I was born and raised in Celle. I love it there. It will always be home. I hope you had a great time!
It's so weird to see my hometown on TH-cam🙈 greetings from Celle❤
Thanks Julia! You have a beautiful hometown!
Right? Im from Winsen but this and the neue Rathaus Horror story is the most recognition i've ever seen given to us 😂
I was born here and still living here, I'ts pretty cozy and i really like living here. But i always wonder why we have so much torism, since i never thought our little Town is any special. Nice to see People enjoy their Travel here ^^
Thanks Rosaria! We really enjoyed visiting!
Haha witzig, genau das selbe hab ich mir auch gedacht! ^^ Ich lebe jetzt schon 13 Jahre nicht mehr in Celle, aber ich komme immer wieder liebend gerne zurück!
I’ve lived half my life in london and half in Celle. Initially the slower pace can drive a city boy a little nuts... but after a while you begin to appreciate the many benefits of this beautiful town, delightful forests and countryside and warm hearted people.
Awesome seeing your perspective, which was a fair representation of a whistle stop tour.
Thank you very much! I wish we had a little more time to visit and take it all in.

Video title: ROULADE
Meine schöne Stadt.. Grüße von einem Flüchtling an ihre lieben Menschen🌹🌹🌹
What a pleasure to see you guys feature Celle, the home of some friends we plan on visiting next week. 😊
We learned something new about the sights. Great job and looking forward to the next featured town.
Such a scenic view looks great.
Taking shots is savoring life intensely, every hundredth of a second
Impressive video.
Ratzeputz was always a favourite of the soldiers of the British Army of the Rhine stationed in Celle. Alter Provisor is a heart warming health drink. I've been visiting for 70 years.
This is my 2nd time watching your video , I was born in Celle but left when I was very young , I have gone back to visit as a teen and again planned a trip in 2020 until the pandemic happened , thank you for taking me there , it was wonderful to see and made me think of my family there xoxo
Thanks Monica! Hope you can get a chance to revisit soon.
So glad your both back out there exploring! Thanks for another great series!
Thank you so much Julie!
Hello to you both,

Hy

It sure was! We really enjoyed visiting medieval towns on this trip.
Wonderful video. Thanks. Y sí, en Europa se brinda mirando a los ojos!! 🙃🙃🙃🙃
Love the facades of the houses in Germany.
Great job, on another video!

Thank you! Cheers!
I am so happy that you enjoy your travel in Germany. And I do learn so much about cities I have never been yet in my own country. ❤❤❤
Yea Celle is a really pretty town and I love how is looks and actually I can see Celle every school day bc I go in the school from Celle in German is the school name IGS Celle is a Really nice school
That is great to hear!
Gorgeous town. TFS
Thanks! It sure is!
Me ha encantado. Con vosotros viajar es especial.
You guys really make us want to visit Celle!
That is great to hear Barbara! Highly recommend it!
Another great video
Thanks Todd!
Bauhaus! Qué bueno es ver su estilo. Fue revolucionario. Gracias por toda la información sobre la ciudad. A Audrey se la ve muy europea
Came here via the BA videos as we heading there Thu but noticed this Celle one. We lived here from 6 to 13 via the British Army and this video brought back a load of fond memories.
Thanks David! We just loved visiting. Have you revisited since you left?
@@samuelandaudrey Afraid not - we were due to head back in 2020, but, well, you know. You likely cannot see the stamp of the Army now there but massive amounts of the city outskirts were used as barracks and the "Roundhouse" in the centre used to be the Naafi, cinema and shopping centre for families. Your pronunciation of “Sellay” though was brill ;-)
I was born in Celle and still living here!! And I love my town
Fantastic to hear!
Loved the video as per usual. I think you can make almost anything (which would otherwise be revolting to most) taste great with enough seasonings and especially in the case of Boeuf Tartare which my parents introduced to us when we were kids We all liked it.. We had it first at home a few times when my mother made it. She doctored it up with lots of capers, onions and spices and probably celery, relish and garlic; then ground it up and spread it on miniature rye bread slices. I also had it in a fancy restaurant once and it was made similarly (ground up with complementary ingredients and flavorings) and served with french bread on the side. Even though we all liked it I've only had it those few times.
Im from Celle.
Thank u for that beautiful video about our city
THank you very much! Means a lot to us coming from a local. We loved it.
I was stationed in Germany from 85-95… Ratzeputz was a popular shot for newbie Soldiers… I wish I could find it in the states.
I’ve been there several times and loved it.. I really enjoy Restaurant Bier Akademie.. their summertime garden seating is magical.. they have the most magnificent Rohe roulade..
What a nice place to visit!!
I laugh a Lot with Audrey drinking!!🤭
Thanks Penny! Hahaha!
Omg at 13:42 I really thought an old man was taking a photo for you two for a second. I was like "aw. That's nice." 😅🤦🏼♀️
Haha! 😅📸
Hola Audery , samuel, que bonito todo lo que habeis visitado , me ha encantado, un saludo desde Valencia(España). 😘
Muchas gracias Irene!
Thanks for sharing your adventures in Celle. We have been to a number of towns up north like Stralsund, Warnemunde, Wismar, and others, but had never heard of this place. The name doesn't even look or sound German. Oh, and the Roulade? I do not think I can go there!
When I was a child we have been allowed to sit down in that Chappell. It's one of the most pretty places from my home town
That is cool to hear.
Hi, thank you for quality videos, it's a pleasure to watch them. Very professional, all these slowmo and details.. What camera or cameras you use, could you please share? Thanks!
These two do a good job
Thanks for watching, Ernest!
curry and fries wow.. nice... RED wine would be nice... Excellent Pannacotta..Lovely...
THank you so much Pradeep!
German castles are insanely beautiful
When I was young I would love to cut a piece of round steak off uncooked and put salt on it. So good. Also Dad and I would take ground meat and mix with egg and green pepper and onion in it and put on a sandwich. I would not do that today with all the stuff they put in meat.Thank you for sharing. Beautiful places I am of german decent. My grandparents came over to us from Germany, My great grandfather was a mayor of Baden Baden. My brother was in the army over there in 1960. He loved it.
That is amazing to hear about your Grandfather!
Hi guys!!! Beautiful city!!! When did you visit it? Congrats!! Please, more food videos!!!
Thanks Geo. We visited just last month. There will be more food videos coming up a bit later in the series!
I’m original from celle, so I’m an cellenser. In my youth the downtown was very busy at all time. We had about 5 discotheques just in the middle of the town and a very high count of pubs. There where three British army barracks in town, so we always had some trouble in town. I had a lot of friends in Trenchard barracks through all regiments and played rugby with them.
You can get the “Rohe Rolllade” in a couple of restaurants and pubs. Thears is just a visitor trap. There are others places, I prefer. Heidegeist, ratzeputz and the old provisor are all horrible. ;-) Did you tast Celler Bier?
Thanks for sharing your experiences Stephan! We'll have to try the restaurant you recommended next time.
Na poddaszu tego zamku budowałem pomieszczenia na archiwum i bibliotekę ,latem na górze było prawie 50 stopni
So you´ve been to my home town and TH-cam told me about that. Thank you @youtube. ;-)
It´s kind of funny seeing you visiting this place and seemingly enjoy it. And I am really glad to see that you ended up at "Alter Provisor" since this truly is one oft the highlight shops in Celle. And yes, the Alter Provisor Schnaps is muuuuch better than Ratzeputz. But you found out about that for yourselfes. ;-)
I work here as a photographer for the daily newspaper (Cellesche Zeitung) and visited all the shown places for more than one time, but your view at those places is quiet unique and I thank you for having people part in your voyages.
So, go on with that fine work and enjoy the rest of Germany.
Just a small hint for you: Marburg an der Lahn is my favourite town in our country and I bet you would love it. Let me know if you get there, too. ;-)
Thanks Oliver! We loved our time in Celle. Wish we had a day or two more to visit though. We'll definitely have to visit Marburg an der Lahn on our next trip! We were nearby in Leipzig.
Celle is a beautiful town with long connections with Britain, dating back to the early 18th century and the Elector of Hannover being crowned George 1. Later, following the World War 2, it became a major British garrison. I spent 3 years in Taunton Barracks (aka Heidekaserne), which was just a short walk across the French Gardens from the town centre. Coffee and cake sitting in Cafe Kiess, overlooking the main marketplace, was a regular occurrence. The barracks was subsequently handed back to the German authorities and the main building has been transformed into a most impressive new town hall (Rathaus).
Very nice place to visit! Not sure about eating the raw meat but I'd try it at the very least!
CHeers from Canada
Thanks Peter! I'm willing to be most wouldn't try it.
The moments you captured on video were priceless. The tree pose of the goose, the lovely architecture , quirky statutes ,castle and great food. Northern Germany certainly has it's charms. Thank you for taking us along. Sending you lots of love. 😍😍 Harriet and Jim from Richmond, Va.
My brothers are living in Germany and I plan yo visit them next year assuming I am not ready to travel to India yer. I will certainly try out that Provisor drink despite not being someone who consumes alcohol.
Oh and looks like you guys were there on Sep 18 based on the FC Koln vs RBL game on TV, unless it wasn't live.
Actually recently found out geese and flamingos always look like they're doing yoga because they're conserving heat. Their body's are all fluffed with feathers, but their legs are often exposed.
Ahh, good to know! 😅🦩🦆
Ratzeputz is often also fun for visitors who don't know it: Ratzeputz is then presented as a Heide-Liqueur. "Oh yes, a liqueur !!" ... and then see the horrified faces after the first sip ...!
Interesting to hear!
Celle was my home away from home in Germany. I worked for an international company that had a plant there. It was the locals favorite trick to pull, getting visitors to try Ratzeputz. It was still made there when I first visited, but had moved out by the time I last visited.
Ich bin in Celle geboren und lebe auch noch hier :)
Beautiful videos from Germany. You are near me. Greetings from the Netherlands.
Greetings Gerard! We're glad you're enjoying the videos.
I adore meat roulades 🥰
They are so tasty! Do you have them often!
@@samuelandaudrey not very often, 2,3 times in month, 🤩
Hola querida Audrey y Samuel. Que gusto verlos nuevamente viajando a diferentes países, pero por que no ponen este video en español ??? Le activo los subtitulos pero no es igual, podrían poner al inicio del video la fecha en que fue grabado, es que uno se confunde al no saber en que fecha estaban en Alemania. Un abrazo y siempre estoy esperando verlos viajar. Saludos desde México.
Hola Lupita, gracias por el comentario. También filmamos estos video en Español, así que eventualmente vamos a publicar esa versión en el otro canal - estamos publicando los últimos episodios de la serie de Nueva Escocia en este momento. Y este viaje por Alemania fue filmados el mes pasado. Saludos!
@@samuelandaudrey estaré al pendiente del viaje por Alemania en español, y el viaje a la cabaña en el día de acción de gracias, que comentó Ashley. Es un agasajo verlos. 😍🥰
The venison and sausage look good. You going to Germany’s icon dirk nowitzki hometown ? Wurzburg )
It was great!
Quick history, Celle is an ancestral home to the British House of Windsor. Queen Elizabeth has visited a few times as well as the Queen mom.
That Roulade is basically beef carpaccio rolled up. Never trie that before?
No, I guess we haven't! Thanks!
Great!
Thanks!
bach or handel once lived in zelle/celle
Wow!
Hello Sam, are you still in Germany as of 10/25/2021? Where are you going next? I am in Germany too and would love to meet you and Audrey for lunch if you are still here in Germany. Danny
Jepp Celle ist schon eine schöne Stadt... 😁 😁 😁
hey i live here. Sad u havent visited my Bakery i think u would have liked the German Baking-Style. Maybe next time i could show u around a little bit ^^6
Thanks! Cool to hear and thanks for the invitation. Where is your bakery located and the name?
@@samuelandaudrey its bakery vatter and u stood in front of it when u took the shots of the great church at the old town ^^
It’s weird to see my hometown on youtube 😮💨
We really enjoyed visiting!
Still have to go for Mettbroetchen....
Dare!
Oh, wow, we didn't come across that on a menu! I wonder if it's a regional dish or if it is eaten across the country?!
@@samuelandaudrey It's eaten across the country. to get the real thing, go to a local butcher and ask for it. It's usually not served in restaurants.
Now the deterrent: it's minced raw pork - heavily regulated though and absolutely safe to eat. Seasoning may differ from butcher to butcher.
There are a few videos about it on YT, i'd recommend the one from "bigfun an american in Germany".
Enjoyed your videos so far. You're going off the beaten path which i generaly prefer when i go on vacation.
Have fun!
@@samuelandaudrey It's more a snack than a dish.
You guys eat well. Have you been to Finland 🇫🇮?
Hi Stephen, yes, we have visited Finland twice! It was several years back, but we do have some videos on TH-cam.
@@samuelandaudrey yes thanks Samuel and Audrey. I have found your Finland content from 7yrs ago.
Oh dam it now I gotta go on a full road trip in Germany 🙄
Hope you can soon Jamie!
I live there :D
Very cool! Beautiful place!
Can you do a video on how you support your travel? Also do you speak German?
Thanks. The quick answer is our YT channels (3 of them), blogs (several) and freelance work.
Kässpötzle is the best
i eat it ones a week
Agree with you Arno! Wow, that is amazing. Wish I could do that as well...haha Need to learn how to make it at home.
Great to watch you enjoying the trip. I liked the art installations in Celle a lot. Very funny especially the guy bathing in the fountain.
I never ate a raw roulade yet, but I like tartar and italian carpaccio which meat is also very tender.
Are you still in Germany or back home? According to the soccer match which was broadcasted while you were in the pub in Celle, that visit was about 5 weeks ago.
Carpaccio German Style😄
:)
Nice
Thanks
Those were some really small wine glasses.
Yes, they kind of are!
Here's the "I'm from Celle" Button
Great to hear!
moin bruder
Do you have a strategy to staying in europe longer than 90 days or will you leave?
We did have a bit of a strategy when we used to spend most of the year on the road. We would travel within the Schengen Area and then when our time ran out, we'd travel non-Schengen countries in Europe to switch it up. And then repeat again!
next stop: Jägermeister distillery Wolfenbüttel... ???
Thats my City 😂✋🏻
Fantastic to hear! We loved visiting.
Ehhhhhh, hola chicos!, a seguir recorriendo Alemania!. Like listo y a ver el video. Somos Plinio, Luisa y Plinio Jr. desde Talcahuano, Chile!
Hola hola Plinio! Sí, continuamos con los videos de Alemania. Esperamos que los estén disfrutando. Saludos a la familia!
Hola. Muy hermosa la arquitectura de Alemania, ustedes como siempre disfrutando, eso es muy entretenido, ahh se nota muy rica comida un abrazo , Luisa, Plinio y Plinito, de 🇨🇱
Gracias!
Beautiful town! But I don't think I could bring myself to eat raw meat!
Thanks! Totally understand Susan.
This is very harmless, we also eat raw ground meat from pork on rolls called Mettbrötchen
Regensburg Germany, are you going????
Not on this trip. Hopefully next time.
@@samuelandaudrey awesome, have a great mate there & she'll love to show you around her town.
Take it easy you 2👍
Ich lebe in celle
Where did you stay in Celle?
Just on the outskirts of the downtown.
Really nice town ,,,I would be afraid to try raw beef
Thanks Effie! I was a bit apprehensive about the beef as well, but was pleasantly surprised. Definitely out of the ordinary for my taste buds!
Hi from Uruguay🤩🤗🤗
Hello Beatriz! Thanks for watching.
👍🇩🇪
Thanks!
I call them half-timbered houses.
Thanks for letting us know!
Ohne gläser?
Oato. Is otto...o sharp t....otto....easy?
?
I've had "Rouladen", but it wasn't raw...
We tried to cooked version as well and that one was stuffed with bacon and a few different veggies. It was tasty, but it felt like a completely different dish compared to the raw one!
Spätzle/Spaetzle is pronounced Sh-PATs-LEE long A
Thanks for the tip with that! We clearly were butchering it.
Was ist es. Immer die sprachprobkeme. Spatzle. Like for me. THRRROCKMMORRTEN.....GUTERAL...wir. lernen. Not lorrnen....leicht. easy.....
