I subscribed some months ago because you showed me some place in my own country that I had passed by before on my travels, ignorant of its beauty as I was at the time. Forgot which one it was, because somehow you keep doing that, now you did it again. You have covered many lesser known places, not the ones everybody has heard of, that is special about your channel. Also appreciate your research and storytelling.

It was Neuburg, Ulrich, I think! Thank you so much for your lovely words. I really like the lesser known places because I admire the effort the people who live there make, for the love of their town, not for the tourist industry so much. I think it’s what makes Germany such a fabulous country to live in.

Oh... Just when i thought i had seen all of your videos, both the travel vlogs and the musical once from Voice Passion, KZbin suddenly recommended this one to me. That is so great. We have this kind of buildings in Denmark as well. Both in Danish cities like Aalborg, and in rural farm houses. Not so many preserved in Norway. I was once told by a friend of mine that Oslo is attractive to architectural tourists even though Oslo is a rather small city. Because over a relatively small area there are buildings representing more than 11 hundred years. Over the years i have visited different places in Germany maybe 25 times. Really lots of times to Kiel, a few times to Hamburg, Hannover, Cologne, Neunkirchen and some other places. I love so many aspects of german culture. Thanks for another great video.👍
