Travel and Life in Germany

In this video, we’re going to share nine reasons why we think Germany is more welcoming to families and children than the United States is. There are many things the Germans have that Americans don’t.

Germans LOVE white asparagus during the spring, so I decided to buy some from my local farmers’ market and make my own at home for the first time. Find out if we became fans of the white vegetable after we tried it!

During this part of our trip to Venice, Italy, we took the kids to a shop where they made Venetian masks. Then, we walked across the Rialto Bridge and climbed to the top of two towers, one of which is not well-known to tourists.

Our family of six took a trip to Venice, Italy. We took a Gondola ride, ate delicious Italian food, and toured all around Venice. Find out if Venice is worth all the hype in our video.

find that more Germans prefer tea over coffee. I’ll also attempt to show you an Ostfriesische Teezeremonie (or an East Frisian tea ceremony).

When Russia invaded Ukraine in early 2022, we saw many people from Germany opening their homes to Ukrainian refugees. We were inspired to do the same thing and welcomed a family from Ukraine and learned a lot about how refugees are treated in Germany and the USA.

In this funny video, we have two of our middle sons joining us with a good German friend of ours. We hope you enjoy this video with magic card tricks and a fun interview – all speaking in German!

We took another trip to the Austrian Alps, but we went skiing among many other fun, family activities this time. We stayed at a Kinderhotel for a second time and loved every minute of our winter vacation.

Since we moved to Germany in 2021, we have yet to share a video about why we chose this country specifically. Find out why we moved our family of six to Germany.

Moving abroad to any foreign country is hard, especially if you have little ones with you as we did. And while life in Germany was difficult when we first got here, a year later, we’re now able to look back and laugh, and what was once hard, is now easy!
