a day in Enschede

Enschede! A relatively small city in the Netherlnds, great for student and families. But they do have all the Dutch things you might be looking for: Albert Heijn, Stroopwaffles, bikes and coffeeshops.
They are well known for the Twente University and Being a city where Germans come to do shopping on the weekend.
I lived in enschede for years, so I feel like I know the city pretty well. I didn't have time to show you everything you can do in Enschede like seeing the ugliest building in the Netherlands or going on a breezy swim but I covered all the basics of the city.

As an Enschede based and raised person, that Frank & Charlie place is one we often visit when we want to have that 'out of Enschede' feeling. Y'all, that's like having a lil' coffee in the sunshine in some Rotterdam Backalley. Great contribution to the vibe in the city (that street is so much better now) as well!

[@Nebuloid1]

Didn't even know about that cafe before now ! Haven't been in the city for a while, but always used to cut through that alley to save time...

[@OCDingqueer]

I used to live in neighboring city Hengelo for 11 years and Enschede always had a special place in my heart. Im thinking of moving to Enschede in the future.

[@thatoneguy9082]

Ive been living in enschede for around a year now and this video has shown me so many fun places I didnt know about.

[@Creddiam]

Fun fact: The Volkspark (People's Park) was a gift from textile baron Hendrik van Heek to the workers of Enschede. It's also the oldest public park of The Netherlands.

[@MyILoveMinecraft]

As a German so close to the border I usually go shopping there, and I got to say I love it. I have been to many cities but Enschede is so amazingly designed, doesn't matter what kind of transportation you take, car, public transport or bike, you get everywhere fast, can park your vehicle close by and get your shopping over with fast

[@pjkr123]

And vice versa, every end of the month before payday, we often shop in germany and especially in gronau, some cashier can speak dutch :D

[@MyILoveMinecraft]

@@pjkr123 ah yes Gronau, my best friends gf is a refugee from there. Most criminal small town in Germany for years in a row until they stopped making that statistic. No. 1 place to buy used cars, because being in gronau makes it 500€ cheaper by default

[@Creddiam]

@@pjkr123 Some JET-cashiers also speak Dutch

[@Waryfuls]

Seeing cities like these so close away from me through someone's their lens/story is so cool, _and weird._

[@NIT3WORK]

Living in Germany close to the border, i think it's the most visited city in my whole life 🙂

[@MrTrash]

I think rappers like to call this city "esketit"

[@ogkendrick6392]

I don’t care who will call it that way but I’m sure as hell gonna call this city esketit

[@scarba]

It’s impossible not to love ❤the Netherlands

[@m1ndk1ller]

Randomly stumbled across this channel and im literally sitting in a building next to the volkspark right now, I can see one of my colleagues in the video in the park, cool!

[@aarondanso233]

Your videos are always fun to watch 🫶🏿

[@noutjeee17noutjepsychic]

This was so fun to watch! I’ve never seen people make videos about this city, so this is really cool! :D

[@Georgian2go]

love the netherlands

[@OBIwanja]

Nice to see Enschede here :) mind back memories. That is my first city i lived ever, in Europe. Lived there only a year but have essencial memories. Miss the back yard BBQ in winter. Actually fire was burning all in winter there with bunch of sausages. Having backyard there in the city is quite common for student from outside which is very unique. City Location on the border easy makes traveling to Münster to Düsseldorf (nice japanese food trip)with groupticket. Close to Forest there are so many deers. There are so many valuable things uniquely to do there. Already passed about 7 years. I was there when the decadal event, Münster sculpture project was happening, that will soon to be happen, could be a nice joint travel to there also. Miss the yellow train in the Netherlands that is A homesick of mine, taking and seeing auful red of DB every in the morning is 😅😢😂 Thanks for bring me back to a memory trip:)

[@robwilliams2410]

Yea, nice to see you!

[@cjbrunet8663]

[@Richardus33]

[@user-nt9gk8xe1e]

[@cilorgulung]

Your content is very fun to watch Erika! Sending warm hugs from Indonesia 😊. If u happened to stream on twitch or youtube I would definitely watch it.

[@Kannaxx]

Sveika Ērika! Vienmēr esmu vēlējies migrēt uz Nīderlandi!

[@ChunkyOrca]

[@nl3kevin]

[@forestvanslyke]

Goats!

[@editaedita473]

@helloerika are you Dutch or German Erika?

[@JohnLewis-old]

"It's good"

[@foxx9631]

Quite a coincidence you walked and filmed right in front of my mom's office😅

[@LuisMorales-gr2rs]

What is the name of the second place of the goats? Never seen it before

[@helloerika]

I dont have the name but it s very south of Enschede. Might be called Natuurgebied or it's somewhere near that region

[@beetsakasja]

Judging from streetview it is probably the area between Heersenkampweg, Voshaarweg and Jacobsrietweg. Nord of Rutbeek.

[@theoradestra7060]

YEP! Blue = You [HAT]

[@ferael0013]

So strange to see Enschede from someone else's perspective :3 I'm currently studying Creative Media and Game Technologies at Saxion and have been living in Enschede for 2 years now :D it's the first place I've moved to on my own and it's just a nice chill place :D I'll have to check out the Frank and Charlie cafe

[@iamspencerx]

Why do you describe everything so well but when it comes to food it's just "good"

[@VoidUnderTheSun]

What the hell. I got this in my recommends and when it hit your and Rik's faces I was like: Oh shit! I know both of you! (Rik a slight a bit more) NEST + Sax gang gang

[@helloerika]

:D

[@ifer1280]

THAT'S WHERE I SAW HER BEFORE!

[@achmadiid8644]

Do you speak Dutch or German??

[@antoshiquemozdziak2141]

Omg, how can I find this place with gooses and goats?

[@helloerika]

it's in Het Volkspark

[@bagamnan9170]

Ahhh Enschede or as i like to call it the city that went out with a bang!​@@helloerika

[@samuelruhanen1577]

Your true home is at Calslaan

[@suukaataaji]

[@jumpyrpg]

Enschede is kinda goofy. Oldenzaal is where it's at

[@mikedanyurs5126]

How do you send a donation to help you make more videos? Perhaps you could sign up for Buy me a coffee or something similar?

[@helloerika]

Thank you for the sweet message! That's a good idea, im still figuring stuff out, so it might take some time :))

[@mikedanyurs5126]

How about sending you American peanut butter?

[@tonyeff8841]

Hello,nice video congratulations!Then you help me out to take a decision to make move over there, because I have a job offer.Thanks

[@Marius-xn6qb]

[@godsgiftmaggot898]

[@Elfo_]

The city logo at 0:57 looks like a logo from a satanic cult or something like that.
