Josh and Kalie from ExpatsEverywhere asked their Patrons on Patreon what they wanted to see them do on their Christmas travels. They voted to explore Mannheim, Germany because there have been some pretty funny headlines about it and how it is supposedly the city of everything. Unfortunately they only have 24 hours to be there and have to figure out if it really is the city of everything in this short time period. What do they see? Do they get to all of the numbers on the map? Do they think it's the city of everything? Join them on this adventure!

I’m a native Californian and I live and grew up here in Mannheim (there used to be way more Americans here, back when we still had all the military installations). Next time you guys pass by, I’d love to show you around. Not just Mannheim but also the surrounding area like Heidelberg etc. The car was invented here (by Carl Benz) as well as what’s considered to be the first bicycle, so there’s actually a lot of history. Edit: and you guys really did smell chocolate lol, we have a chocolate factory in Jungbusch.

@ExpatsEverywhere 2 года назад

Ahhh! We knew it! It had to be chocolate. Mannheim seemed pretty cool. It would be nice to spend more time there and be shown around by a local. - Josh & Kalie

A really nice video. I´m from Mannheim and i must say, Mannheim is much more then in the video see. I miss the spirit of the town and the magic of "multi kulti". One day is not enough for this great city.

@ExpatsEverywhere 2 года назад

Thanks, Michael. Yes, we certainly get it. There's wayyyyy more. It's all we could capture with sunset at 4:30 and a toddler while also maintaining a theme. We'd actually like to go back. It was a fun little stop over to break up our train journey from Luxembourg to Frankfurt. - Josh & Kalie

@alistairthorn1122 Год назад

Mannheim is probably my favourite place outside of the UK. Go over every year for a couple of hockey games. Its not an immediately obvious tourist city, but there's plenty to see and do. A great place for a long weekend because of the places that are only a short train journey away. Day trip to Heidelberg is a must, but nothing comes close to my pre-match hockey routine. Food in Murphy's Law. Tram from Tattersall to SAP Arena. Get your standing spot in the stehplatz and (hopefully) cheer Die Adler to victory. The people of Mannheim have always been fantastic when I've been over for hockey. Loads of soccer options in the area and pro handball too. Just a brilliant place to visit.

@rosemimi973 Месяц назад

Mannheim is my little London. The vibe is pretty similar.

@rdix2501 2 года назад

Great teamwork as usual. That is a ton of stops in small amount of time. I have never heard of that town. Maybe on the next trip can you visit on the inside of some of the places.

@ExpatsEverywhere 2 года назад

Thank you, Robert. It really was. Stuff was really close together and truth be told, without a toddler and with a full day starting at let's say 9 am in the city, we could and have would have gone in most things. - Josh & Kalie

good video, good documenting, looks a industrial city very grey, not very interesting at least not far from any other general big city I guess on my terms... travel for me knowing is good but interesting is even some more, but well sometimes we go to places like this out of curiosity...stay safe and thank you for the video I watched it all as almost everytime all your videos.... happy new year for you three. regards.

Mannheim has a huge history. It is the capital of the electoral palastine with its palace. Also, it is the city where the automobile and the bicycle was invented. There is a lot of history to be discovered. I invite you to get here and get your own picture of this lovely place.

@mmproductions5718 2 года назад

Guys, Manheim seems pretty dull. I have been only once there and would never fly to get there for 24 hours. Another thing, if the trip took place after 25 December, you should check out the covid restrictions in Germany for people coming from Portugal (especially the little one/quarentine of at least 5 days). Stay safe.

Eating dinner in one's room.. that's what living in or visiting Germany means until this horrific health pass regime is finally overthrown.

@ExpatsEverywhere 2 года назад

You know, we didn't really run into any issues in Frankfurt except for the fact that we were there during the holiday period where things shutdown from midday on the 24th and didn't reopen until Monday or Tuesday in some cases. We were turned away in Koblenz as we tried to go to a restaurant near the train station and we didn't have a covid test along with our vaccine. The problem in Mannheim is that we were so full from the late lunch that we didn't need a full dinner and we think we misunderstood the signs on the door that we just need to show proof of vaccine or letter of recovery and not also the PCR test. 😅 - Josh & Kalie
