I found the statement from the German-Belgian very appropriate if other people are doing well then you are doing well too. Or if you are friendly and nice to others you will get the friendliness back. I think it is very nice that the shops are closed on Sundays, because then there is little traffic and you have peace and quiet.🙂💙

Way in the past, pretty much everything here in The Netherlands was closed on Sunday, except bars and restaurants. In some parts, this is still true, but in major cities it is now common to find supermarkets open as well as some shops, especially in town centers (though opening hours may differ from the 'regular' ones). The comment from the Belgian guy actually reminded me of the car-free Sundays we used to have here back in the mid 70's because of the oil crisis. It was quite an experience to see a normally busy highway being completely deserted and being able to play tag on it 🙂

Up until the 1990s, the opening hours of shops were limited to 6/7 p.m. from Monday to Friday and to 2 p.m. on Saturdays. Most people were able to do their shopping in time. Shops were only open until 6 p.m. on Saturdays during the Advent season. Then this clause was relaxed and shops were open once a week (long Thursday) until 8/9 p.m. Now you can find (grocery) shops (depending on the region; town or small town) open until 11 p.m.

My typical German weekend starts at Saturday with the visit of the local farmer's market (which is by the way about 15 times older than me), followed by a lengthy brunch with my family. Since I'm a bit older now, I'll chill afterwards a few hours, maybe do then something in the garden, and only rarely go out in the evening. Sunday is chilling, doing some tidy up, coffee and cake, preparing for the week and cooking the dinner (which is to me a way to relax).

But if you wanted to extend it to the whole area that each city has jurisdiction over it would still not work as easily

Some history about the German speaking Belgians, i'm from the Flemish speaking part of Belgium up north. After the German defeat in WW1 , Belgium took a part of Germany as war compensation. So the people of that region became Belgians against their will. Then WW2 started, and the Germans took back this German speaking region. Many of the young man were enlisted in the Wehrmacht , well because they were..Germans.....many died on the war fronts. Then in 1944 when Belgium was liberated, they took back the German speaking region, so the people were...Belgians again....and they remained so till the present day. I think there are about 80.000 German speaking Belgians, and they have their own parliament and German is now one of our three national languages namely Dutch ( Flemish ) , French and German.

I actually experienced a (partially) car-free Berlin at the Berlin Marathon. We didn't run along, but walked the course along the edge and that was a unique experience. My weekend as a German is always quiet, takes place at home or in nature and is for relaxation. The fact that stores are closed on Sunday is not a problem at all. We Germans grew up that way and plan our shopping for other days.

Unlike in rural areas, in Berlin you don't need to "prepare" Sunday. The so-called "Spätis" (1 Späti (sg.) / 3 Spätis (pl.), German "spät" means "late") are open every day and often all night. Here you can buy alcohol as well as things of daily use. And regular supermarkets are open at the major train stations.

a stereotypical German weekend: going grocery shopping and cleaning your space on Saturday (as you cannot do both on Sundays) and meeting friends or inviting friends in the evening (very common) - or just staying at home watching TV. Those that have a garden do some gardening on the weekend. Sundays are late breakfast(brunch), a Sunday walk, Kaffee und Kuchen (coffee and cake) often together with visiting parents or grandparents, coming home around Abendbrot (dinner) time - and then doing a few things to get ready for Monday morning (looking if you have everything, putting out your clothes, and traditionally the students then exclaim: Mama I need a medieval castle, some Roman costumes and a first edition of Goethes Faust for tomorrow)

11:25 judging from your excitement, it would probably be a bit disappointing, if you happened to be there on a "verkaufsoffener Sonntag" - a Sunday with shops open.😅 That older man you perceived as someone with a lot going on and working hard btw. had a bit of a Berlin accent and demeanor which to me seemed quite relaxed and easy going with quite a "typical" pinch of irony/sarcasm often delivered with a bit of a smirk. Janusz I think is Polish (the name is Polish (I think) and he also has an accent).

They make it sound as if nobody is working on sundays - that is absolutely not so. Apart of McD, other restaurants, gas stations, bakeries and many more, there are a lot of things that work 24/7. Hospitals, police, railroad, airports, all those things we are taking for granted, also have a lot of employees. Of course also these people are getting time off, but not always on the sunday. The "free weekend" only applies to people who work in companies that are working 5 day weeks, or in office jobs and such.

yes, that's what I thought, too. Many people do work on Sundays (and many of them work to make Sundays these typical "chill out" days for others, keep everything going, or to be there for people in case of emergencies - maybe even without being paid because of doing voluntary work). Maybe in the future all these jobs will be done by robots and then it's totally correct to generalize and say without any ignorance "Germans don't work on Sunday"...

When it comes to shops being closed on Sundays, it depends in which state you live. While the rule of thumb is that most things are closed except for entertainment stuff like Resturants or Amusement Parks and necessary things like Hostpitals and Gas stations, in Schleswig-Holstein (The most nothern State of Germany) there are a lot of tourists, because of the Sea, so in Summer everything is still open on Sundays but not as long for example as on a regular Weekend day.

On Sunday everything is closed except for restaurants and hospitals, also elderly care. Otherwise I don't know what's open, maybe gas stations. But I'm not sure, I don't have a car. But it makes sense, people aren't suddenly younger or healthier on Sunday. Restaurants simply make the most money at the weekend, so many have a day off during the week, often monday or can be another one but Friday, Saturday and Sunday is always busy there so it wouldn't make sense to close.

About traveling within Germany: There is the so called "Deutschlandticket" or "49€-Ticket" for public transport. It is like a monthly subscription for 49€ and allows you to use all regional trains, Busses and the U-Bahn all over Germany. So everything except for the IC, ICE and EC. The ticket also works within the City networks, so you can also use it in Berlin. It is a new government funded program (Mai 2023) and definitely worth looking into it. There is no cheaper option to get around when you plan on using public transportation. Have lots of fun exploring, it's gonna be great!!

Or maybe she hadn't realized it yet (perhaps you noticed how she said "she (the grandmother) LIVES in..."). Maybe it feels weird or 'shaming' to her being the person now who gets the sympathy of everyone and kind of 'crushes' the good mood of everyone. Maybe it was her first actual loss when she was used to mostly having a good time given her obviously still relatively young age. Maybe it just sucks to experience grief rather than experience a good time. We don't know that and I don't think it's very fair to jump to conclusions such as 'apparently the grandmother didn't mean much to her'. Different people cope differently and there are things like 'being in shock' or as I wrote before not having realized yet that the person is actually dead.

Spend Sunday swimming, sightseeing, or going to a museum. Shops are closed, not everything. Go for a walk in a park, lie down on the grass and drink a bottle of beer. In such a moment you will never think about shopping. If you went to a party on Saturday and come back to your hotel very early in the morning on Sunday, all you want to do is sleep. The Sabbath in Israel is observed more strictly than the German Sunday (I've been to Israel several times and it's also a wonderful time to spend).

Hey first of all. I really like your Videos. I think you have a nice perspective on things. ✌I don't know why Germans (or is it just me?🤷‍♀😂) are kind of obsessed with reaction videos of their country. Maybe because of our past we kind of want to be "everybody's darling". But does not really matter. ^^ I wish you a nice trip to Germany/Europe and hopefully you'll have a lot of nice experiences. I wonder that "Hamburg" (the second largest city in Germany) seems barely a topic in all the reaction videos. Maybe it's not as fancy as Berlin and not as historical than Munich, but it has it's own History with the "Hanse" etc. and has a small, but very nice music-scene, the biggest Harbour in Germany, it's close to the north and east sea. I would just recommend to also spend some days here, but don't know how your schedule looks like. And especially for this Video: Sure, grocery and clothing stores etc. are closed on Sunday, but the restaurants, bakeries, gas stations, "Spätis" or "Kiosk" are allowed to open on Sunday and here in Hamburg for example there is a grocery store at the airport and the central station that are also open. so it's not impossible to get something on Sundays. ;)

Don't get it twisted though; A lot of people, especially those that have to maintain Germany, have to work. I for one work 24/7 and most of the people I associate with do too. And we do have small shops open, even on sundays. Even, where I live, in the province. It depends on the location and the owner. And the dude at 14:20 is most likely a socialist. Only difference is; So is the state, so it's fine 🙂

“Janusz” is an unusual name because “sz” is usually a Polish spelling not German. In German it would normally be spelled “Janusch”.

I was think the exact same thing when the guy said, if everyone is better he feels better… In the U.S. he would be mocked and denigrated for thinking that way. And oddly enough, although this is the core basics of Christianity, American Christians (I KNOW not all would, I am over-simplifying here, so don’t comment if your fingers itch here) would chime in and call him a commy betrayer…

If you ask a German something, he/she will answer, we learned it when we are very young. One tip say hallo if you meet a German. "how do you do" can end in a long monologue.🤗

I am super suprised about the answers. My answer would: Saturday I am cleaning my kitchen, wash cloth, preparing food for the next week, to take to work... Many people spend time maintaining there garden etc. These answers in the Video are from Berliners. But Berlin is not germany.

Your microphone often is very quiet in comparison to the videos you react to. Maybe you should use a compressor for your microphone and for the total sound output.

Well, I use to work nearly every week-end. My free days are usually Tuesday and Wednesday. So it's absolute rubbish to tell people it's forbidden to work on Sundays. What about doctors, nurses, police men, fire brigades, media workers (like me, at radio and TV stations) and so on? Of course they all have to work on week-ends.

I think YOUR weekend in Germany will (or should) look like: partying at the clubs in Berlin, get drunk and find yourself some pretty company to take to your Hotel 😂 Don't be shy, don't be scared, just rock hard in Germany! Have some fun, have some flirts and have a f*cking lot of german Beer!

14:17 It may sound for some a bit like a "leftist" attitude, but actually this was once also the core of Christianity, based on the teachings of Jesus Christ. And in some sense it is also the core of the teachings of Gautama Buddha (and many other religions and philosophies).

You have one single weekend in Germany? You will see nearly nothing... Spend that time in one town only and try to see at least the basics. Although having been several times in Berlin, for not less than 3 or 4 days ("long weekend / bridge day"), I consider not to have seen very much. My last two holidays have been to Rome, Italy, for 10 and 7 full days respectively, and I consider this, there, the bare minimum.
