Living 7 years in Germany | my experience

I have been living in munich for almost 7 years now and what a ride! I can defently recommend this city. I give it a solid 8.5/10 :)

Let me know if you have any questions and hope you are having a great day!

Hey Guys! B2 level is bit to much lol! but a solid A2 will get you placesss! Will make a video about jobs in the future :)

great summary about life here! i wanna contribute to your video and some people who consider to move to Munich.
i am living also in Munich since 3 years. I agree with you that learning German is a key. But learning B2 before coming here should be really challenging 😛

About socializing part, i really feel like Germans do not care about foreigners to involve them in their circle. This could be faced in any other foreign country, but it is a bit harder here. Because I feel like Germans themselves are not so warm to each other. They have basically kindergarten friends and they stay touch with limited people. I feel like they are like a mystery :D, they do not give you some basic simple info from their life for a long time. 😬

By hobbies or some occasions (work, language course etc), one can have a circle here. Unfortunately it is not easy, especially to have a German circle. I have friends from my nation + some internationals from my hobbies. I have some German work friends which are not like typical friendships.
In conclusion, I sometimes regret to not starting my new life in Netherlands. 😶‍🌫People there seem a bit more open.

Pros👍:
nature.
work-life balance.
enough internationals.
safe city.
good surroundings.
ok climate compared to north.

Cons👎:
need to learn German
not so welcoming
not so vibrant

Great video that *really* talks about what it’s like being in Munich!

[gianlucaferrari]

we are italian, just moved to Munich from US (Pennsylvania) for working in a multinational company. thank you for your videos, we are seeing them from US to prepare the move.
after 3 months in Munich i confirm all what you are saying....i am not sure we will live here forever, but a great city....international, everything is working and super safe.
fully agree also about your cons ;-)....but after living in Italy, Switzerland, US i can confirm that a perfect country does not exist.

A really great content and the editing is amazing as usual

[Valalalala]

hahaaha **fernando struggling** so funny! everything you mentioned was so relatable

[annikaspuzzle]

I am german from Munich and i can tell you it is also difficult for germans to make friends. like you said everybody has their friends from school or kindergarden and you dont really fit in there. so most of my friends are also from different cities and not from munich directly;)

Hi Fernando 👋 your videos are funny and easy to understand because I'm planning to move to MUNICH for TUM

[jpcoleman]

I lived in Muenchen 1988-1994 and loved it. The people are so cool and intelligent. I really miss the lifestyle there. I plan to return after retiring from a 30 year career with the USA. I luv the Germans.

Great video 👍.... btw: mountains are a short trip away to the south...

Te echábamos de menos, pequeño Tábora. ❤️☺️

Thank you for a great video! I wanted to ask about the weather though. I know you're from Venezuella which is very sunny place and as a Central Asian myself I find it hard to cope with lack of sunshine (currently live in Latvia). Can you pls explain how hard was it to get along and does it still effects your mood after 7 years?

[stephanvdmerwe]

Great video Fernando! I'm currently looking at getting a job in Germany, have you ever made use of any recruitment agencies there that you would recommend?

Enjoy your stay in Texas, I hope to see more content soon!
