ABOUT ME: Hallo, Servus, and welcome to my channel! My name is Felicia (Feli), I'm 26, and I'm a German living in the USA! I was born and raised in Munich, Germany but have been living in Cincinnati, Ohio off and on since 2016. I first came here for an exchange semester during my undergrad at LMU Munich, then I returned for an internship, and then I got my master's degree in Cincinnati. I was lucky enough to win the Green Card lottery and have been a permanent resident since 2019! In my videos, I talk about cultural differences between America and Germany, things I like and dislike about living here, and other experiences that I have made during my time in the States. Let me know what YOU would like to hear about in the comments below. DANKE :)

Hello!! I am a pretty run of the mill white American in Southwest Virginia, but I have traced my heritage on one side to a Hessian soldier who stayed after the Revolutionary War. As such, German culture, history and language have always been fascinating to me. I would love to visit the country someday!! I have just discovered your videos and I have been watching them nonstop. Thank you for putting your experiences and self out there for the curious like me to learn about another culture 😁🇩🇪🇺🇸

I had to read and translated a technical spec from German Rail, for integrating in to our (Airline) reservation system. One of the issues you might encounter is the technical terms. As somethings don’t translate the same, take FEBA (Forward Edge of the Battle Area), where as the translation from the equivalent in German translate to Forward Edge of the Defensive Zone. Then there are words that you think mean one thing, but mean another. The classic is Panzer, people think it means tank, it means armor (Panzershiffe = Battleship or a heavy cruiser). You probably noticed how German sentence’s are formed.

I visited Frankenmuth last Summer. To me as a Bavarian, it felt like going to Disney world or a theme park in general. Its funny to look at your home as a caricature. From a distance you might actually think you're somewhere in rural Bavaria such as Reit im Winkl. The food was okay. That being said, what we didn't like was the costumes that all the waiters are wearing. I get that its difficult to purchase real traditional Lederhosen or Dirndl, but i would argue that if you're going for such an immersive experience, you should go the extra Mile to get real clothing. I'm very interested in what you will think of it. Weißbier - ich mags Franziskaner oder Schneider weiße am liebsten, but i would recommend Erdinger to Americans, since you can get it in a lot of places and even airports.

Of course there are cheaper Options if you go to a place Like C&A where you can get something for about 30 to 100 dollars and i'd even appreciate something like this, but a Halloween costume is not what they should go for i believe. Just to complete the list, you can obviously also pay way more than the above if you go for a Designer Dirndl.

@Str8Water73 4 жыл бұрын

Politeness is culturally based different. As "Excuse me" in the US is understood as "Excuse me" it is the polite way. In Germany it could be understood as "hey, get out of my way." The polite way is to stay and wait until the person in front of you has finished her buisiness or just pass, if there is enough space without putting any pressur by saying anything. Politeness in Germany is more based on watching each other than talking. I hope, I helpt understanding by this explanation.

Felicia is slavonic (wide, round face; small chin; wide nose; delicade figure;), while americans are mostly celtic (long, rectangular face; big chin; narrow nose;). Actual (east) asians have a nose, that is shorter in the vertical direction, so the eyes are slanted downwards towards the nose. Note also, that etnic borders don't match with cold war borders. The slavs were east of the Saale/Elbe line, which also includes have of east Germany (and means saxony is not really saxon) and parts of Bavaria (arround Hof). Town names ending in "itz" are a good indicator.

History is poorly taught, even in good prep schools. The reason is that history teachers are either policy wonks or they tend to focus in on one area. Ten years ago, when faced with having to write a screenplay about World War One, I realized that I knew next to nothing despite 17 years of schooling-so I educated myself. If I were to design a history curriculum I would include a number of movies, then talk to the students immediately after the movie so that anything not clear could be explained. Make history multi dimensional so to speak instead of making students learn information that really isn't relevant. And this is why history is sooooo very boring to most students-you are forced to learn something that only fascinates your teacher.

Regarding the "what language do you dream in?", I personally only speak English, but I have asked many people who speak multiple languages (polyglots) when they are thinking to themselves, which language do they think in, and practically every one would say it changes, and typically would be in the language they are currently using at that particular time, so not necessarily their mother tongue all the time. By the way, I'm very impressed with your English, you speak with practically no German accent.

Hi Feli! Thanks for yet another amazing video! I agree with you in regard to driving personalities. I was raised on the east coast and now live on the west coast. Since my family lives on the east coast, this offers plenty of diverse driving experiences. I was somewhat surprised by the driving personalities in other countries. However, I wonder if the driving habits might be relative to location and the level of congestion based upon the density of the area (e.g., urban, suburban, rural, etc.)? Germany is one of the larger counties in Europe. Geographically speaking (by area), it is actually smaller than the state of Montana. This leads to a higher population density. In Germany, the density is much higher (623 per square mile) than Ohio (284 per square mile). Germany's density is higher than most other individual states. Thus, outside of the cities, there is generally less congestion on most roads, highways and interstates in the United States. This is also despite the fact that there are more cars (per capita) in the U.S. than most other nations. I suppose that I am a bit more relaxed. Even in the Silicon Valley (where I live), I am not an aggressive driver. I think that the same is true of many people in this area.

We are New Yorkers living in New Mexico for the last 25 years and that may also account for the directness.

I'd say it is impossible to have a single "ethinic identity" in the USA as well as most countries. I also don't see why it matters, and I'm sick of being asked on every government form for my ethnicity. We are all humans, and beyond that, nothing else matters.

In an ideal world, your race, ethnicity group, religion or social/economic standing and education wouldn't matter. However, we don't live in systems where what's right, fair or just is even possible let alone a priority. You're either master or slave. While physical enslavement still exists, most of us are mentally enslaved by corporate, religious and political systems.

@dapsapsrp 3 жыл бұрын

I disagree. Ethnicity can be a singular or a variable thing. I was born in the US as were my parents and grandparents so it is safe to say that my ethnicity is American or more specifically Midwestern. Going back to the 1700's and 1800's most of my relatives were from Europe and at least one from equatorial Africa. If one were an immigrant and settled in the US as a first generation American they could be defined as multi-ethnic depending on how closely they act or adhere to American culture or the culture from which they came. Some people assimilate much more readily than others. The same would go for their children, though to a lesser extent. Also, as some others have incorrectly mentioned, ethnicity and race are NOT the same thing. Questions related to this on forms DO matter since, thanks to liberals and Democrats, we have hiring and employment quotas in this country in order to make things "fair". The Left like to say race or gender never matters, but at the same time it does with imposed quotas. It applies to age as well. Experiments have been conducted where the same person, a middle aged white male applied for a job and got few to zero responses. They then fabricated a resume as a 20 something Asian, man or women, and got immediate responses. Ancestral ethnicity is important to certain extents, especially when it comes to medical or general health matters. This is a whole other matter for discussion.

@nathan2813 3 жыл бұрын

What the US Needs, that perhaps run alongside the regular major interstates, are perhaps faster "express" lanes (some have these "express" lanes but the speed limits are the same as the regular non-express lanes/sections and they are mainly intended for drivers who are driving through an area -- as they are primarily found around large cities -- as they don't have lanes that enter/exit so you don't have to worry about people merging/exiting). But I think something like this might work but with faster speed limits, especially for someone who is passing through an area and will not be exiting to local areas/streets, say you're driving through Cincinnati on the tollway/freeway, and even out in the country, a high-speed express lanes would be useful.

Regarding the ethnic question, I consider myself of German descent. One part of my family was Volga German (a few miles from Saratov, Russia). Another part was Prussian. I know that some people have an issue with Prussia. If I go back far enough, perhaps from Mecklenburg. A few of my great-great grandparents came from a few miles from what's now Poznan, Poland. It's possible I may have some Polish or Russian blood, but I don't know.
