Germans are often one the most stereotyped people in the world. They're rude, over-organized, and wear Lederhosen 365 days a year. WHAT?!
Similar to many thinking that Canadians live in igloos 😂 ... I'm here to tell you, most stereotypes are simply just not true. Actually, some stereotypes are entirely opposite and also some of the reasons I think Germans are some of the sexiest people on earth! 😉

ABOUT ME
Hey there, I’m Jenna! A Canadian who has been living in Germany since 2014 and sharing my experiences ever since. 🇩🇪
Like many, I had a difficult time relocating - all the paperwork, making sure I wasn’t getting scammed, finding a flat, a phone plan, a job, etc. So, I took it slowly, documented all my learnings along the way, and partnered up with experts in every field to help others avoid making the same mistakes I did.
Let’s look at it as… PAVING THE WAY FOR NEW EXPATS TO SAVE TIME & MONEY! I built up www.lifeinduesseldorf.com to help ALL expats living in Düsseldorf make the best out of their lives, and then soon realized a lot of the content I was sharing was helpful for all expats living in Germany.
So I built an entirely online program that helps expats from ALL OVER THE WORLD relocate to Germany easily - while also helping them save thousands of euros!
... and now I’m bringing it all to RU-vid! ♥️

We have "Schmetterling" because our butter has no flies.

@LadyB777 2 года назад

In the olden days butter used to be called Schmette in German, or at least in some areas of Germany and apparently when making butter from milk the traditional way the smell attracts butterflies and suddenly it all makes sense...

@tranquilthoughts7233 Год назад

@@LadyB777 What you said is pretty much accurate. Some minor corrections though. Butter actually was called Butter even back then. It's that during the process of making butter in a butter barrel some very fine mist of essentially pure fat would settle along the rim of the butter barrel. And it was this layer of very fine fat that was called "Schmett" and that was what attracted the butterflies. They came and settled on the rim to eat the "Schmett". Their connection to butter is also the reason for their english name by the way. There's also the middle age idea that butterflies are actually transformed witches that came to steal butter^^

Your English is not bad :))) English is not my language, either....but I try to improve it all the time. I would like to ask you a question...because you are German...and my question is about German people and their habits, their feelings... Then, when the German person writes me often: 'Liebe Margaret" is it something more than they just like me??? Once, they also texted me: "Oh Honey, you can"... Or is that possible they talk that way to their friends and that ONLY being ''nice'' ?? We know each other for around 1 month time only but I feel very, very connected to them on an energetic level - my German is like beginning and I am not able to say many things, I practice that language in the conversation only for 5 months and I know it is getting better and better but it is difficult for me (many long words and prononcuation is also difficult and I make a mess with a grammar) so we cant understand each other too much when speaking but we are always very very close physically when shoping for example....and we write (using Translator) often. How to check their feelings towards me?? I wouldnt like to ask directly uber das.... :)

I think that’s a very German thing to do as well. Other nationalities embrace their accents, or at least don’t care. But Germans want to be perfect. For the past 5 years I’ve been living in Australia; Scotland and New Zealand and the entire time I felt deeply offended if someone told me my German accent was strong. I tried everything to get rid of it, nothing worked. Now I realized that accents make us special, I find them interesting with other nationalities so why do we have such a problem with our own accent? Since then a lot of people told me they liked my accent. it was nice to realize that it’s ok to keep it and nothing to be ashamed of

After all, any language can sound harsh or aggressive depending on how you speak it, how you emphasize words. If I get upset in French and explain something angry, it sounds different too.

@RustyDust101 2 года назад

Here I have to agree with one of the best things coming from Matrix 2: when you curse in French it is the audible equivalent of wiping your butt with silk. It still sounds so smooth and velvety, compared to some other languages (and that's me as a German looking at German, not in a proud way, but simply acknowledging facts). German does sound harsher, compared to French, even when both are spoken in anger. But then, Arabic sounds (at least to my ears) as if somebody is declaring war for slandering your religion even when they are simply asking for the time and wishing you a good day. So, meh, maybe it's just my own preconceptions coming to the forefront. (shrug)

@tomdriver6733 2 года назад

@51pinn 2 года назад

You should hear Spanish in Spain and Greek in Greece. Those languages sound really harsh. The German, we speak in Germany every day is far away from the sound you know from Nazi movies.Listen when German actors recite german poems and pay attention to the intonation. Then you will find that German can be much more than the command language in a barrack.

@mcj084 2 года назад

Hi Jenna, I just found your channel and have to agree with so much of what you said, not only of Germans but about Canadians. I’m Canadian born to German parents, born & raised in Toronto - an incredibly multicultural city - and I have an aunt in Düsseldorf! Dress, grooming and manners are all huge subjects on their own. Sometimes culture plays a role, especially if it’s “stable” and has its own identity. If it’s more dynamic, then I think there are so many international influences that the easiest thing for most people to do is to be more casual and neutral. Manners shouldn’t be forgotten, but it also makes those who open doors, for example, stand out from the majority. We all should be the best we can be and set the best examples of ourselves to others. Hmmm, make that 25,001. Tschüss 😉

@kreativuntermdach7351 2 года назад

I guess with that door-opening thing Americans and Canadians took the turn to: "If men and women are the same, then nobody should open the door for them!" And europeans went for "If men and women are the same, men can have open doors, too!". Cause where I live, just about everyone gets an opened door, only depending on who arrived first or has the heavier/more cumbersome load to carry.

I believe that many more people already recognized you on the street. Since you found a niche for your type of videos which attract mostly a very specific type of viewer (I would say age 20-40 and interested in intercultural exchange/English-speaking content), I would dare to say that many people are just leaving you alone. Because we tend to accept the privacy of people more. I saw many famous people in Cologne, but I never found the reason to speak to them. And that's because they eat (Café/Restaurant), were already speaking with people or shopping. This is their free time, I can accept this and won't invade their private life in those occasions. I once met a famous comedy actor after a concert. Since this concert was from a RU-vid Band and we two were more one of the very few older people in the crowd, I was interested in how he found the Band. It was after the concert, so I was not stopping him from enjoying the music, and it was cool for him, I especially asked that before. And I believe that this is your typical type of viewer here, since you have very specific viewers. Of course: If you were to be younger or had like more "generic" content (Make-Up, gaming) you definitely would have more viewers who tend to "shit" on your privacy. If that was the case, you would, sooner or later, tend to not like these meetings on the street. In the end, if that happens just every once in a while, you're cool with that and the people respect your privacy otherwise (or after a nice No) then I believe you: It is kind of a rewarding feeling to get recognized (after all the work you put into your content). ;)

Oh you are in Düsseldorf? Well as a single 20 year old male I can assure you that's the right town for parenting, compared to berlin for an example, as it's impossible for me to find somebody my age around Wersten, the only place where young people go to is the Altstadt and that's quite a harsh place to meet someone on the weekends.

My husband is German and I am Canadian. Been to Germany every year for 10 years. I personally don’t find a German accent as attractive as a South American accent but that is just preference. The german people I have met are forward which could come across rude in our culture. I will say the german people I know put a lot into their appearance, no sweat pants out of the house. Women get dolled up, men are clean shaven and clean cut. I met some people who loved our Canadian accent, I was thinking, I don’t have an accent or do I? There is a lot of structure in German living and that is admirable, we tend to lack that structure in Canada but then again it depends on how you were raised.

@NR-tw2jc 2 года назад

Lets see how long the romantic / gentleman will "survive". In my opinion its just like being nice and friendly. Already had a german girl who said "you don`t need to open the door for me. I can do it by myself!". I think something like that is funny (or sad - not sure). Sure she can open the door - why shouldn`t she. Actually I also hold the door open for other men, if they are close to me...

@lifeingermany_ 2 года назад

Haha well the romance didn’t last long with my husband 🤣🤣 no more door holding! But you’re right … for women and men, it’s nice to do it in general!

@barbsmart7373 Год назад

Kia ora, I think German women must be missing something awesome. In New Zealand, men often treat women as special and give them very respectful, helpful, giving treatment. They open the door for us, let us be served first and so on. Kiwi men love helping women. So do women, if they are able but that is a basic thing. Kiwis love to help others, to help anyone. I read a comment here that Germans also do that. But I find the German level of kindness is very, limited. It appears that Germans are very exclusive. Many don't seem to care about how newcomers feel. It is always hard when people are new, so some inclusion would be great. Even friendly greetings would help. It could be actions, words and nonverbal connection. I could say a lot more, but that is a little of the perspective of someone from a country where all relationships can have a friendly, welcoming feel about them. Us and Aussies call eachother "mate", especially men. Kiwis with some Maori influence in their Ives are more likely to say "Bro", or it could be "Brother" or "Sister". Groups often have a family feel about them, that is usually a Maori influence. Another Maori influence is huge generosity and caring. Visitors are well looked after. I am referring to strangers. One of the things I have heard a lot in different parts of NZ is "Are you okay?" The Maori I find, give huge amounts of money to people in need. A maori worker handed a $100 note to my son once. He was given money many times. Poor people or people who could well be homeless can be given food or money. Maori are incredibly generous with their time S we. Pacific Island people are much the same. Tikanga Maori is coming back to this place. That is, the Maori way of operating. I found the Anzac spirit in NZ is awesome. That is helping mates or giving anyone a helping hand. But the Maori people have their conduct on a whole higher level. They are staunch and protective. I think the Kiwi thing of opening doors and treating women as special is also a protective way of being. I hope this chivalry is never ruined by egotistical feminists down here. Maori people have different divisions. With the first sign of any aging, say around 50, young people are helpful towards older women. The rangatira stand up for the elder, offer to carry heavy items and so on. Age is very respected.

Since I spent most of my teens in Louisiana, my english has no german accent, but a southern accent. I guess that's the opposite of attractive 😁

@michelbeauloye4269 2 года назад

Don't worry about your Southern accent. It can be very sexy too, believe me. I spent 6 months in Lafayette a couple of years ago (trying to) teaching French to Cajun kids and adults. Cajun French is difficult to understand for a standard French speaker, but when speaking English, it is so lovely and so "old fashion". Take care and be proud of your accent, it is part of your personality.

I perfectly understand why your german husband finds you attraktive. Because you don´t look like the stereotype of a canadian woman - AT ALL! Honestly, not even close. You look more like a european lady like from italy or spain. And combined with your behaviour and language, this matches really good to what a german guys mate should be/look like. And yeah, we german guys are open minded also when it comes to raising kids, having a family, being a dad. But keep in mind, this only works if you have the right mate at your side who you can share the tasks with. If you would be a dumnut kinda girl, that sharing tasks thing wouldn´t work. So, all the best wishes from south-west Germany to you guys and I hope you stay safe and fine!

Interesting video. Would agree with most of it. For the longest time, I thought I was a weirdo for liking German accents, and when Germans speak English. I’m from the United States and my husband is from Northern Germany. Also having a Cuban background, I really do not like the.machismo stuff. Even the way we met was weird because it was originally with no partner seeking. All I was looking for at the time was someone with whom I could type in German. And unfolded from there, I had interest in studying in Germany for a long time. Eventually did and got my degree in music education.
