Our final goodbye to Germany 🥺 + life abroad in Europe!! (This is what Germany taught us) 

You love Germany ... and you can be sure, Germany loves you too!

We will miss you in Germany. Go on being so open to other cultures and you will succeed everywhere.

Danke, dass Ihr auch in schwierigen Zeiten ein so positives Bild von Deutschland in die Welt tragt! Thank you very much, that you bring such a positive view on Germany to the world despite the difficult times. Modern times provide so many opportunities to practise German, even from Japan. Maybe some German films on TV, especially for children. Or an online course. Or you keep in contact with your friends in Germany via video calls. But of course, enjoy your time in Japan as well. I guess, learning Japanese is even more challenging. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year for all of you!

Lieber Tanner, liebe Risa, Willa und Noa, ich folge euch von Anfang an.. Und jetzt ist es, als ob man gute Freunde verliert 😢❤ Es war immer schön, bei euren Abenteuern und Erlebnissen dabei gewesen zu sein, das Aufwachsen von Willa zu sehen und bei der Geburt von Noa dabei gewesen sein zu dürfen. Danke für s Mitnehmen ❤ Vergesst uns nicht und ganz viel Glück auf eurem neuen Weg🍀🍀

Ich umarme Euch ❤ alles erdenklich Gute für Eure Familie

Auf wiedersehen! Alles Gute für Euch vier!

Nehmt den Frieden in Euren Herzen mit, egal wohin der Wind Euch weht.😢😊

Schön dass es Euch in Deutschland so gut gefallen hat!

Auf Wiedersehen! Kommt zurück! Have a great stay in Japan!

Thank you for seeing my own country from a different perspective.❤

YOU guys have a right to keep some of your life private. YOU have that right. But I for one, thank you for sharing what you have . Thank you for all the awesome vids . Cannot wait for the vids from Japan. Many blessings to all of you and stay safe !!!!

Hallo ihr vier, es war so schön euch auf eurer Entdeckungsreise durch Deutschland und Europa zuzusehen 😊 ich freue mich für euch, dass ihr so wertvolle Erfahrungen für euch machen konntet! Alles Gute für den Start in Japan❤

I hope you all are okay and that the little ones didn't get too frightened by the ground moving in those earthquakes! I understand that they were centered in to the northwest of Tokyo but I can't imagine that you all didn't feel something! I'm sorry I didn't mention the probability of earthquakes when talking about venturing in Japan but hopefully your new neighbors will share with you how they prepare themselves for earthquakes and tsunamis! Take care and please post when you are able!

You are so adorable. Thank you for your beautiful words! We will miss you here in Germany! I will follow you to Japan on YT. Love from Hamburg 🥰🙏🩵💙🧡😘🤗🤗

You were so lucky living at a nice place in Germany. I would love to live in such a place!

i'm not going to lie.. but this was heartbreaking to watch... because i can safely say that i watched every video that got featured in that highlight reel. man, i am really lost for words. actually speechless :/

I have been following you from the beginning, and thoroughly enjoyed watching your family grow and adventure..thank you for taking me along, excited to see what Japan has to offer you…Merry Christmas!!

Oh, such nice words. I wish you the best for your future.

I am really looking forward for the Japan content. This will be interesting.

Wünsche Euch eine schöne Weihnachtszeit 🎄 in Japan und einen guten Rutsch ins aufregende neue Jahr! 🎊 Bis bald! 🙂

Tolles letztes Video aus good old deutschläänd. Viel Erfolg in Japan, ich werde euren Weg weiter verfolgen und bin schon gespannt, welche Abenteuer und Erfahrungen ihr dort machen werdet. Der Vergleich USA, GER, JAP wird spannend!

Bye bye ! We love you , hope you will come for a visit!

Merry Christmas guys, I hope you will have a great time over there in Japan. For now, good bye and see you again. 😉

The one before was already emotional. You guys are so cute ! I like as you sad that you have developed so much. To find it out yourself is important. I' m looking forward to be at your side in Japan 😊. Take care and all the best.

I hope Japan treats you well🖤 But please be sure we are here waiting to say:“Willkommen zurück!“ (welcome back) Until then, thanks for letting us join your experience 😌

Hope you´ll be back as soon as possible! ❤

Good bye! It was a blessing to have had you here. Have a good time in Japan and don't forget that you are always welcome back in Germany! Byyyeee!

Schön, dass es euch hier so gut gefallen hat! Viel Spaß und gutes Gelingen in Japan. Frohe Weihnachten und guten Rutsch ins neue Jahr! Schöne Grüße aus dem oberbayerischen München ❤ Pfiat eich Gott und auf Wiederschauen!

Well I bet you that you will be back in Germany sooner than you can imagine. Simply because of the children who can grow up in Germany in a more child-friendly and free manner without worries and fears. You have more German values in you that you quickly become “homesick” for Germany. The serenity and work life balance are much healthier here in Germany than in Japan.

What a wonderful video! Thank you for the kind words about Germany. I wish you the best arrival in Japan and I'm already excited for the first Japan video!!

Sniff,😢 sorry to see you go. It was fabulous having you here. Don't forget us. You have a place in our hearts. Grüße aus Hamburg an Euch vier.

imho, Germany is probably the most beautiful country in all of Europe. Hope ya'll visit again some day.

This one made me sob like a baby. I want to thank you so much for sharing ur loving beautiful life with me. I'm always home and I love beautiful places. Thank you so much, may God bless your family and all you do. ❤

By virtue of my Bavarian origin, I hereby declare the Tanner family to honourary Bavarians with all rights and obligations.... Amen😢

Thank you for taking us along and showing us our home through fresh eyes! It was a blast to see you guys experience Europe, its foods, landscapes and cultures and to see your little family grow! We're here if you ever want to come back to your second home. I wish you happy and peaceful holidays and a great start into the new year and new adventure. I traveled Japan for two weeks in October and absolutely loved it, but it is VERY different then Germany. I guess in a way, Germany was a good excercise to adapt to a new culture that is only marginally different from the US- now you get the full deal! I'm looking forward to watching you discover this beautiful country and culture and to see where this all leads you. Not goodbye- Auf Wiedersehen!

Probably not understandable????? Very good, just a little accent, which is just fine and normal. keep your skills, and expand, the worst of getting in is behind you!! That would be a big bib lost, if getting forgotten.Thank you both for your open mindness, and your ability to see new things , habits and understanding of foreign culture. and understanding the sense behind it. Good journey and good luck!!

Es war eine tolle Zeit mit euch hier! Und ich hoffe, dass ihr eines Tages wieder kommt! Bin gespannt wie es weitergehen wird.

Ihr Lieben. Ihr habt hier so unfassbar viel - komprimiert erleben dürfen. Einfach nur wunderschön. Schön das wir daran teilhaben durften. Wir wünschen Euch auf allen Euren Wegen - von ❤alles Glück, Gesundheit und insbesondere Gottes reichen Segen. Auf Wiedersehen… irgendwann wieder in good old Germany. God bless you all.

Viel Glück und kommt bald wieder❤

Now they are gone away. Feels sad but also happy for yourself cos you have the chance to face new challenges and take some adventures. Well, great footage compilation of the time and travel here and from Germany. Amazing to see how Willa is growing up so fast and even Noa already is able to walk on her own. Good bye my first and only yt family. Merry Christmas. All the best for your future in a new and different world. Many thanks for the time I could share having you here in Germany. Cu in your next video. Auf Wiedersehen.

Well done on the German Tanner! Wishing you guys a safe and happy Christmas. Oh, and fun fact: my career has been in child development and "Daa" sounds develop before "Maa" sounds in babies. So yeah, most babies will say dada first😂 Everyone I know that has been to Japan has loved it. Japan has stunning nature too, and I'm 100% sure you'll find it and enjoy it to the fullest!❤Happy travels!

Heartbreaking, so emotional

Ich wünsche euch eine gute Zeit in Japan. Vielleicht führt ihr die Vlogs in Japan fort. 😊 wäre cool. Ich erinnere mich noch an die ersten Videos von eurer Ankunft in Deutschland. Die Zeit vergeht schnell. Auf wiedersehen 🇩🇪

We will miss you ❤️

German will miss you. As the saying goes „Man sieht sich immer zweimal im Leben!“ Cant wait to see your Japanese stuff, going in March next year so I’m looking forward to your view and recommendations 🤭

Sad to see you go. But also happy for you and your dream of a destination you are going to see. And i'm also curios about what your perspective and insights will be on Japan. So it's not a "good bye", it's definitely "Auf Wiedersehen!"

Watching Willa riding the bike brings back memories of me learning how to ride a bike in Germany when I was a little but older than her. And watching you guys boarding the plane to go to Japan brings back so many memories of the times when my Family moved from assignment to assignment. On the funnier side, my sister's first word was the four letter S-Word. My mom and her were in the kitchen one day and my sister knocked a bowl of cheerios off the high chair. She looked at my mom, smiled and went "four letter S-Word!!!!!" I hope that you guys get to make it back to Germany, but in the meantime enjoy your experiences in Japan. Take Care and Merry Christmas!

Looking forward to your experiences "abroad". Enjoy the holidays and keep your good memories.

First of all thanks for sharing all these great videos with us! You have been perfect ambassadors for the US who reminds us not all americans are insane 😉 I wish you guys all the best from Ansbach, Franconia. ❤ Maybe Willa will have a student exchange in Germany in a few years. Would be perfect. She is supercute 🥰 Good luck in Japan, Germany will miss you 👍🏼

Someone's cutting onions in here😢 It was a pleasure to have you here in Germany and now have a wonderful start in Japan. Hope to hear from you so soon! Merry Christmas & a very happy new year!!!!

Jederzeit seit ihr willkommen in Deutschland 🇩🇪 😢

Aawww, you brought tears to my eyes! What a wonderful video. Thank you so much for your enthusiasm and your open mind!! Germany loves you too ❤ Hope you had a safe trip to Tokyo. I’m looking forward to your Japan videos. Stay awesome!

lol You guys have the reverse story of me. I'm an American that used to live in Japan, and now I'm on my way to Germany. I lived in rural Japan though. You guys are going to have the best adventure in Japan! Enjoy!

Unbelievable, I have watched you since the beginning of your German journey! Wish you all the best! ;)

Auf Wiedersehen. Habt einen guten Start in Japan und ebenfalls so gute Erfahrungen wie in Deuschland. Viel Erfolg. 🍀

Auf Wiedersehen und einen guten Start in Japan 🇯🇵, ich wünsche euch alles liebe und gute, bleibt Gesund und habt ein schönes Leben am anderen Ende der Welt 🌍 Ich wünsche euch ein wunderschönes Weihnachtsfest und einen guten Rutsch ins neue Jahr 🎉 Ganz liebe Grüße 🖖

we dont know eachother, but I'm crying as if we've been friends forever. x___x thank you for all your positive vibes, the role model family you turned to be, who remembers us germans about all the good things we should appreciate in our country. will miss you!

All the best for you guys!! Take care. It was/is such a great gift, following you and seeing you exploring Germany and Europe. So curious to see and explore your time in Japan. Take care. Blessings and lots of love! ❤❤❤

I was so confused when Willa from 2-3 years ago appeared on screen. I thought, “What’s going on? Noa looked more like mom a minute ago and now she looks like dad. What happened?" And then I realized it's Willa 😅 It's amazing that one of your children looks like each parent

… and we love YOU ❤

❤..... Only ❤

5:55----GOOSEBUMPS. Wish you guys so much luck!

Wow you lived the Dream. I would love a home surrounded by fields and woods.

At least you will have a better experience with Japanes trains. A few seconds delay means the engineer will be called on the carpet. And not meaning bonusses for upper management. All the best! Sayonara!

Auf Wiedersehen ❤❤

Have a lovely time in Japan, too!

Take care and hopefully you are coming back for a Holiday

Viel Glück und Auf Wiedersehen 🙋‍♂️

It was nice we had you here :)

great video. Emotional and the collage of all your trips made me again aware to be blessed to live in the heart of Europe with all those options to travel easily by train, car or plane. I've been from Greece to Portugal and Northern Norway.. not everywhere but i've seen a lot and those pictures reminded where i still need to go soon. I passed the Dolomiten by on my way to Italy so many times, I am almost ashamed to admit i never have been stopping by once... shame on me. Those pictures were breathtakingly beautiful. Scotland and Iceland are high on my to do list as well. So Germany kept you a day longer... a sign ?? ;-) we wouldn't wanna let you go.. As i saw you exploring Europe and got no clue about life in Japan, I am actually pretty excited to see how you gonna adapt to this culture which many so either love it or got difficulties with. There is a Japanese guy on youtube reels who does shorts with foreigners and Japanese people about Japan and cultural differences and how foreigners, either tourists or people who live in Japan, sometimes for many years, evaluate life in Japan. I've been watching it for months now, without knowing you will end up in Japan, so i'm curious to see how you're doing. It will definitely an experience to be excited to, an adventure.Hope you're doing fine and only miss Europe, when the time in Japan is over... All the best for the holidays and 2024 !

You may me cry. ❤ Can’t wait to see the next chapter in your life . Merry Christmas .

The music fits perfectly! 🥲

Looks. Like you guys had a good time in germany is on my bucket list hoping to visit it one day

It was a pleasure, to have you all here in Germany, your reports were always very informativ, your kindness is awsome.

We will miss you

Merry Christmas!

Alles Gute für euch. Komisch ohne Euch zu kennen ist es fast wie Abschied von guten Freunden zu nehmen. Eure Erfahrungen waren nicht nur schön und lustig anzusehen, sondern ich finde man lernt auch selber wie schön Deutschland doch ist und lernt dankbar zu sein für Sachen die man als so normal ansieht. Viel Glück Euch in Japan.

Our ❤s are with you, wherever you go.

Beautiful sharing ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Best of luck ❤! Christy and I will continue to pray for your happiness on your new journey.

Good luck for your time in Japan!

Good luck, I will follow your new adventures

Amazing Video!!

Excited to follow you along your new journey. All the best !

Thank you for your many nice videos about Germany and your experiences here. I will miss it, but of course I will continue to follow you and am looking forward to your experiences in Japan. I wish you lots of luck, love and a great time in Japan. It would be nice if you don't forget Germany and the Germans and come back one day.

Hello dear Family! I am a German Woman from Hamburg and I am living in Japan since May last year (already for the third time!). So nice what you say about Germany.😊 I wish you a wonderful time in Japan! You will love this country and its people, the food and the atmosphere!! Good luck! 🙋🏼‍♀️🇯🇵🗾🍀🎄

What a fantastic tribute to your home of X number of years and I know it must pain you all to be leaving it right before Christmas. However, don't think that just because the population of Christians in Japan is tiny that Christmas gets ignored there! Quite the contrary! They love the winter holiday with loved ones celebrating their bonds with gifts! I look forward to your seeing your first impressions of your new land (and hope it won't be too long before you get to see Mt. Fuji in person instead of just from above in flight) ! You all have some of the best eye for highlighting the most photogenic sights (and foods) wherever you go! Sache are to the four of you!

Life in Japan can be pretty hard as a foreigner, especially if you don't speak the language well. Best of luck to you

I love This vlog ❤️ 😊

Thank you fore using Tinas Taxi Crew to go to munic :-) Greatings from youre drifer Peter .

"family walk" - what a nice term 🫶😊🫶🎯🤍💬

Merry Christmas to you! I hope Japan can offer you a a good Christmas time 🎄🎅🏼

We will miss you here in Germany. Excited for your new adventures from Japan. Merry Christmas and all the best for 2024
