind. Thank you ❤❤❤
Vielen lieben Dank! ❤ Gerne! Vielleicht sind wir gar nicht so weit weg von Hannover (hängt davon ab, ob wir wirklich die Wohnung bekommen, die ich erwähnt hatte).
Dann drücke ich Euch fest die Daumen✊🏻✊🏻 Auch das viele deiner Bedenken nicht zum Tragen kommen und Ihr Euch einfach wohl fühlen werdet in Deutschland 💖🌸
We actually would! Despite being European, I (Eti) have never been there yet, but everything I've seen and heard really makes me want to come and visit at least. Whereabout are living, city or countryside?
This was a few months ago. I hope it all worked out for you both! I guess a spousal visa is only for straight couples as same sex marriage is not legal in Vietnam. It is complicated and I have to figure it out as I like a guy from Korea.
So far, everything has been working out fine. Thank you! Yes, those visas are only for straight couples in Vietnam...our marriage had effectively no meaning in Vietnam. At least in Germany, we can live together without fearing that one of us needs to go.
@@etivathanhYay! That is great and hope you guys are living happily in Germany. My boyfriend is living there right now to study. I hope to visit him one day and would love to meet you guys too! I am straight and a girl so I hope it will be easy for me and my boyfriend if we ever married.
@@TrinhNguyen-sh4fj That sounds great! We hope you guys can be close to each other soon too! And yes, if you're here, let us know and we can try to meet up! ❤
@@TrinhNguyen-sh4fj Hey, yeah sure! It's probably best if you send us some contact details via email. You can find the contact form on our website, etivathanh.com.
I think it will be difficult for both. Tech it will be hard for him. In veitnam married to a veitnam person should have some legal options to stay in veitnam. Please let's keep in contact
I don't know if you married in Vietnam would of helped. But my suggestion is look up Thailand. I will be retiring in Thailand. So I would look into that. They speak english in Thailand.
@@robertrodriguez9329 So far, we can't get married in Vietnam because there's no same-sex marriage. Thailand maybe is an option at some point, at least for retirement, though we're still a bit far away from that.
When you finish your studies can someone sponsor you for a job in Veitnam. Just trying to help a fear person. I am an American living in the big apple in New York City in the USA.
War es für dich nicht möglich, das Ein-/Ausreise-Visa-Spiel zu spielen, um weiterhin in Vietnam zu leben? Ich frage, ohne deine spezifischen Beschäftigungsumstände und die Wohnsituation deines Freundes zu kennen, aber ich kann mir vorstellen, dass es einfach ist, eine Mietwohnung zu finden. Ich habe viele Freunde in Vietnam, die genau das tun: ab und zu für einen Ausflug hier und da gehen und dann mit einem neuen Visum wieder ins Land einreisen.
Jap, das wäre theoretisch möglich, um zumindest für eine Weile in Vietnam zu bleiben. Dauerhaft ist es allerdings weniger hilfreich, denn die ohnehin schon wenigen Rechte, die man als Ausländer in Vietnam genießt, sind noch mal weiter eingeschränkt, wenn man nur Tourist ist: Kein vernünftiges Bankkonto, Versicherung geht dann theoretisch nur eine internationale, Einkommensquellen vollständig abhängig von Remote-Work, usw... Schlimmer noch sind dann so krasse Geschichten, wie nicht füreinander da sein zu können, wenn es mal richtig notwendig wäre. Wenn Thanh beispielsweise im Krankenhaus wäre, hätte ich, obwohl ich anderswo legal sein Mann bin, keinerlei Recht in Vietnam, irgendwelche Entscheidungen zu treffen. Alles in allem ist dann langfristig also keine Lösung...
Hallo wie geht es euch ich bin Mega berührt für eure Geschichten kommt in der Schweiz zu leben ist viel besser ich stehe für bei Sexuellen Heirat❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ wie macht tolle Videos ich bin sehr fasziniert euer Leben in Vietnam liebe Grüsse aus der Schweiz von Andrea euren Big Fan
Ihr müsst ja nicht hier in Deutschland bleiben Frankreich ist ne gute Option da viele Ausländer dort leben Grade in Paris aber dann Paris ist ein teures pflaster 😢 Italien ist im Moment was Ausländer betrifft eher schwierig.
Das stimmt. Wir werden sicherlich nach anderen Optionen schauen. Erst mal ist Deutschland eine gute Basis, aber auf Dauer werden wir vielleicht woanders landen. Ja, das mit Italien hab ich auch gehört...
Hi 👋 I was thinking the same, I think another European country may be a good option 😊 I am so sorry you have to leave next year. It is going to be a new challenge, but I sincerely wish you all the best in the future 😊 I know you can do it 😊 ✨️ 🫶 🙏
Yeah, I'm curious to try Italy, Spain, Greece, or so. But first we have to kind of set up a first base in Germany, I guess. Although Thanh can go with me to any EU country, I also need to establish a long-term reason to be there (apartment, maybe a job). I gotta look into that first :D Thank you so much for your support! ❤
@etivathanh yes, you are completely correct, afterwords I suggest Spain and Portugal, Italy it is very expensive, almost like Germany, but it's soon for you to be thinking about that 😀 See you in the next one 👋 ✨️ 🫶 🙏
Basically, yes. It's even an EU law that grants equal rights to one's spouse in all EU members states. So, we could also move to Italy, Spain, Denmark, and so on.
What a big change! I hope it's as positive as possible, I can't wait to see your guys' content and experiences in Germany
Thank you so much! ❤ We will keep you all updated :)
I believe that as long as you have loved ones by your side, it is not difficult to adapt to a new place, but the most important thing is to be considerate of each other in everything. I hope you are so happy wherever you are, and I support you!❤
You're absolutely right! Thank you so much for you support! ❤❤❤
Not boring at all. I actually like content like this where I get to know more about the people.
I'm all about security and stability so leaving the comfortable space behind is very difficult. Moving overseas is even worse.

But as a foreigner in the county, I had the same headache of keeping up with the legal status everytime there was any change like school transfer/work.
So happy that I do not have to worry about any of those paper works related to legal status anymore! Yay!!

Dann drücke ich Euch fest die Daumen✊🏻✊🏻 Auch das viele deiner Bedenken nicht zum Tragen kommen und Ihr Euch einfach wohl fühlen werdet in Deutschland 💖🌸
@@andreapalag-qc6tw Danke dir 😊
Would you consider Ireland? We're very nice and welcoming.
We actually would! Despite being European, I (Eti) have never been there yet, but everything I've seen and heard really makes me want to come and visit at least. Whereabout are living, city or countryside?
Just subbed ❤❤❤
Thanks for subbing! ❤
Thực sự yêu mến 2 bạn và luôn ủng hộ kênh. Chúc 2 bạn hạnh phúc, bình an và luôn may mắn
Cảm ơn bạn rất nhiều vì ủng hộ bọn mình ❤❤❤
This was a few months ago. I hope it all worked out for you both! I guess a spousal visa is only for straight couples as same sex marriage is not legal in Vietnam. It is complicated and I have to figure it out as I like a guy from Korea.
So far, everything has been working out fine. Thank you! Yes, those visas are only for straight couples in Vietnam...our marriage had effectively no meaning in Vietnam. At least in Germany, we can live together without fearing that one of us needs to go.
@@etivathanhYay! That is great and hope you guys are living happily in Germany. My boyfriend is living there right now to study. I hope to visit him one day and would love to meet you guys too! I am straight and a girl so I hope it will be easy for me and my boyfriend if we ever married.
@@TrinhNguyen-sh4fj That sounds great! We hope you guys can be close to each other soon too! And yes, if you're here, let us know and we can try to meet up! ❤
@@etivathanhI am late and yes, I was going to ask if we can meet if I did get to come to Germany.❤ Thanks so much for your kindness and support too.
@@TrinhNguyen-sh4fj Hey, yeah sure! It's probably best if you send us some contact details via email. You can find the contact form on our website, etivathanh.com.
My first reaction is, what language will Thanh speak? 🗣️ Will you find a place where there are a lot of English speakers?
He will continue to learn German. But luckily, many Germans at least also speak basic English, and we might even find some Vietnamese folks nearby.
I think it will be difficult for both. Tech it will be hard for him. In veitnam married to a veitnam person should have some legal options to stay in veitnam. Please let's keep in contact
I agree, I would appreciate it if Vietnam could open up with this and enable couples like us to stay here.
I don't know if you married in Vietnam would of helped. But my suggestion is look up Thailand. I will be retiring in Thailand. So I would look into that. They speak english in Thailand.
@@robertrodriguez9329 So far, we can't get married in Vietnam because there's no same-sex marriage. Thailand maybe is an option at some point, at least for retirement, though we're still a bit far away from that.
@@etivathanh it just an option and that far from veitnam. Also you can a Condo with everything on it very cheap.
When you finish your studies can someone sponsor you for a job in Veitnam. Just trying to help a fear person. I am an American living in the big apple in New York City in the USA.

So couple ❤️❤️
So beautiful couple 💞

War es für dich nicht möglich, das Ein-/Ausreise-Visa-Spiel zu spielen, um weiterhin in Vietnam zu leben? Ich frage, ohne deine spezifischen Beschäftigungsumstände und die Wohnsituation deines Freundes zu kennen, aber ich kann mir vorstellen, dass es einfach ist, eine Mietwohnung zu finden. Ich habe viele Freunde in Vietnam, die genau das tun: ab und zu für einen Ausflug hier und da gehen und dann mit einem neuen Visum wieder ins Land einreisen.
Jap, das wäre theoretisch möglich, um zumindest für eine Weile in Vietnam zu bleiben. Dauerhaft ist es allerdings weniger hilfreich, denn die ohnehin schon wenigen Rechte, die man als Ausländer in Vietnam genießt, sind noch mal weiter eingeschränkt, wenn man nur Tourist ist: Kein vernünftiges Bankkonto, Versicherung geht dann theoretisch nur eine internationale, Einkommensquellen vollständig abhängig von Remote-Work, usw... Schlimmer noch sind dann so krasse Geschichten, wie nicht füreinander da sein zu können, wenn es mal richtig notwendig wäre. Wenn Thanh beispielsweise im Krankenhaus wäre, hätte ich, obwohl ich anderswo legal sein Mann bin, keinerlei Recht in Vietnam, irgendwelche Entscheidungen zu treffen.
Alles in allem ist dann langfristig also keine Lösung...
Hallo wie geht es euch ich bin Mega berührt für eure Geschichten kommt in der Schweiz zu leben ist viel besser ich stehe für bei Sexuellen Heirat❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ wie macht tolle Videos ich bin sehr fasziniert euer Leben in Vietnam liebe Grüsse aus der Schweiz von Andrea euren Big Fan
Hallo Andrea, vielen lieben Dank! ❤ Die Schweiz wäre schon cool, aber dann bräuchten wir erst mal Jobs dort. Danke für deine Unterstützung! ❤
Hi cute couple
Hope you doing great around anywhere 💫
Hi there, thank you so much! ❤

Ihr müsst ja nicht hier in Deutschland bleiben Frankreich ist ne gute Option da viele Ausländer dort leben Grade in Paris aber dann Paris ist ein teures pflaster 😢 Italien ist im Moment was Ausländer betrifft eher schwierig.
Das stimmt. Wir werden sicherlich nach anderen Optionen schauen. Erst mal ist Deutschland eine gute Basis, aber auf Dauer werden wir vielleicht woanders landen.
Ja, das mit Italien hab ich auch gehört...
Don't hurt your boyfriend
I won't (he's my husband btw ;))
@@etivathanh wow really 😍
@@irshadkhan-yf3ph Yep :)
Hi 👋 I was thinking the same, I think another European country may be a good option 😊
I am so sorry you have to leave next year. It is going to be a new challenge, but I sincerely wish you all the best in the future 😊
I know you can do it 😊
✨️ 🫶 🙏
Yeah, I'm curious to try Italy, Spain, Greece, or so. But first we have to kind of set up a first base in Germany, I guess. Although Thanh can go with me to any EU country, I also need to establish a long-term reason to be there (apartment, maybe a job). I gotta look into that first :D
Thank you so much for your support! ❤
@etivathanh yes, you are completely correct, afterwords I suggest Spain and Portugal, Italy it is very expensive, almost like Germany, but it's soon for you to be thinking about that 😀
See you in the next one 👋
✨️ 🫶 🙏
@@paulamoura4942 Oh, I didn't know. Then maybe Spain or Portugal is better :D
@etivathanh yes, but you both, after being in Germany, have time to look and decide what is best 👍
@@paulamoura4942 You're right :)
Germany will allow thanh to stay indefinitely with you with no visa issues? Wow
Basically, yes. It's even an EU law that grants equal rights to one's spouse in all EU members states. So, we could also move to Italy, Spain, Denmark, and so on.
Try moving to Thailand.
Could be an option, though I'm not sure what kind of visa we should get then
