FIRST IMPRESSIONS OF MUNICH, GERMANY

[@grandmamichelle6753]

When I was in Europe, I usually went to a bakery, got a small loaf of bread, went to the butcher and got some hard salami that doesn’t need refrigeration, and got some cheese. Snack or lunch, it was good. Saved a lot of money, and it worked wherever I was - France, Belgium, or Germany.

[@JimmyandNatalie]

That's smart, and sounds delicious! We've been doing that too, but at supermarkets and it's saved us some money already! 😄

[@jonbarnard7186]

My wife and I lived on that in Paris. We also carried a couple of those little airline sized wine bottles which we would fill up before we left our BnB. Their whole grain bread was fabulous and cheese and ham was quite affordable. Only problem was I had to carry a knife of some sort to cut the bread and I kept getting it confiscated when I went in a museum or gallery. But I eventually got smart and began hiding it in a nearby garden.

[@grandmamichelle6753]

@@JimmyandNatalie I hope you can find some small shops for your supplies. Meeting people in a small shop is a great experience. You would be surprised how far pointing at something and asking “wie viel kostet es” can go.

[@veeemit9719]

If you are still in Munich, Dachau (concentration camp) is about 19 miles north, and it was a very humbling thing to experience.

[@maxbarko8717]

You missed a lot of good food. When I travel, I am never cheap as it is a once in a lifetime experience.

[@robbycalhoun2342]

While in the USAF we spent 3 years in Germany. By far our best assignment. You need to treat yourself to a Jaegerschnitzel dinner. The bakeries in Germany are outstanding as well as in Innsbruck if you go to Austria. Do forget to visit some of the old castles throughout Germany. If you have tome go to Garmisch-Partenkirchen. Enjoy .

[@Jillybean620]

I’ll second that!!

[@samuelsamenstrang6069]

me too@@Jillybean620

[@m4tti.87]

Thanks for your service for both our countries Sir :) Bets regards from Germany

[@omaruth]

I was born in Munich Germany and watching you showing how it looks now was very emotional, I was born there in 1957. Thanks for filming all you did in Munich ❤

[@niknaiman5359]

I have never related to Natalie as much as when she was holding her giant pretzel and giant beer and said "I've never been so happy" followed by "this is my favorite day". What a fun video with a perfect ending.

[@ginap4386]

I visited Munich back in 2019 when my friend and I did a girls' Europe trip. By far, the cleanest city I've ever been to and the people were fabulous.

[@debbiehenderson4515]

In 1966 my father was stationed in Munich and my mother was pregnant and gave birth to me. I haven't been back since i was a child, so i thank yu with all my heart for showing me a piece of my birth place. ❤

[@Travel_with_Trooper]

Thanks!

[@alaskanight940]

Thanks! Really enjoying the street views of places I have never seen, tower was awesome. Here's to giant pretzels and beers. Next ones are on me. Călătorește cu rucsaci fericiți. 😊👍

[@jeanneprice6736]

Be sure to go that “mechanical” museum. There are great museums not to miss. And don’t forget the Glockenspiel. Take the train , from Munich, to Dauchau Concentration Camp. It is an emotional experience.

[@FreezyAbitKT7A]

put your hand through the handle on the Liter Mug (aka Maß pronounced Mahs). It is easier to hold.

[@davidevans3175]

I can't tell you how much joy I get from watching you two and your journeys.

[@sharonoldham4374]

Beautiful city. Enjoyed touring with you. Wish I could be there.

[@LAdair-td9ih]

This is the first video of yours I have watched and it won't be the last! You guys are adorable. I love your pace and enthusiasm and the mix of food, strolling, sightseeing, and history.

[@Jillybean620]

Amazing. Brings back lots of memories. Was stationed in Germany twice during my military career and loved it there. Glad you’re having fun.

[@CaptainF68]

Maybe here in Ansbach? We have a big garrison. 😎

[@jtdo1622]

Beautiful country!!! I loved visiting Germany when I was younger! Enjoy and thanks for sharing with us!!

[@harrisonchevy4452]

Two of my favorite people in Munich, wonderful tour, thanks 🙏 so much. Look forward to next video.

[@tommoraga8318]

I was in Munich in 1968. Wow, what a difference in 55 years!! Enjoy your travels 😀

[@SharaBinghamMills]

Oh yeah, the architecture is much nicer in this video. Now it looks like we are on vacation. You guys have so much energy. It's fun to watch.

[@JimmyandNatalie]

Aw, thank you!! We’re really having SO much fun exploring Europe, thanks for coming along with us! 💚😄

[@johnstuart8511]

Lekker video: Thank you for showing us around. Germany sure looks great. Loving the old buildings. And the eats (Say no more). Regards

[@erik_ludwig]

Huge pretzels! PS- Hofbrauhaus has several beer gardens in the US.

[@MaddogCapt11]

That was a great shot of Natalie with the pretzel and dunkel bier. Natalie didn't have to say she was happy; I could see it in her smile. Dunkel is my favorite, too; and Hofbräuhaus is my favorite brew house in Munich. Pro-tip: you can only order the liter mugs after 6 PM, no half-liters. Check out some of the other Oktoberfest Breweries in Munich. I think there are six.

[@philvale5724]

Hi 👋, Amazing architecture, I haven’t been to Germany for quite a few years, enjoy, Phil from the moulin France.

[@tomahawk4138]

I was in Europe with my wife at the beginning of this year , and was amazing trip, we enjoyed it so much, and we travel by bus a lot, from contry to another, and for I tell you the truth we want to go back again , especially to Germany.

[@BobBohner4851]

This is how I travel these days. Thank you sooooo very much. Love you both.

[@jimhoeppner7737]

Nice to see you enjoying yourselves so enthusiastically.

[@amye4087]

you guys look like you are getting more comfortable being on camera especially Jimmy. Glad to see you out enjoying yourselves.

[@allisonhurst724]

When I saw y’all had posted I thought no way! But yes way!! And it was a really good video! I love to see Natalie that happy even if it’s a HUGE beer and a HUGE pretzel lol❤️❤️

[@JimmyandNatalie]

Haha glad you liked the surprise! 😄 And yes that might have been the best day we’ve had yet! Lol 😄🍻

[@CraftsandMorewithDonnaJackson]

Natalie you're so funny. All it took was beer and a pretzel lol. Glad you're touring fun places too. Thanks for taking us along.❤

[@debraporter1797]

OMG. Look at that town hall building wow. The churches in Europe are so big and beautiful. Ceilings....very nice. Those HUGE beers and pretzels . I don't think I could finish either one of them. Thanks for sharing.

[@JimmyandNatalie]

We couldn't agree more! The buildings and churches here look so incredible! 😄 And you're right about the pretzels! We could barely finish them and they even ended up being our dinner! 😅

[@onmission316]

Beer and pretzels in Germany are now on my bucket list.

[@BretSnyder]

Really good job on your video editing. Thanks for sharing with us. Wish I was able to walk all those stairs like you.

[@brucerowley5484]

You two are having a great time. You brought back many of my own memories of living and traveling in Europe. Enjoy the ride!!😊

[@_JoyceArt]

Apfelschnecken literally translates to apple snails, probably because it’s rolled up like that. I’ve been a few times in Bavaria, but never to Munich. Whenever I’m in a public building like that, I live by the rule that as long as there isn’t a locked door, I’m probably allowed to be there. 😅 You’re probably no longer in that area/have already made your itinerary, but 129 km north of Munich is Nuremberg, also a very interesting city. I live 5 minutes from the German border, so I regularly get my groceries there, and whenever I do, I buy a pretzel to snack on, on my way back home.

[@murti1565]

Travel tip: avoid those ATMs that say CASH or Eurostar, Volksbank Reifeisenbank, or have something in English. they usually take high fees. Use ATMs from Sparkasse, Commerce Bank, Deutsche Bank, Postbank or ING. Most ATMs have a little sticker that tells you what card comes with what fees. For example, the Hamburger Sparkasse takes 5 Euros for non-member master cards but no fees for Visa and Maestro/EC so you only end up paying your own bank's conversion rate.

[@vnabhi]

Lovely video. My wife and I returned to India a couple of months ago after spending 3 months with our son in Munich. It is a lovely place, and we've visited all those places quite a few times. I wish you had walked down to Karlzplatz---it is less than a mile from Marienplatz.

[@banditone7896]

Giant beer and giant pretzel in hand - "This is my favorite day". Yep, she's a keeper!

[@dianesisneros8811]

Very interesting and not only are you sharing all this information with us but you will have a verbal diary of the places you visited and you will not forget those facts that you would forget later. I’m having fun even though, at my age I would not want to go. I get to go along with you!😀🥰

[@mildredlackey1938]

Our trip to Europe was great, we spent a month there, we stayed at military bases , Try to see the Neuschwanstein Castel ,, we took the Tran to the top of a beautiful mountain Pilatus in Switzerland , went to the top and had lunch, the ride up the mountain was just wonderful , The Eagles Nest is so much worth seeing, we took a crunch down the beautiful Rhine River, ,Berchtesgaden, it’s all so much fun and like I said before , the Beer and food is great, I just thought I would throw in a few places we enjoyed so much there, 🤗👍

[@JimmyandNatalie]

Oh wow that sounds like an amazing trip! 😄 We’ve seen the Neuschwanstein Castle once on a previous trip but haven’t done any of the others you mentioned! We’ll have to try those next time! 💚

[@theadventuresofallenandtheresa]

Be sure and check out the walled towns south of frankfurt

[@nihatbahadir]

💙🤍 its always a pleasure to see how visitors see my home town, thank you for visiting and sharing with the world 💙🤍

[@ShellysNest]

It must be amazing to see all that artwork in person! Especially knowing it's older than the USA. Thanks for the extra video. You got some amazing shots! It's fun to watch the puzzled look on people's faces when they pass behind Natalie wondering what y'all are doing😂🤣 We can't believe you compared Natalie to the Devil, even if it was just a shoe size😈👟😍🐢

[@Mister_G_Point6969]

as a "Munich Child" i call myself born in that wonderful Town in 1982...good old memories thx you guys very much

[@JohnT.4321]

My wife was stationed at Hanau for the Army, and she went to visit Munich during the Oktoberfest. And she loved it. Your video brought back a lot of memories for her. Have fun you two and enjoy Munich.

[@BrokenArrow24]

I live in Munich and this is fun to watch!

[@janetstegiel2769]

So fun to watch. Haven’t been to Munich in years but my favorite place was the Beer Garden and Beer museum. Thanks for taking us along❤️

[@MonteCristo776]

So nice to see you in Europe! I hope Austria is on your GoTo List! 🙂 Innsbruck, Salzburg and Vienna are very nice cities to visit! Greetings from Austria! 👋😁

[@KaySan666]

Just a little clarification. the Eisbachwelle definitely isn't put there for the surfers on purpose. Its just the spot where the underground spot reaches the surface again and to prevent it from eroding the canal floor, they put a ledge there that creates this continuous standing wave.

[@Iam1869]

like being on vacation with you two...awesome...safe travels

[@Jillybean620]

Hoping you got to enjoy Volksmarches in Germany. Great hikes/easy walks through small villages/towns and their countrysides. Super cheap and happen every weekend all over. Usually end at a town hall with refreshments. Such a great way to see the country and its communities.

[@JulitoPTalay]

Guten morgen we been there last July to August on a trip to Munich it's a nice place

[@MrMucera]

You're a very cute couple. All the best and keep travelling and seeing the world.

[@zackfair6203]

As someone who was born in munich and living there ever since i am always so curious what tourists think of my city when they are visiting.

[@LAdair-td9ih]

We just moved to Germany from the US. Once we get a house we will start exploring. I can't wait! I am wondering if you guys live here or if you are visiting.

[@Easternoregon1]

Love watching you two. I am sure your planning on it but you have to go to Neuschwanstein castle. I got to visit it on one of my trips to Europe. The castle that inspired Disney.

[@Freakazoid12345]

Jimmy, I'm jealous of you in every way possible. I grew up in Germany as a kid and have been trying to make it back for the last 25 years.

[@yolandaazua8919]

Love it... yeah, I noticed you had a skip in your walk for the 3-story beer house... thank you for taking ne along...

[@Johnny.D]

I went to the hofbrauhaus in 2003. What a great time, I think.......... Enjoy your time there.

[@carmenmarcinkiewicz7149]

Did you see the Glockenspiel working??? It's a fabulous thing to see....

[@stefanw.5200]

THANK YOU for your loving report about Munich/Bavaria ❤❤ It's really nice to see that you enjoyed your stay with us so much. 👍👍 your German is fabulous *Apfelschnecke* *danke* *Rathaus* *lecker* *Eisbachwelle* 😀😅 I watch YT videos from the USA to improve my understanding of English. First thing I learned, how friendly and personable Americans can be 😊🤩 You made me very happy with your video. Kind regards from Nuremberg/Germany 🍺🍺

[@davidevans8611]

Thanks for the tour, one of the best one's I've seen. You two look as if you are having a most excellent time! Only one litre of dark brew for me...........

[@maddie4077]

Did you go see the Glockenspiel? I was at Oktoberfest in 1987 and it was a blast. Loved those pretzels.

[@nancyschad2969]

This video brought back memories for me when I visited my bonus daughter in Munich. I had the big beer and pretzel too.

[@terencelarkin5959]

With my Android, I'm able zoom in while watching pretty cool. I just discovered this while you were eating the pretzels.

[@Wonzling0815]

I went on vacation to Bavaria a few months back but was very unlucky, because Munich was closed for repairs.

[@Fi87]

What a great video! I live in Munich and love to see, that you had a wonderful time in my city! 😊

[@TrixityMcLight]

Heh, Sweet Spot is absolutely one of the best spots to go to for great coffee :)

[@mathephysikutz2961]

Great selection of highlights! Apart from the Hofbäuhaus. Almost no local goes there - unless you have visitors from abroad.

[@pvdogs2]

Glad to hear you're enjoying your travels through Germany. Have you seen any videos or photos of the thunder storms and severe flooding that hit Frankfurt on Aug 16th? Passengers were stranded at the airport which was shut down. Some 90 flights were cancelled. Looks like you just missed it.

[@tammycruz8189]

Thanks for sharing this journey with me. Safe Travels Always, God Bless Y'all... Mucho Love From Your Friend In Michigan Tam 💜💜

[@JimmyandNatalie]

Thanks so much for watching Tam!! 💚

[@grant2584]

You two are killing it 😂. So great to see you having so much fun. Every hotel room, Natalie has to fly onto the bed. Cheers

[@willemijnkamerling4011]

Just a girl on a mission to get beer! 😂 I've been binge watching the last ten videos or so. Had some catching up to do. I'm loving the Europe series already. It looks like you guys are having a blast. Looking forward to seeing what you get up to in the Netherlands. That's were I'm from 😊

[@StephanBieker]

It's nice to watch you had fun in this wonderful city.

[@banzaipinball]

Looks like you are having a great time. So reminds me of our adventures in European cities

[@JimmyandNatalie]

We have been loving Europe so far!! 😄

[@DannyA3579]

The beer / pretzels alone are worth the trip... Continued safe travels.

[@waltbischoff3819]

Hi Jimmie & Natalie I've been in Germany during my Navy days and loved it. Make sure you sample the ice cream, it's so tasty and very different.. Question maybe you can answer sometime, do you ever have issues using your credit or debit catds? I know here if you visit another state, I sometimes get bank declines. Just curious on overseas adventurers. Love your travels, keep the coming. Take care of each other, you guys are super.😊😊

[@moritz7967]

I was born and raised in munich and i think its funny to watch

Sometimes there's a blind surfer at the Eisbachwelle. He has an ear plug and someone telling him where to go and when to jump for the wave.

Thanks Samy!! We’re happy to have the chance! 😄💚

Do you remember the name of the falafel/schwarma place near the Rathaus? I am doing research for my upcoming trip. Your video was very helpful. Thank you!!

[@JimmyandNatalie]

Sure thing! I believe it was called Ali’s Superfood!

[@thegreatrandini]

Thank you!!

How fun! That BIG beer.....whew....EXTRA FUN!

[@sherriloneil2648]

Your videos are so cool. I really like this one. All the views from St. Peter church. The food sounds yummy. Enjoyed you trip and stay safe

[@Outfun]

I am having so much fun on your trip. Thanks for taking me a long.

[@Oberarm]

too bad that you havent have clear sky on the "alter peter" cause you can have a super nice view to the alps on a sunny day. But if you are going back to germany, you really have to check out Regensburg, it's called the northern venice

[@ich_halt8094]

I am happy that you guys enjoyed your visit to my hometown. But for breakfast you should have tried Weißwürste. Which is a typical bavarian breakfast. And yes, we do drink beer (especially Weißbier) with it. And for Lunch I would have recommended a Leberkässemmel. You can get them in every butchery and the normally cost between 2-3 Euros

[@MagnificentGermanywithDarion]

I ran across this video and I loved it. It was a lot of fun watching you both explore the city. I love to visit Munich as often as possible. BTW, I have just subscribed so that I can catch more of your vlogs. :).

[@charlottealdridge1496]

Have fun Jimmy and Natalie!! We hope you guys have so much fun from Pennsylvania!!

[@NorthernRetreat]

Giant beer and a pretzel can make anyone's day. Good video. 👍

[@wokeaf1337]

14:00 1 Maß is not exactly 1L, it is a bit more it is 1, 069 L the number 69 is important

[@TimeTraveler8528]

That Rathaus looks so clean now. Back in the late 80s, it was all scaffolding.

[@Craig_KCfan]

Hey guys well I have been with you since you first built your schoolie, then got your smaller van and now you are in Germany.. I lived in Germany for 4 yrs my parents were in Air Force I was a teen- ager then, it was from 81-85. If you guys can you should check out Frankfurt, Heidelberg Castle and The Black-forest… Those were some of my favorite places to visit when I was there.. I actually got to go over to East Germany when the wall was still up… I have a stupid question you guys are spending 100 dollars a day that doesn’t include lodging right? I told you it was a stupid question., Wow you guys are living a dream good for you.. Thank you for sharing it with me and others.. Safe travels and God bless Craig
