Originally from the Midwest of the USA, we moved to the #blackforest in 2013 and quickly embraced #expatlife. As American expats living in #Germany, things weren't always easy, but we've grown to love our life in Germany. We started this #travelvlog​ to share our experiences with friends and family, and to help those who are interested in moving overseas! Whether you are interested in moving abroad, working abroad, studying abroad, raising a family abroad, or just want to #traveleurope, we're here to give you a first person look at what lies ahead. 😊🎥🌎

It seems like the 3 of you really enjoyed yourselves at the Kulturbrauerei in Berlin. Thanks for taking us along.

[@TypeAshton]

Glad you enjoyed it as much as we enjoyed tasting all of the treats. It was a really fun experience.

[@Sw4lley]

The last food item clearly wasn't yummi from the looks of it, Jack wanted to save you from the pain of eating it and offered his assistance to make it go away entirely. What a caring son!

[@TypeAshton]

Hahaha. Exactly!

[@flostar81]

So good to see the three of you in my hometown. I hope you had a great time in the best city in the world ;-)

[@TypeAshton]

We had a blast. We have a few more videos coming of our time there that will debut over the next few weeks.

[@peterf1]

I really really enjoy the deep dives you guys do on any number of living in DE topics, but nice to see you explore the simple pleasures of life there as well. And yes, the Jack Score is completely valid!

[@carstenhelbig442]

Ashton, schön zu hören, das du "Berlin", ab und zu versucht hast, Akzentfrei auszusprechen und ist dir auch gut gelungen. Und Danke für den Tip, des Street Food Festival und der Kulturbrauerei. Das werd ich mir mal merken, wenn ich das nächste mal nach Berlin komme.

[@TypeAshton]

I kept slipping up. Its hard to shake the "American English" pronunciation of the city while also speaking American english in the rest of the sentence and trying to remember all of my talking points. 😆

[@Kater9277]

When I visited Marocco I absolutely LOVED the peppermint tea there. It's deathly sweet but that's exactly how I like it. Their whole tea culture is just really nice.

[@TypeAshton]

It really was SO lovely. Morocco is on our travel bucket list.

[@mrHello420__]

Really?? I drink my peppermint tea always without any sweetener

[@jpdj2715]

As long as we still understand that "tea' is an infusion from the (dried) leaves of a shrub called camellia sinensis. And that there are maybe 2 dozen mint species/varieties. I love the continental European, Moroccan, and Japanese variants, and loathe the "spearmint" variant.

[@V100-e5q]

Just like liquid cough drops.

Hello friends 🍻 Berlin is a city that should always be visited in summer, when there are so many street festivals, so many cultural events. Then life pulsates on the many streets and squares, the city itself is very green and guests do not have to drive long to find green oases. As I can see, you definitely had a very tasty, delicious stay in Berlin. The Kulturbrauerei is located in the area where I grew up. Kastanienallee, Oderberger Straße, Eberswalde Straße, Schönhauser Allee were my neighbourhood, my grandparents lived down Knaackstraße in Wörther Straße at Kollwitzplatz. The comparison from then to now is of course a huge difference in terms of changes, especially what kind of life takes place there on the streets. For other tips and tricks, just say something. Enjoy your Sunday 😜🤠

Berlin is nice to visit as a tourist but a shithole to live there especially when you have kids

[@nomirrors3552]

@@ravanpee1325 I would love to know your opinion on why having kids in Berlin is bad. (Also, are you a native?)

[@ravanpee1325]

@@nomirrors3552 Because Berlin has the lowest school standards and the lowest school performance indexes in Germany overall among the different states (school system is on the state and not the federal level). Also the bureaucratic administration is very bad e.g. the last election for the state house and the federal parliament will be new elected because of massiv problems with the voting process e.g. not enough voting ballots. You have to wait for months to get even your registration done. Also outside the Politics/Media/start-up bubble are not so many well paying jobs in comparison to other industrial regions e.g. Munich. Berlin is poor and you will notice it sooner or later.

[@nomirrors3552]

@@ravanpee1325 Thank you for the reply! 😊 My situation is that the only place in Germany I want to live *(and for my three kids)* is Berlin. If not Berlin, then I would pick another country.

Omg Morrocan-style mint tea is some of the best tea I’ve ever had! Mmmmm, so good! All of the other food you tried looks fantastic also!

[@TypeAshton]

IT IS SO GOOD.

[@NenadTrajkovic]

I have no doubt that the food was delicious, considering that the ingredients are mostly locally grown and that way the local growers are being helped. The other day I bought tomatoes from a local grower and I was surprised how intense the taste was... great video ,I am so hungry now 👍

The man about 9:00 said he was "zufrieden" and while there is the "peace" in that word - your translation - I would translate "zufrieden sein" with "be happy with", or "be pleased with", "be satisfied with". As I am not German - I may get corrected. In my native, also Germanic, language, we would say that everything with "zu" before it (e.g. zu viele), is bad, except "zufrieden".

[@Henning_Rech]

"zu" as a part of a word means "towards". "zu" as a separate word before an adjective is like the english "too". There are more meanings of "zu". "zufrieden" is something that leads towards (your mood of) peace.

[@mummamarsh1180]

Gday BFF, lovely to see you guys in Berlin and enjoying the international food truck event. Little Jack has a healthy appetite. Good to see ! Here in Victoria Australia, food truck events are also very popular, happening at monthly markets, agricultural shows etc. my workplace even arranged for a variety of food trucks for our end of year Christmas party. So very much a thing here too especially with Melbourne being very multicultural. These types of events really enhance the tourists experience in a relaxed and outdoor environment, just mingling with the locals. Love it! Thank you so much for sharing a another culinary experience in Germany. ❤😋😋

[@TypeAshton]

We had SUCH a fun time and it really surprised us at how much Jack ate 😂 Although I wish we would have gotten a video "after" he ate that dessert. We normally don't feed him sugar, but this was a fun vacation experience. The sugar high he was riding on the u-bahn on the ride back to our hotel was hilarious.

[@Americanmapping44]

I havent been to berlin since 2007 it was around this time of year oct-nov so beautiful and cool nice weather. The food looked delicious. I'd love to try Uzbeki food and I love mint tea; would have loved to seen some Moroccan food as well.

[@NKA23]

About the peppermint tea: Traditionally it gets served with a lot of sugar in most northern African and middle eastern countries. Of course you can chose to not have sugar in it, but originally it's meant to have a lot of sugar in it.

[@Francesco_M.]

The black forest family at their best! 🌮🍨 👌 Jack's ratings were on point to say the least, he's a cutie! 👶🏻 Loved to see you all happy; you know, as we all are aware of the fact that a family doesn't always enjoy good health and receive a fair share of blissfulness, it is just reinvigorating to see you guys satisfied with your northwestern trip in Berlin. I can only wish a lot of joy to befall you still 🌝 😊

[@TypeAshton]

Awe thank you so much. We had a really nice long weekend in the city and enjoyed all of the new sights. And Jack REALLY enjoyed all of the riding we did on trams, trains, s-bahns and u-bahns in the city. ❤️❤️

[@V100-e5q]

That's the big advantage of a major city: all the diversity. It transpires well how you enjoyed that.

[@anisaromano5352]

At first it seemed weird how in awe of this you are, but then I realized you probably left the US right around when food trucks were rising in popularity (moving beyond the roach coaches selling junk food and coffee). That festival probably attracts a lot of expats who come for food from "home" and to meet other people from their home countries, but it's great to expose people to new foods too.

[@BaluDerBaer933]

Super, willkommen bei uns in der Reichshauptstadt! ;-)

[@PalmyraSchwarz]

The nice thing about the food trucks is that you not only get the food that you can order at every stand anyway, but also dishes from countries that are rather unknown in our latitudes.

[@mukavelli]

The food trucks in Berlin have nothing to do with the food truck culture from the states, where the food is not only delicious made by immigrants but also filling (big portions). What you find in Berlin is just overpriced, overhyped hippie cuisine. There are many pretentious things with no essence here, restaurants, clubs, cafés, but at least for most of them you can find decent alternatives, food trucks are not among them, unfortunately.

[@michaelmedlinger6399]

Berlin ist immer eine Reise wert!

[@ralfherweg7832]

That`s an really exciting place, which is more than could be said for Schultheiss beer. 😉

[@johncrisp6683]

How we remember visiting places like this and France on weekends! Salsa is very hard to find. We used to get visitors bring it. However, that was 30 years ago. Try communities close to USA bases. How Berlin has changes since our first visit in 1987!

[@pseudo_nym]

Great you found and enjoyed that place!!! 👍🏼 The variety and quality of food there is amazing. Loved to go there when I lived in Berlin.

[@SarimDeLaurec]

I just ate but now I crave that street food. Finding actually spicy food in Germany is not easy. That's why I grow my own habaneros and use them to make Ajika. For pre made sauces you pretty much only have online shops to improt the good stuff (like "The Last Dab XXX", very hot, but somehow it doesn't shred ones insides :D ).

[@chrisb2942]

[@TypeAshton]

We will still do a second food video in a couple of weeks that is meant to kind of be a "history of Berlin as told via food". We wanted to cover both traditional Berlin regional dishes, but also all of the different waves of immigrants, the fall of the Berlin wall, and other events that have shaped the city into the multicultural hotspot it is today.

I always make my own salsa - here's how you do it: Ingredients 400g tomatoes, halved 1 red onion, cut in quarters 1/2 bulb of garlic chillies and/or a bell pepper, depending on your taste - I recommend some jalapeños, habanero and 2-3 dried ancho chillies 1 tblsp sugar 1 tblsp salt juice of two limes 25g fresh coriander or parsley 1 tblsp sherry vinegar 20 ml tequila Preheat an oven to about 180°C Put the halved tomatoes on a backing sheet. Mix the salt and sugar and sprinkle it over the tomatoes. Then add the peppers (apart from the dried chillies), onion and garlic and put the sheet in an oven for about 45 minutes. Let the garlic, onion and peppers get some color, but don't let them burn. Remove if necessary. Meanwhile, lightly toast the dried chillies in a pan and let them soak in a bowl of warm water for about 30 minutes. When the vegetables are cooked, let them cool down. Squeeze the flesh out of the roasted garlic and put it into a blender. Add the rest of the ingredients and blend. If the salsa is too thick, you can add some of the reserved chillie water. It's basically a version of "pico de gallo", although the original doesn't use bell peppers.

Berlin is a great city, having lived there for some years. The biggest mistake visitors from abroad can do is assuming the rest of Germany would be somehow like Berlin...as it is totally not, even though it is our capitol. On a second note, kudos for pronouncing Berlin as "Berlin" and not "Börlin"...you're getting Germanized little by little ;D

[@TypeAshton]

Berlin was totally different from other cities we have visited in Germany. We did, however, on a couple occasions, remark that it reminded us in some ways of New York. Not necessarily with the architecture, but the energy felt similar.

[@frank5668]

Are you looking for spicy and hot sauce? Try Hot Mamas. These offer a wide range of all flavors and were founded in a small kitchen in Pforzheim in the northern Black Forest. With up to 70,000 Scoville, it is also known as the "hottest" employer in Baden-Württemberg ;-)

In the summer we normaly celebrate the Karneval der Kulturen(carneval of cultures). Where you can meet nearly every culture living in berlin. This year it was canceled, still because of corona. Kulturbrauerei is around the corner where i was living for 12 years. We call the district Prenzlberg(originally Prenzlauer Berg). Konnopke you can also find there (One of the most know places for Currywurst, another would be Curry 36 in the west of Berlin). We don't say west or east berlin anymore. It's just berlin, but you can use the wind direction to descibe the location of a place. There are a lot of nice cafes too. Where you can sit outside and enjoy your coffee. And it's not far away from the Knofel. A restaurant that is specified on garlic dishes.(If you like garlic) Like most berlin natives i left prenzlberg to a neighbor district. I was the last one of my family and friend circle. It's too expensive for living now. You will mostly find tourists and people who changed there from other german states. So it might be rare that you hear berlin dialect there, especially in compare to other districts. As example: the place where "KiK"(clothing discounter, jeans for 10€) was located is now "fast forward". A very expensive shop where jeans start at 100€ .

The best mexican food I have found in Berlin is being sold from a stall in a supermarket parking lot far away from the city centre.
