I went in December for two weeks. All of it was pretty awesome. I liked the surfing bit. I'm from a beach area so it was cool to see people surfing on a river and being really polite taking turns. It was nice to walk around and the people I stayed with were my tour guides so they explained all the history to me. I learned I was very out of shape though.

The trick is to live in either the suburbs or in bigger cities that are still part of the region. I used to commute from Landshut to Munich on a daily basis and takes about 45 minutes to 1 hour. My hometown (Landshut) is still very affordable. CHECK IT OUT!!!

[@judys9083]

I second that. I had the good fortune of being sent to live there for 6 month by my company. Hands down the most beautiful city in Germany and it just so happens to have the best beers in all of Bavaria, and that includes Munich!

0:05 the left car I transported a lot of times. This was a ”Erlkönig“ 11:40 in Bavarian Leberkäs is no liver, but it’s allowed to named it Leberkäs. Elsewhere in Germany it is named Fleischkäse

[@DeanaandPhil]

Ohh really?! That's pretty cool! Phil was telling me about those because I initially thought that was an interesting car design choice. 😂😅

One in a foil, which covers the real autobody or plastic form pieces, which are fixed with screws on the autobody PS: Again my question: What is with Obazda? You must taste it, Deana. A prezn(Bretzel), Obazda and a Weißbier. It’s so yummi

[@anashiedler6926]

Funny Detail: In Austria also Leberkäse (also "Leberka(a)s" never has any Liver in it, and "Fleischkäse" is completely unknown.

[@svenwaibel7007]

Leberkäs outside Bavaria must have liver in it (i think it was 5% or so) then it's a Leberkäs, otherwise it's a Fleischkäs. In Franconia (part of Bavaria) there you may get a Leberkäse or a Fleischkäs when you order a Leberkäs, it depends on the butcher and his products. It's a difficult topic, just look at the Leberkäs, with liver it's grayish, Fleischkäs looks rather like meat.

Just saw this video for the first time. I love Munich, spent three weeks there back in 1987. I not only fell in love with the City, I fell in love. Did not want to leave. I hope to get there again, but as you mentioned it is the most expensive city in Germany. I live in one of the cheapest, Leipzig. One of these days though, I might be able to spend a day or two. I'm jealous!

[@davidkisner8332]

While stationed in Ansbach 1980 - 1983, I would go down to Munich about 4 times a year. Loved being there and my family did too. so many places to visit, so much history. Can't say what is my favorite, I loved all of Germany (it was West Germany back then).

If i could live anywhere else in the world it would be Munich. If you go North again you should visit Münster. I was stationed there for 4 years in early 90s, lovely place. Enjoying your exploring videos. Greetings from Outer Hebrides, Scotland.

sorry in advance for my bad english. i missed the opportunity to give you some advice for munich/bavaria. living in the center of munich is mostly no option for anyone but you can still get into the surrounding areas like "Aubing/Fürstenfeldbruck" and other close by citys. The train connection to munich is insane and you are pretty fast in the center. also you forgot to visit the great lakes in bavaria which are not that far away and i guess Deana would hve loved the alps

I would suggest visiting or living Bamberg in Bavaria. It’s my home town and loved growing up there. It’s not too big either and has lots of old buildings, history, food places and nature spots.

[@rickrash8117]

I totally agree with you! I lived in Bamberg in the early 70’s and loved it! Enjoyed walking around the town, by the Dom, by the Town Hall on the island in the Regnitz, I think, seeing the flower vendors, and seeing the Pauli Bear in the Castle on the hill above the town.

Enjoyed the video very much. Both of you are really good hosts. Munich's town hall is really beautiful and impressive. An amazing building. Btw, other people have already mentioned this but "Frauenkirche" translates to "Church of Our Lady", eg. the Virgin Mary. I love the way that buildings in the historical centres of European cities are built in similar styles so they look harmonious together whereas in North America, landowners have built buildings over the years with different heights and different styles, which may not look so great together. Very little town planning. I look forward to checking out your other videos.

They’re so much fun to watch, and it’s great watching you together as a couple! You make a great team and wonderful couple! I also want to thank you because you’re fulfilling a dream of mine. I wanted to go to Germany for my birthday, but because of Trump not handling Covid 19, the way he should have. Unfortunately, citizens from the US are not allowed into Germany right now...So that crushed my dream. 🥺 But, now in a different way, I’m able to have a little of my dream come true, by watching your videos of Germany!

As far as places to visit, I apologize for not having seen every video. My family lived in Bamberg and Fulda in the 1990’s, and my family is from Trier, Goettingen, and Berlin (the Lambio and von Zengen families). I would love to see Trier, Goettingen, and Saarland since I never got to go there. Bamberg (Unteraurach) was nearly 30 years ago, but I remember it being so pretty in the countryside. Fulda was living on the Kaserne, so it was boring architecturally. Tschuss!

[@S_Black]

Not all of that stuff is as old as it looks. You can certainly find genuine Renaissance, Baroque and Classical architecture there, but also lots of "retro" buildings. Which was a very big thing in the late 19th century. The city hall for example was only built around 1900
