Jeeez, man, I can't stand this channel without your main voice !!! By the likes I can see, that people don't care what is what, they are probably hypnotized, but I'm totally scared to lose the voice of Berlin ! If you promise come back to Berlin, I promise you to bring very tasty fresh Norwegian bread !
Your video brings back fond memories from my youth - my father was stationed in West Berlin from 81-88 with Pan Am. I lived in Wansee, Zelendorf, Tegel - very briefly, and Nickolasee (sp?) spent a lot of time in Dahlem - as an American preteen to late Teen - West Berlin was a city I always felt safe in - with my fathers job - i got to travel the world - traveling to East Berlin back in the day - was terrifying - did not enjoy being watched everywhere I went - funny story - I was working last week in an Armored Car Facility and was followed around the same way - I joked with the guard that I had not been followed around the same way since being in East Berlin in the mid 80's - he just smiled and nodded and continued doing his job. I don't know how much money was around but lets pretend it was lots (where it was) - he was doing his job - very well so I never felt intimidated - unlike going thru Checkpoint Charlie. No Spy-Movie has ever conveyed the "Fear" of going thru that checkpoint!
This was simply a great presentation. Very interesting, informative, and educational. The diversity and variety of the many districts is so very cool and truly makes Berlin such a unique place!
Spandau at last. This is the best of the series. Very pretty places, interesting people, some German language lessons, and your stand-in host did a great job. 👍
Das war wieder ein fantastisches Video. Just when I think I'm getting a handle on Berlin, you manage to hit me with an avalanche of even more great things to see. My wife and I love spending time in northern Germany and try to carve out a few days in Berlin during out stays. Our list of must see places for next year is filling up quickly. Vielen Dank!
Lovely to see other parts of Berlin, one of my favorite cities in Europe. I frequently travel to Berlin almost every year but always stayed near around Wedding. ❤❤❤❤
Lived in Berlin for 3 years back in the 80s. Best time of my life! Just pick a u-bahn station and go. Each district is different and always people to party and smoke some great hash!
Always love these videos! Any chance you'll branch out and give brief overviews of living in other German cities and their neighborhoods? I know your heart lies in Berlin but as an outsider it's been thrilling seeing Berlin and Germany through your videos.
I'm living in Zehlendorf, Berlin. I dont feel I live the life of a berliner, because so remote location. But one day, hopefully, I'll manage to get apartment inside the ring and start living and breathing life of Berlin.
I live in the ring and my goal is to live outside of berlin but with the abilty to have an s bahn that leads into the ring within 15-30minutes. Sounds perfect
Thank you for recording these videos! I randomly stumbled on these videos when I was searching for videos on living in Berlin. We're planning on moving to Berlin in the next couple months and your videos have been enormously helpful
actually Siemens was found in Kreuzberg and needed then later (after getting big) a new spot. Its also one of the example when industry and housing for workers were thought together (the binding to a company was much closer back then. Bayer Leverkusen and many others are other examples of this combination of an old industrial company with an own kind of destrict/infrastructure for everything).
@@Bluesky35102 must not, I was on purpose making it a bit high, first and foremost its difficult to find a apartment here and if you do if will probably be not very cheap, can be 1000€/cold in the worst case must not be
If you revisit the southwest, would love to give you some pointers on the Litcherfelde Sud&Ost area. A mix of suburbs, can be very blue collar, and due to state housing and lower prices---can be very culturally diverse. It has charm and some grit. As I walk along the Mauerweg with all the other introverted nature like folk that like to live out in the quiet, can be jarring to think the idyllic walking path that is such a source for mental health relief was once a shooting wall.
I can see myself just outside of the ring on the west side as that is the equivalent of where I live in Cardiff and before that in Brussels. I have also lived in the inner city and didn't like it.
yes haha just dont go spreading it around. Funny thing Berliners tend to look down on Spandau and give you the looks when you say you live there while i have a whole flat for myself and pay less sometimes than that some of them are paying for a room. I lve 5 mins from Rathaus Spandau and i can reach HBF in like 10-15 mins with the regional trains@elina2800
I don't know if you check the comments almost a month agter the video drops, but I wanna ask a question. If I ever decide to move to Germany, should I expect to be harassed by people to go away? I'm from the U.S. and like the German culture, but due to some kind of immigration issue there, or the fear that I might take advantage of it's generous laws (Which as an American, I would NOT DO because honestly I'd feel guilty), I see alot of Germans online telling me not to move there in some very... inpolite ways, so to speak unless I'm basically Elon Musk in terms of successful skills. I like German, I'm willing to learn new skills, but I fear that people would just want me to go away. So would me moving to Germany really be inconsiderate of me, or am I just getting these messages from some crazies? Cuz if I ever decide to move there, I don't wanna be made into sausage pasta or something by the locals.
dont worry. despite of some stories (which exist for most countries), thats one of the least problems in reality. you can see that more like the stories between peoplle from NY vs. people from L.A. or Midwest. Such kind of for most people in the everyday irrelevant stuff. and keep in mind that you were not just one american among germans but you were part of people from all over the europe/world (thats no joke!) mixed with Germans (also from all parts of Germany) - and a high fluctuation of tourists all over the places. the rest is a big city vibe. you can always meet some guys with weird opinions (and appearances). the bigger culture shock (a real one at first) might rather be that in Germany just like in most neighbor countries people tend to be a bit more straight without 'beating round the bush' and sometimes also with facial expressions/gestures you might wrong decode. while in the US you have more this always-service smile thats less of a thing here in the hear of Europe. you have it sometimes but also all kind of other reactions. services in restaurants might not smile if you expect it and you wrongly might interpret that personal or that the person has problems with you (instead of the correct interpretation that the person is in own thoughts which have nothing to do with you, just being a bit more authentic), or some are more straight and so on. such things often especially US-americans (but actually also people from japan, south korea and many other places) have a bit to get used to. In other parts of Germany the situation is a bit different mix. In other bigger cities like Hamburg, Munich, Frankfurt etc. (Germany has actually the biggest population and most cities of any European country - except Russia (but i guess it also has less cities) you are also just one guy from elsewhere more. the rest is like always: in more remote regions its more obvous if you come from somewhere else. but as said, Germany with its neighbors is not just the domnant center of Europe with the biggest population and also the most wealthy part, but its also among the most urbanized (there are not much true 'remote/rural' regions' or better they are also much less rural and usually a bit more connected than rural regions of most other countries). means: in one way or another, almost all people arae used to meet ppl from somewhere else. of course in rather remoe region the probability is higher that it is more classic germans but they are usually quite friendly. maybe similar to more remote regions in the US (just less remote due to the bigger distances there)
Basically, if you wanna feel like you are still living in Berlin, don't move away from the ringbahn... otherwise you'll feel like you're living in Poland or in an uptight German Village 🤷🏻♂🤷🏻♀

very good video. You said nice things about every neighbourhood and the ones less good weren’t presented bad. Very well made 👍🏻
Glad you enjoyed it!
I voted Tegel or Spandau. And I like Prenzlauer Berg. This is best living spaces in my opinion
Always love these videos! Any chance you'll branch out and give brief overviews of living in other German cities and their neighborhoods? I know your heart lies in Berlin but as an outsider it's been thrilling seeing Berlin and Germany through your videos.
Guys thanks for all the effort
Our pleasure^^
I'm living in Zehlendorf, Berlin. I dont feel I live the life of a berliner, because so remote location. But one day, hopefully, I'll manage to get apartment inside the ring and start living and breathing life of Berlin.
Is it affordable
no :(
If you are planning to move out, please let me know, I would love to have your flat then. I would love to live in this area.
I live in the ring and my goal is to live outside of berlin but with the abilty to have an s bahn that leads into the ring within 15-30minutes. Sounds perfect
@@carinah2212 sure.
My grandparents lived in Lichterfelde. I've always thought, it was the end of the world. Then, my godmother moved to Gatow...

Thanks!^^ Yes there are so many great places most people don't even know about 😅
Lives in Tegel, can vouch its amazing. I moved from wedding to Tegel
You are a legend bro, you really made me consider the idea of moving to Berlin.
hope you are okay spending 1000€/cold for a one room apartment
@@keske9 Really? Even when outside the ring?
@@Bluesky35102 must not, I was on purpose making it a bit high, first and foremost its difficult to find a apartment here and if you do if will probably be not very cheap, can be 1000€/cold in the worst case must not be
Tempelhof: am I a joke to you?
dachte ich mir auch so haha
Another great video! Very informative ! Can’t wait to make my move to Berlin.
Best of luck!
Even interesting for me as a Berliner as i have spent most of my time in the east (apart from Zehlendorf and Brietzer Garten)
Oh how i like his voice.❤

WEDDING
Thank you soo much for part three
My pleasure 😄
Best place to live in Berlin probably is in one of the other Berlins. Berlin, Schleswig-Holstein or maybe Berlin, Wisconsin.
this neighborhood is one of most beautiful i ever seen, i think the prices are going to be 10m euros or more.
Anywhere if you manage to find a Flat anywhere :( I am at Potsdamer Platz :)
Still no Pankow :(
Great video...
Olympia crowd 🙌
Westend has Flatowalle 16, which I think is an interesting, beautiful structure. Tho I have unique taste 😅
Well if people want to live in the posh rich parts then fine.Up to them.But interests and hobbies are more important
Nice video.
Thanks!
bravo !
Schöneberg is the best place to live in Berlin
I can see myself just outside of the ring on the west side as that is the equivalent of where I live in Cardiff and before that in Brussels. I have also lived in the inner city and didn't like it.
4:59 the patch of grass in the middle looks like Mickey mouse
Spandau💯
Super nice video! How can we support you/ get in touched with you?
Siemensstadt 🥰
Why did you never talk about Moabit? :(
Radical when are you coming back!! 🤪 mr Bean is nice tho too.
I spotted a fellow argentinian/uruguayan drinking mate (🧉) 10:22
in spandau you can still get 1 bedroon flats for 600-700 euros
yes haha just dont go spreading it around.

Berlin is a town established by Slavic tribes. The name Berlin stems from polish word berlo which means swamp.
🇵🇹👍🏻 wunderbar 🇩🇪
Hello Adolf! 🤩
I still prefer Neu-Kölln
Bro... where is Potsdam?!
Seit wann gehört Potsdam zu Berlin,es ist die Hauptstadt von Brandenburg
praktisch aber einevbedeutungslose Differenzierung. @@aubergine1236
Guys what about Moabit? Can we get a bit mo info about Moabit? And can we also get the German guy back (no offense English guy)

You should put these places to live into a playlist. /// Du sollst diesen Plätzen wo Man wohnen kann, in eine Play-Liste.
