A DAY IN GERMANY'S ROMANTIC & PICTURESQUE BLACK FOREST

[@gail-elizabethengland7853]

Thank you for giving us this gift! My mother was born in Germany but moved to the US in 1928. Her whole life she would say that her heart's desire was to go back to Germany before she died. In 2000 I gave her her dream and took her on vacation. One of the places we visited was the Black Forest. This video reminds me of the wonderful time we had there and brings back memories of that trip. My mother never stopped talking about our trip to Germany and the joy it brought her. She died in 2011. Blessings to you and Joerg!

[@katiemartell2471]

So wonderful if you to make her dream come true!

[@antidemman847]

She's in another world and we will see that world someday! The Kybalion 🤔

[@ElijahElijah-rk2rw]

What a wonderful story. Thanks for sharing

[@juliairwin4481]

How nice of you to do this for your mother.

[@CaponeCabin]

Ok....the scene is set. Joerg and Kirsten's fairytale romantic story. The most delightful, charming and fabulous couple you can ever possibly share adventures with. The destinations they take you to are always well thought out, picturesque and informative......not to mention Joerg's captivating photography along with Kirsten's charming commentary ❤ Thank you for sharing Germany with us!

[@ishouldbesleeping1354]

Indeed!

[@ellyross7082]

Hi Kirsten and Joerg 👋 What a beautifully charming region. So nice you both have wonderful memories of the area. My parents had a country place in the Laurentian mountains, north of Montreal. A lot of it was settled by Austrians and Germans who loved the mountains and Lakes and skiing. A lot of A frame homes. We lived right on a tiny lake (no motor boats!) But it has become, I think, too modernized, much to my chagrin. It's so wonderful to see how so many regions have been preserved in Germany and in England. So smart. Another well done, exquisite masterpiece. Thx 💙 so much for sharing, you two. Till next time, much love and appreciation. Elly 🇨🇦

[@ShelleyAnderson-g9g]

Both the buildings and countryside are so beautiful.

[@andunea3744]

I just love listening to your soothing voices. You two seem to be so in tune to one another. True love and compatibility are a wonder and joy to behold. Please know without a doubt that you both are admired and loved. I’m privileged to be one of your subscribers. Thankyou so very much for your hard work and dedication. Blessings from just a grandma in Texas 🇺🇸🥰

[@missnicolemacy]

It's so beautiful, I can't believe places like this exist.

[@KirstenJoerg]

It's so special!

[@rmp7400]

I cannot accept that so many beautiful mystical places on earth were destroyed!!!

[@hildahilpert5018]

Oh they do. I have relatives who are hereditary foresters in the Schwarzwald(Black forest in English.) my dad was Us Airforce, but we never got transfered there. Would have liked to have met relatives there and in Garmisch. He was able in the late 1950s to do a TDY to England and Germany . Unfortunately when in Germany, he didn't have time to go to Nuremberg, to see the family history book kept by family. Glad and happy you are bringing such wonderful places to us.

[@barbarasnellstromsnellstro5258]

Truly gorgeous, the Black Forest,it's where I come from.Its hard to watch this video because it is my homeland and I get so homesick. Thank you for taking me home for a short trip.

[@JuliettaLia86]

I actually live in the Black Forest. It's nice to see my home through the eyes of someone else. It makes me appreciate more where I live. I used to go on vacation to the UK almost every year before the pandemic. I really like your videos.

[@britz3864]

Many thanks again for taking me on that wonderfully, magical journey. It has been very many years since I visited there. I also was born in Germany and moved to England and now live in Canada. Being in my 70's now, I return and joyfully travel, vicariously, to my home countries, through your adventures. I can't thank you enough. Love to you both....Brigitte

[@sabrinawalker8800]

Hello from the states. Germany looks absolutely beautiful. The Black Forest looks like a fairytale. So beautiful. Thank you for sharing your trip with us. Safe travels.

[@steemlenn8797]

If you like old charming houses, the Harz area is a good place too, like Wernigerode. Personally I live in a small town where a house doesn't count as old if it hasn't at least 200 years on it. This always shocks US people ;)

[@kellyb1420]

Thanks!

[@marshawilliamson8602]

New Saturday morning tradition in our household: we watch Kirsten & Joerg! Thank you. You go places we may never see in real life and we are so very grateful.

[@annebalderston2520]

The animals are so sweet.❤️

[@rebeccaboehret4870]

A fairytale! It looks like the air is good to breathe in!

[@gnostic268]

The Black Forest looks wonderful with all the farms and historic homes. Thank you so much for sharing your sightseeing adventures ☺️

It's so stunning, isn't it?!

[@KirstenJoerg]

Thanks so much!

[@tetianaiana6152]

Joerg looks absolutely happy in this amazing place and Kirsten is as well. Wonderful trip.

[@ayseberry7494]

So Pretty. Imagine it at Christmas time. It would look like a fairy tale Christmas, I think.

[@janis6363]

The village is so well cared for. Flowers all around and in window boxes make it so picturesque. So much history. The owners of properties must receive help for upkeep and flower maintenance. Not one house is in tatters or even near it. The black forest cake, oh my. What can I say, your native country has been a joy to visit with you. Thanks so much, Kirsten and Joerg.😊💕👋🏼

[@theluckyblackbird]

it's an open air museum. it's really fantastic

[@risalangdon9883]

I am in the US, but many years ago now, (late 70's & early 80's) one of my brothers that had joined the US Army ended up stationed in Germany for 3 years. To this day, his favorite desserts are German chocolate cake & Black forest cake lol. He always remarked on the architecture that he had seen there.

[@jenniferbonynge5899]

My favorite childhood book was "Heidi". These cottages so remind me of it! Charming and beautiful...Thanks for taking me there. XO

[@karenbrindley7170]

Delightful video. Now I want to go to the black forest and have a slice of cake.

[@cindyrasley627]

It’s my all-time most most favorite place! I have always dreamed and envisioned going to the black forest in Germany and you are so very blessed to be able to be a part of that and thank you so much for bringing it to us!👍💯❤️💯❤️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ absolutely spectacular!👌

If only you could imagine the joy you two and your videos bring into these cold and grey November days in Finland!

Germany is a beautiful place - I was there many years ago - would love to go back and see it again. Thank you so much Kirsten and Joerg.

Been many times to Germany but I've never been to the Black Forest and this video definitely makes me want to go there, it looks amazing.

[@EuroKitty33]

You know that both of you have a wonderful outlook on life - I especially was struck by how grateful you are in everything you do. It comes across in such a lovely way. As always, thanks for sharing with us!!!

[@nualakirk9857]

You made me fall in love with Germany all over again. I went on holiday many years ago to the Black Forest with a boyfriend and had the most wonderful holiday, but only saw a small fraction of the area. In Northern Ireland they have many outside museums showing how people used to live, and also how they moved to America. I think you would find it interesting..

[@KirstenJoerg]

So glad you liked it!

[@lovelyskull3483]

Just like a fairytale or a dream. Thank you so much.

[@karunaratnegayendri4959]

You bring back our memories of visiting Germany with my mother in 2013. We visited Titisee too for cuckoo clocks. Some clock cottages had them on the outer wall ! The country roads leading to it were like a dream, living in a fairy story, so lovely and peaceful. Have no words to express this. We are inspired by the beauty of Germany, you must be humbly taking pride in it.

[@meganluck4352]

German craftsmanship is amazing and so durable. These cottages are so well built and beautiful.

[@toodlesoops7761]

Dear Ones! You cannot imagine the tears of great joy when I see your beautifully presented videos - please always know you are so beloved by the world!

Kirsten & Joerg. What a beautiful place. Would love to visit the Schwartzwald. We have a board chair with a heart ❤ cut in the back and a cuckoo cuckoo clock. As I said before one of my great grandfather s came from that region. I really love living history sites. Very educational. Dovie liked the goats. Have a safe trip. Cheers Ron & Dovie.

Thanks so much Ron & Dovie, have a nice weekend.

The Black Forest region is such a charming part of the world. It is very reminiscent of Switzerland, which I know is just south of the Black Forest. Thank you for another lovely trip to your homeland.

I have been so looking forward to seeing the Black Forest area. My grandparents visited a lot in the 1960s and had a very vocal cuckoo clock in their home which did keep me awake, haha. A very enjoyable video, stunning houses and scenery, and the animals looked very happy too!

Russian wooden houses always had the "beautiful corner" with an icon, a candle, setting on a small piece of fabric with red embroidery, perhaps. Red being the "beautiful" color.

The Schwarzwald is so very beautiful. I remember many beautiful streams and forests, gorgeous homes and pretty geraniums everywhere. I especially loved the little farms, where the animals lived on the first floor and the people lived above. So clean and refreshing. Thank you! 🌷💗🌷

[@rmp7400]

The forest indeed looks like the scene of the many Grimm Brothers tales that it inspired!!! The bark of the trees indeed appear as sable!!! And the moss growing is bright deep verdant hue - I remember earth looking reddish and, at autumn, a crystalline mist in the air!!! Then suddenly a little boy appeared from behind the trees with toy sword in hand: demanding to know who we - interlopers to "his kingdom" - were! Only one visit there 40 years ago - but vividly memorable. Gott segnet euch - alle!!!❤🙏🏼🎆

[@deloisgrant2445]

What a beautiful place, Kirsten and Joerg thank you so much, I throughly enjoyed it! I don’t know why but it reminded me of Alice in wonderland, maybe because of the name Black Forest! Have a safe trip back home.💕
