The paradox of America; every single state has areas that are so damn beautiful they can be put up against any other place in the world with the same climate. You like desert canyons? Arizona and Utah have the most breathtaking canyons and mesa’s in the world. You’re more of a tropical guy? Hawaii literally looks like a VSCO filter in real life. Want green mountains? The Pacific Northwest might just have the most beautiful forests out there. But also, every single state has areas that are all just low rise, wide street, parking lot truck stop towns that look like they were made in war-time and have never been updated. For every Yellowstone, there are three small towns that all look the exact same. (Ugly and boring).

100% accurate, I'm an American who lived abroad from age 12-28, and I moved back to the U.S. in 2019, and man have I been missing Europe ever since. It really does feel very lonely and isolated here, and Americans in general don't really socialize like how they do abroad. I've basically gone from being extremely social going out with friends constantly and meeting new people, to being a loner shut in, who sits at home all the time. I'm not as fit and healthy as I use to be abroad either, and it's made me pretty depressed. I'm dying to got back.

[@TheAmericanCatholic]

I think it’s the Levittown style suburbs that are boring and isolate people. Car dependent suburbia are bad for your health and socializing with people. There are walkable cities in the United States and walkable usually pre ww2 suburbs that are transit oriented and nice but expensive. The walkable cities I know with transit are Philly ,DC,NYC , Boston ,Chicago Also San Francisco,Portland and Seattle. But most of these cities are expensive or only going to be affordable for the next few decades before rents go way to high. Philly is cheap now but in the future I’m not sure if that would be the case.DC isn’t super high but also not super low it’s nothing like Boston or nyc Unlike America having a select number of walkable cities the many European countries have a massive overwhelming amount of walkable cities with them all being very walkable and the majority having great expansive public transit.

[@momo1234368]

@@TheAmericanCatholic i use to live in NY and would go into the city a lot with my family, and I would say it's nearly as walkable as Europe's cities, as well as my old hometown there being on that predates WW2 and even the things that I considered walkable as child were quite a long walk away comparing it to where I use to live abroad. Cause aside from having stuff with in 5-15 minutes walk away, the public transport was waaaay better so you could get to further places easier. I actually remember using my bike to get to work everyday, cause it was faster than using a car or public transit. I personally like the peace and quiet of the suburbs here, but I'd say its really the public transportation that's severely lacking in most places, and lack of more scenic city/town spaces. Like his critique of huge parking lots is accurate af. There very few towns and cities with a beautiful walkable area full of restaurants parks and small businesses. Like where I use to live abroad the name for such places was basically a combination of the words for sidewalk and street in their language, cause it was like pedestrian streets with no cars. And it was typically a very pretty scenic part of the town or city, where you just enjoyed being there hanging around. Not to mention where I live right now there is a lack of like big parks too. If you look on the map you would think there are many all over the place, but nope, they're all golf courses. And the golf courses look nice and are very well maintained, but abroad I don't remember many golf courses, I can recall 1 from were I use to live, and around the town and cities there were nice parks for the public to hang out in and do what ever scattered through out. And sometimes there were nice little cafés in those big parks. And these things weren't in like just 1 side of town, its was more designed like they thought of each neighborhood being grouped together to create a town, rather than a huge grid town/city that gets sectioned out on a map.

Gattsu, I just wanted to thank you for such a well put together video and remind you that not all Brits are uncultured when travelling. Why, just last month the chaps from the polo club and I went for a little getaway on the obscure and quiet island of Ibiza. The flight there was slightly strange in that we were forced to share an aircraft cabin with actual members of the public. Worse, it took ages to unload our baggage, since we had brought our polo saddles as a little jape, and also our horses. At the hotel the staff flew into a rage when we tried riding up the main stairwell to our bedchambers. Bertrand attempted to explain the situation to the manager but it turned out the manager was fluent in neither Ancient Greek nor Latin (!!!). The next morning we were forced to breakfast on flakes of corn since apparently the hotel did not see fit to serve boar meat, nor mead. Well, you can imagine how that went down with the chaps. Barnaby began repeatedly blowing on his hunting horn to communicate his dissatisfaction. Archibald went frantically searching for a telegraph to contact the embassy. A dark cloud of intolerable service and frankly outrageous culinary standards had descended upon us and we jointly pledged not to suffer any further indignities. Barnaby was tackled by the manager almost immediately and removed from the premises - hardly Queensbury Rules, no? Archibald returned, reporting the hotel didn't even sport a telegraph machine, then promptly began screaming Land of Hope and Glory until he suffered a hernia and was taken to receive medical attention. Myself, I drank my father's entire hipflask of palo cortado sherry and took up a quill to contact all of Winston Churchill's living descendants to see if they might render assistance. In the end only one wrote back, and calling me a 'prick'. I may not, in good conscience, recommend Ibiza.

It's rather for when you need a lot of supplies at once, e.g. for a party or event or whatnot. Additional we just have no need for big stores to be our go-to supermarkets, as we have no need for the "wandering around the isles" aspect and as we also have no need for supermarkets to have everything one would possible need to buy in stock. Those needs are both fulfilled through having walkable cities with many easily accessible smaller shops that mainly specify in selling one specific thing and also through shopping centers/malls that haven't died out like they did in the US.

As someone who lives in America, WHYYYYYY, WHY THE FUCK DID WE LET THESE “PEOPLE” DESIGN OUR CITIES. We had one job, just one. Our cities used to look fucking awesome with amazing public transport. But no, apparently we needed cars and we needed to use them all the time. Every day I wish for an at least semi-decent politician to run on public transportation and better infrastructure. Please, the other problems like the military industrial complex, the lobbying and the wealth inequality can wait. Just give me livable cities. I live in Modesto (CA), respectfully, it sucks ass here. I love my home and I love the state I live in, but mannnn. If we just had more bike lanes, maybe repurpose some roads into tram or light rail services… If only.

As a Romanian who considers themselves middle class and who's had multiple opportunities to leave the country but didn't, I want to give my two cents about an issue. I completely agree with the fact that Western Europe has incredible looking cities but you didn't touch the sensitive point of housing there. There is no way in hell I'll move to the Netherlands for example and share my house with other people, even if they were my friends. This is a story I heard so many times from people I know who moved there (uni and work), they either didn't have enough money to rent an apartment for themselves (understandable if student) or there simply were no any apartments available. To me this is complete hell. Their cities might have the most beautiful, most clean buildings, but what's the point if inside them there are multiple people / families living together? Might as well be homeless and admire the city all day all night. Another thing about housing is the huge deposits you need to rent something. A high school friend who went to Denmark to study told me she had to give 3 times the rent as a deposit AND the landlord didn't give them back because they found some "defect" somewhere. Heard that that's pretty common... And the fact that many people in Western Europe (poor/middle class) have to share their intimacy with others because even though for our Eastern European standards they earn much more money than us baffles me. Hell, here in Romania 95% of people own their home (or the bank, but still, they don't pay rent). Idk... I very much prefer to look for opportunities in Romania, to earn as much as I can and live okay. Communist apartment block, ugly on the outside and cozy on the inside. For reference, I pay 300 euros/month for a two rooms apartment in the central Bucharest.

Be aware though that the housing market in the Netherlands is impossible.

Sure none of it is actually free, we just pay for them indirecly through taxes, but basically paying taxes here in Finland is kind of like philanthropy, since it gets us safety and education.

I have explained it so many times to people I grew up with how this is such a North American phenomenon as I have traveled throughout East Asia and cities there while crowded, are super easy to move around (except for Manila; that's a legit sh*thole). I keep getting treated as a crazy man for saying all this because none of my childhood friends have traveled as much as I have (thanks US Navy for that; Navy veteran) and they haven't seen any alternative to this sort of life, or they embrace it and see you hating the USA if you mention it (funny how the same jingoists are almost always afraid of joining the US Military but they LOVE supporting pointless wars).

[@baronvonjo1929]

I completely agree. However I really don't think anything will happen to fix. There is a movement to change it. But it will probably only happen in the dense concrete jungles we call cities. I look at my area here in South Carolina and there is absolutely no way to add walkable areas or public transit in the areas current form. You can't add a bus stop or train station outside every neighborhood. You would need a car to get to a central location and then a car afterwards. All the businesses and houses are far to separated to be walkable. Plus not very scenic on these awful stroads. Biking would also be dreadful in the rolling hills if the Appalachian Mts. With the humid summers and freezing winters. It just isn't a option. Then you would have to convince people to stop using cars and probably give up the single family homes on the scale we do. I'm not saying it's impossible to change all this. But it certainly won't happen in my life time. Walkable areas are way to expensive to live for me and renting for years with nothing to show for it after years isn't very enticing.

It's also undoing all the development that the USA has done since 1945 since we have developed the interstate system based out of suburbia and the associated service jobs that come with mass auto ownership. Americans who depend on those jobs and on single family homes will vote against it and never change their ways. This is even more the case outside of the traditional coastal states (i.e flyover states+Dixie). I dont want to bother with trying to change something I know I can't do, and knowing that a majority of Americans will not support me because they're so stuck in their ways and will see me as some crazy man for proposing change.

And the worst thing: my city is very, very close to farmland so fertile God itself is jealous. These people could spend the same amount of time in the car to drive straight to the farm, and buy stuff directly from the farmer. But noooo, that's to many scary interactions. Better go to supermarket with headphones on while avoiding eyecontact with everyone(Didn't know i lived in Finland...) and pay 50 euros for 3 onions and 250grams of plastic cheese at the self-checkout robot. And even THAT is too much interaction because now you don't even have to leave your home because people order their groceries online, forcing some underpaid uninsured international student to bring you your _potje pindakaas_ that you could buy yourself by walking 5 F***KING meters.

The US grew up independently during the Industrial Revolution and is almost as big as the entirety of Europe. Naturally they use cars.

@@nevreiha If you're looking for something cool to do in Leiden, definitely check out Naturalis! Its one of those museums that's fun for everyone as opposed to just being fun to those already interested in the particular subject matter

Hague probably isn´t the greatest place if you want to get away from Putin.

49% tax.... in the province of Quebec, Canada you are taxed over 50% and if you have a bonus at the end of the year 56% is magically gone. 😂

hey man as a Americans I get you most Americans hate big trucks in big cities they are so not practical and half the mfs that have them big ford f350 f250 f150 in the city they dont even use the back or need it for work they just think having a big truck makes them cool

I live in York and to tell you it really is something straight out of a fairytale and it’s cheaper and 100% more safe than London if you want to go I hugely recommend it

[@sxmori]

North Manchester is also breathtakingly beautiful

[@Yorkist_patriot]

True

[@Handmaderollies]

I’m from London and want to move up there at some point

hull is one of the most beautiful places in all of europe

Never been one to follow the crowd, I'm hustling backwards. Moved from Ireland to Russia.

[@Berjozka]

Привет! Can you tell how you feel about that decision and where did you moved? I mean, the country has harsh climate, hard to learn language and lots of places to move in. I understand that we have low taxes (basically nearly zero for foreigners), low prices and lots of jobs but what else do you appreciate and what minuses did you find? I'm really looking for your feedback! It's very interesting to see your perspective!

[@SWBGTOC]

Love how half of the video about western europe is actually about shitting on the US Big eastern euro vibes

[@lucydrop9596]

As a Serbian, living and working in Germany. This is funny AF, keep up the good work bro ; )

[@sxxrpientes5512]

Bro, love your videos, not only the jokes are funny, but the backgrounds in them are just facts that denotate you're a man of culture, nice work.

[@francisassisi1048]

London’s really not that bad bro it’s actually pretty chill, if you go there you’ll definitely change your mind. Great video apart from that.

[@upbeat6639]

Thanks for this video! Felt very informative and accurate at the same time. As a brit/northener I love York and my sister goes there for uni and it honestly is an amazing area. I always hear horror stories down south or in bigger cities like London/Manchester however!!

[@givemeyourarms]

true i live in york rn and i prefer it 2 london where i usually live, but i live in a nice area in london so i dont usually worry abt getting stabbed lol

[@kyzantia8884]

There are nice areas all around the UK but the big citys even though they have nice areas are usually shit, especially Birmingham, Bradford, and deprived coastal towns.

As a californian, I often wonder why a giant, several story tall building can take less than a year to build, while it takes over 20 years to build part of a small luxury house for one person.

[@heisennoob6446]

As a german, I do find it funny that we are the place to be for eastern europeans while germans complain how much they dislike it here constantly

[@einmensch9467]

As a follow german I do have to say, that complaining is definitely one of the our favorite things to do

[@xXRistoXx]

Die kommen nur für ein paar Jahre her, das verdiente Geld geht in die Heimat. So machen das Rumänen und Polen seit Jahrzehnten. In Deutschland auf der Baustelle oder Fabrik arbeiten und sobald das Haus abbezahlt ist geht es wieder nachhause.

[@duanerackham9567]

I visited the Netherlands after watching not just bikes here in the US. I still cannot stop thinking about how amazing that place is 4 months later. I've never been so happy at peace, content and connected to an area before in my life. I'm a full blown introvert and had more natural interactions in the Netherlands than I did in America for over 2~4 years (and if you subtract interactions in university make it basically my entire life). The whole world should be modeled after the Netherlands biking system. And the idea that most Americans are too stupid to understand how backwards putting all of our tax money into car infrastructure is, makes me depressed. They simply don't get it. If it weren't for my better than average job and family, I would relocate in a heartbeat. Start my life over there. I wouldn't even mind the high taxes. That place is amazing

[@wayhuncho6599]

I agree, as a person born here and that still lives here

aaaaactually all your money goes to aircraftcarriers and submarines.

I don't know how gattsu pulls it off but i always find myself engaged throughout the video and when it comes to an end i realize the video was 15 minutes

[@Trulex750]

5:15 SO TRUE. Literally going down my street like a fourth of the houses are completely empty and are just for the people that get back from Germany on holidays. So many people I know (or used to know) are now in Germany/Austria and I either see them occasionally or never see them in my life again

[@manipulatortrash]

Man, videos like these are what makes me unironically hopeful the US (my homeland) will shape up one day. We've faltered plenty in the past, it only takes a concerted and united effort to get this stuff done.

[@ed8212]

because your country sure is very united and concerted 🤥 Couldnt be that theres a false dichotomy that your entire media and political culture is centered around, that there's ever boiling social, religious, moral and ethnic tensions riled up by the same apparatus... keep dreaming Ameriboy theyve got your country firmly by the balls

[@fatboyRAY24]

What stuff? Low salary?

[@mincraftisawsome1234]

What stuff paying 39-56% of your monthly salary to taxes so you get some bike lanes and cheap metro/bus routes??

[@Siranoxz]

@@fatboyRAY24 Public friendly infrastructure like cycling walking and public transport like Metro´s.

[@JonasGutenwald-yj8th]

I agree! If the US could better shape up their bureaucracy, we’d have the money to pay for free healthcare, and if China stops trying to compete with us, we could do wonders by taking a couple billion off the military.
