Schön, mal wieder von Dir zu hören. Freut mich, dass es Dir besser geht.

[@hans-dieternichau5467]

A lovely hello from Hamburg! It's a shame you're no longer here,I miss your Videos a lot! It's nice that you can still show Feelings for Germany! I hope you visit us again soon! All the best for your Future! Greetings from Hamburg, it's cold here and its snowing ☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️🙋

[@klausmogensen8691]

Nice to see you again. Glad to hear that you are doing better mentally

[@BigZig29]

She’s an attention seeker

[@ericballi4701]

I feel you. Germany withdrawal is a real thing! I last lived in Germany in 2017/2018 and last visited in summer 2018. I still miss it. Still daydream about it. Remembering driving on the small village roads through the hills. Grabbing yummy pastries from the bakery. I wonder if I will get back one day. No plans as of now.

[@youtubeaxel9030]

Dogs may travel too.... ;-) Thanks for sharing your life with us. So good to see you again.... Enjoy your life! Greetings from Germany! Tschüß.

[@butenbremer1965]

THANK YOU SO MUCH for your positive shoutout to Kassel - one of the touristically most underrated cities in GER. I was born in Bremen (close to Oldenburg) and now domiciliate in Frankfurt (somewhat close to Kassel) in the state of Hesse. Sure hoping to welcoming you in GER again soon!

[@patrickschindler2583]

In the Middle Ages, Germany had no border fences, so castles on hills also served to protect the population from attacks.

[@gowest19]

A late happy new year and nice to see you again. Remember some places and timestamps bring emotional feelings and memories.Sometimes with little waterworks.Stay well

[@harrydehnhardt5092]

I must admitt that seeing you so moved also moved me. Best wishes from Frankurt. See you next time. Tschüss!!!

[@renetr6771]

Hätte dein Alter auf höchstens 25 geschätzt. Schön, dass es dir bei uns gefallen hat.

[@phil24782]

So unexpected after all this time! Greetings from a snow covered Hamburg!

[@3HR3NGR4B]

If you ever visit Austria/Vienna you should check out: 1. Stephansdom 2. Tiergartenschönbrunn & Schloss Schönbrunn 3. Natur & Kunsthistorisches Museum 4. Wiener Rathaus & Hofburg 5. Burg Kreuzenstein (not in Vienna but very close too) 6. Wiener Würstel Prater 7. Hundertwasserhaus 8. UNO-City 9. Arsenal / Heeresgeschichtliche Museum 10. Wiener Zentralfriedhof I could continue my List to about 100 Sightseeing features and you have to plan for a Week or much longer to visit all! 🤷‍♂

[@reko7264]

Freue mich wieder was von dir zu hören. Wünsche dir ein schönes Jahr 2024.

[@stefanjung4454]

Hallo, ein gutes, erfolgreiches neues Jahr wünsche ich dir! Schön mal wieder was von dir zu hören.

[@wizardm]

Nice to hear from you again.

[@jumper83OS]

Hey nice to see a new video. I've been following your channel for ages 😃 and I'm glad you're feeling better. I hope we'll see more videos in the future and maybe you'll make it back to Germany soon. Greetings from North Rhine-Westphalia 👋

[@martinheinzbecker9754]

So good to see you. You wanna come back for a while in the future. Like you mentioned, one of the best things about germany is that it is in the middle of Europe. So find a cozy space maybe on the country side next to a bigger city as a hub and then do camper van or other trips from there to see more of Europe :-)

[@tumorra951]

Happy you uploaded! ( :

[@gp6720]

Great to see you again 😊 - alles Gute für Dich!!! 😊

[@Steven91637]

Frohes neues Jahr 🎉😊

[@konydabig5390]

Iam Happy to see you again😁I've been following you some years ago. You seem to be suffering a lot from not being in Germany anymore, do yourself a favor and change that as soon as possible. You shouldn't put your life above that of your dogs, you only have this life! Because the older you get, the more difficult it becomes to cope with changes in your life , happy new year 🥳🥳

[@pedro89174]

Good to see U again, Happiness in the new year.

[@wheelz8240]

Lila's back! Good to see you again old friend

[@alexradojkovic9671]

Nice to see someone who has lived in Oldenburg i.O. 👍👍 I went to school there for a couple of years when I once lived in Germany.

[@eredontalan5878]

Willkommen zurück und Gruß aus Hamburg.

[@eagle1de227]

Glad to see you back again ! But also sorry to hear thing didn't developed as good as you'd have deserved it. About your topics, in a nutshell: "Du hast Fernweh" !!! Just know you're still welcome over here. Even with your dogs ;-)

[@marcheil9193]

Great Video!

[@ronaldv_tm]

Frohes neues Jahr und willkommen zurück! Ich freue mich, dass du Deutschland vermisst und hoffe, dass du zurückkommst! Vergess dabei nicht, auch ab und zu die Niederlande zu besuchen. Ich weiß, dass du in Elburg warst, aber ich würde dir wirklich gerne das nahegelegene Harderwijk zeigen!

[@GGGrapefruit]

Great to hear you are doing well. As for Hamburg you are not missing much. Weather is miserable, tram regularly on strike, but at least a few cool new restaurants opened up.

[@michaelherrmann3423]

Great to see you. Greetings from Cologne. Michael

[@Abdullaabdulla-oi4zx]

Kannst Du denn täglich ordentlich lüften, Lila? 😉🤓😂 Frohes neues Jahr, viel Glück und Erfolg für 2024. 🍀🌹

[@bkhkh7285]

Wherenever you felt yourself good, happy and young this place inprint in you mind for good) I have been in Atlanta GA back in time, and still have the nostalgia of that time)

[@HiFromHamburg]

That makes sense how you explained it 🥹☺️

[@bkhkh7285]

OH!)) Sorry if it was a bit clumsy) Haven't speak english for ages. But you have an idea..@@HiFromHamburg

[@wtsalive8210]

Als erstes: Ich wünsche Dir ein schönes, erfolgreiches neues Jahr und viel Gesundheit. Schön mal wieder was von Dir zu hören!…wurde aber auch Zeit😁. Viele haben Dich vermisst! Jetzt habe ich noch eine Frage und auch gleichzeitig eine Empfehlung: Da Du Techno sehr schätzt, warst Du schon mal in Tomorrowland? Was da abgeht ist unglaublich! In der Hoffnung in Zukunft wieder mehr von Dir zu hören Bis bald

[@vbvideo1669]

Hi, nice to see you again. Happy New Year! :)

[@Schalalai]

Hope your are doing good. Sending some greetings from Germany :)

[@petersfluege]

I can understand you very well. You are a great person. Take your dogs come to Germany or Austria, PLEASE!

[@narve7337]

12:00 you should try listening to Electric Callboy, they don't mix rock with hip hop but rock with techno :) maybe that's more your thing :>

[@uliwehner]

now that is solid advice :)

[@jensschroder8214]

Nice to see you again. Haven't heard from you in a long time. Did you set new goals when you turned 30?

[@miguelagramos]

I miss germany too. Hamburg 14year...

[@LUD3838]

cool vid 🎉

[@andreasjanen6617]

2:04 Grüße aus Hamburg Finkenwerder....bis demnächst wieder in Hamburg ...

[@jha6783]

You made some experiance in germany. It sounds like as you would have had a good time. I wish you all the best. Keep the same person that you are.It`s nice that you have good rememberance of your german time in your life. Sorry for my bad english.

[@moschidreamer]

No austria?! ohh... you missed something! I am Berliner, and love the austian mountains a lot.

[@Freinersen]

Not even half through and I already got something in my eye.

[@Wonzling0815]

6:39 Actually, some locals like me would also love to meet visitors from abroad who are just eploring. Meeting someone who is on vacation and sharing their wonder is almost as good as going on vacation yourself...and much less expensive :)

[@beluch2768]

It's great to see you back again! You're so beautiful.

[@iuciubbb]

Schön, dass du wieder da bist! Dein Wiederauftritt kommt ganz überraschend vor. Du machst keinen Hehl draus, wie sehr du Deutschland vermisst. Also hör auf dein Bauchgefühl, und betrachte: deine Hunde sollten kein Hindernis für dich sein.

[@danielkaethner5994]

Happy new year and you´re very welcome back here in Hamburg - We like people like you - even if they´re Amis ;)

[@esserr1]

hey, du lebst ja noch :D - kann mich meinen vorrednern nur anschließen und sagen: schön, dich mal wieder zu sehen / hören.

[@Thoringer]

Hey, German expat in the US here. Totally get the dating thing criticism. The culture is quite different here, and I'm not buying into that, and I told the women I went out with that in the past as well. I think it may be off-putting to some, don't know, but I am very blunt about things like that. Maybe that is my ADHD (oh, 7-shot espresso moka in the morning works for me), or just being raised German, but that is an absolute no-go to waste time on someone who does not have a relationship as goal. PS: I was wondering if you could find a German expat group to hang out with for your German? I mean, I live in San Antonio, Texas, my sis one county over, and I know she has a German group she visits with once in a while.

[@michaelthomas8592]

Shared tears with you... Best Regards from the Ruhrgebiet, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany :o)

[@Wonzling0815]

15:20 Oh yeah, dating multiple people at the same time is a strange topic. I am aware that the nature of modern dating, especially with the online component, means that one should go a "multi pronged approach"...but I just can't. As soon as there is the slightest idea of romantic intentions, it feels fundamentally wrong not to focus on that person.

[@Owl8511]

The way you said "I got hit by a car" was soooo casual it really got me😂

[@helge.]

Don’t know what you are going through, but I have a mental illness, what means depressions, ptsd, panic attacks. I live in Berlin. Feel free, feel yourself, be what you are, have a good life!

[@Steven91637]

Greetings from Cologne Germany 🇩🇪 😊

[@Xhanatos]

Good to see you again. Your instagram link is not working btw

[@omarbenrahi]

I like your content

[@BaluDerBaer933]

Vor allen Dingen vermissen wir DICH!!! ;-)

[@andrehege-du4iq]

Go back to Germany, organise your life and let your dogs come after you. Don't waste your time, follow your heart❣ Life is to short. My advice as an older person.✌😉

[@Acerdorer]

Komm doch mal wieder zu Besuch! LG aus HAMBURG! 😉😁

[@bigshow83]

I just repeat what all the others said before: come back. Hamburg is missing you too ;) All the best wishes aus deiner Perle ☺️

[@darirolxarniic6319]

welcome back to the internet. didnt you change the channel name at some point?

[@Peter_Cetera]

I missed you, gorgeous

[@rockda]

Happy New Year. Welcome in 2024 🥳🍾🎉

[@tommay6590]

Ah, so you activated the comments, thx a lot! So now I can demand that you make a dog video next time🤓 was not nice to keep that a secret 🧐 we love 🐶. ( Don’t complain you brought it up yourself 😂)

[@GooberGoofy-lj5yd]

Well I am around your age, I am German and I think you are right, if you want to get to know a person it is way nicer to dedicate yourself to that, not giving 10 people 10% of your attention each. Although I can't really talk about dating today, cause I haven't been dating anyone since 2016/2017. Had a shitty break up and thought to myself, I'm gonna take care of myself and my mental struggles before I date again. Has taken quite a bit longer than I expected. I will try dating again, quite soon actually, at which point I will be able to testify to the truthfulness of my statement regarding modern dating.

[@michaelrichardson6569]

You should speak German to your dogs. 😀 While you probably won't get a response from your puppies in German, it might help you retain your language skills...? And you can tell them anything you want with out most people knowing what you are saying. BTW: You might like talking with FelifromGermany. She has a channel on KZbin as well, and she has sort of the opposite side... She and her boyfriend live in Cincinnati, OH, but Feli is from Munich, Germany and he is American. You could probably compare first time experiences, culture shocks and reverse culture shocks... and even discuss how your relationship to you boyfriends are opposite as well. I actually discovered your channel today from listening to one of her videos... where this video was a recommendation in the "you might also like" category. She ends her videos with Tschuss.. which I always thought sounded like "Cheers" as an American. 🙂

[@Andreas-Lau]

Happy to see you again! Warm greetings from HAMBURG! To be frank ... You belong to Germany. Hamburg is the place you belong. Find a job in Hamburg, get your dogs vaccinated, move to Hamburg, be happy for the rest of your life. And you know it. Sounds easy, is easy, the barriers are in your head... I know it, because I used to life and work as a German in Atlanta for nearly 8 years. Best wishes!!!

[@NoNeedTo...]

Welcome back. 🎉 First release the video about the 10 things you don’t like about Germany and then….. lean back to ponder the thought of returning here. And if it’s not Germany then maybe France, Austria, Czech Republic, all of them only a stone's throw away… from an American point of view.

[@creep3007]

Just come back, we would all be happy😅. You can bring your dogs with you 😊.

[@robp3431]

You can always say Tschüss....the reaction(s) may be cool. So many English words used by Germans, but very few German words used by English....you can start a trend 🙂 And, I'm sure you will make it back, if you miss Germany enough. There will always be a dog(s) sitter available or maybe new mode of transport where we can travel freely with our pets.

[@Rusty_James]

wild.. the norm to date multiple ppl at the same time over there..! 🤯

[@Stolens87]

Question: Do you want the comments in English or German? I try it with German but let us know! Hey, wie schön, dass mir mal wieder ein Video von Dir in die timeline gespült wurde. Hoffe du kommst noch mal wieder zurück, Hunde fühlen sich auch hier sehr wohl! Dating ist generell schwierig... aber ich noch nicht einen Dating coache gesehen, der mir geholfen hätte. Die Tipps sind meistens respektlos gegenüber Frauen und auch wenn es vielleicht manchmal funktioniert, will ich das nicht.

[@iuciubbb]

Wenn ich dich mal fragen darf: Sind Kuscheltreffen was für dich? Es ist sehr positiv fürs Selbstwertgefühl, unverbindliche Zärtlichkeiten mit anderen Leuten auszutauschen.

[@Steven91637]

Take your Dogs with you to Germany 🇩🇪

[@marluebb]

Why you don´t come back to germany? Greetings from Oldenburg - Osternburg🙂

[@hajosalz1621]

I've seen lots of your yt vids since b4 ur car accident... Come back please! As a "Hamburger" myself (Ich bin n Hamburger Jung und ich komm voll in Schwung, wenn ich hüpf' und spring' und von Hamburch sing!) I feel, you belong here! Franzbrötchen is waiting for you... :-D

[@Gaindalf93]

Ah man she called Kassel a small town 😩 it has a population of 200 thousand people is it really that small 😭

[@leonardgrant6876]

You should go back to Germany it is hard to find new friends.

[@ChrisJohnsonChannel]

I moved from Texas to a village by Wetheim Germany with my parents for 3 years. I was 15 or 16..my dad worked on an U.S. Army base there.. we traveled extensively: London, Paris, Amsterdsm, Florence, Zermatt, when we moved back I got kinda depressed.. no more Europe, nomore culture, nomore Medieval buildings and histor..back to East Texas..

[@facemushroom]

Diese madchen ist sehr schoen. Prost! Dankeschone tschuss! Kann man heir betweshe lien? ...and that's the extent of my German. (Ich whone in der neare des walders!)

[@dschoas]

While watching your video, I have the feeling, that you feel allone, and miss your social contacts you had in Germany. Something you need to realize to improve your mental stability.

[@Nikioko]

Nice that you lived in my home city for 2 years. Not nice that you were hit by a car, though.

[@davidbrandie6410]

is it the little moustaches you miss ?

[@kaiheffner441]

Dear Lamblike, I´ve missed you and Germany has lost a good person. I think you should return.

[@Steven91637]

Maybe you need to consider to go back to Germany 🇩🇪?

[@dennismundt7378]

If you like Germany, then come back. Have you thought about training to become an air traffic controller in Germany? "DSF Deutsche Flugsicherung" is still looking for people to train as air traffic controllers. You speak German and English. Just as a tip.

[@soggy_popcorn]

The maximum age to become an air traffic controller is 24

[@dennismundt7378]

@@soggy_popcorn It was just a suggestion of what she should look like. I don't know how old she is. She can try it out and apply. She has nothing to lose and a lot to gain. In Germany, there was the coronavirus and the lockdown. There is an acute shortage of skilled workers in Germany, and age doesn't matter. And if she applies for a job in Germany as a foreigner from a friendly country, she shouldn't be discriminated against. And her mother tongue is English, which will also open many doors for her in Germany with international companies where English is spoken. Her 4 years of experience in Germany are worth a bonus. Perhaps she still has good contacts in Germany that will make it easier for her to get started. She should do something that has to do with airports, airplanes, international handling of cargo planes in the commercial sector and international logistics, where a lot of English is spoken. She should just give it a try if she wants to live in Germany again.

[@Asgar1205]

Worst job ever
