- I took myself on a solo travel date to dresden in germany because i love myself (& I miss my solo backpacking + interrailing europe days!).
Ever since I started studying abroad in Berlin, I've been wanting to explore more of Germany! When I saw a deal on train tickets to Dresden, I knew I had to take it! Explore Dresden with me, get all the female solo backpacker tips and soak up the gratitude and self love of spending time with yourself!! I hope this inspires you to explore somewhere alone, even if it's the street next to you :)

Casual Magic of the Day: I watched Mamma Mia with one of my closest friends at university and there is such simple magic in enjoying a good film with people you love. We danced to Dancing Queen, sang along to all the songs and cuddled under a blanket. Sundays are good.

As a Dresden native, your appreciation of the city is refreshing and welcome.
I find it beautiful that you live there!🌸
@@omeimakh6758 heh, born and raised here. All in all, i like it here, though i wish more thinking went to accessibility for the disabled.
It's always refreshing to hear from native experience, what would be your top ten pros of living in Dresden as a resident?
I've been to Dresden and Berlin before the pandemic, I much prefer Dresden to Berlin hopefully when I retire next year I can renew my love of that city again.
I think the romanticising section where she's just sitting by the river is so important, we never take enough time to sit down and just appreciate the world. It really uplifted my day :)
sadly I have ocd so can never do this, can never relax be present in the moment, always always preoccupied and caught in a cycle tormented by distressing obsessive thoughts and trying to cancel them out by doing compulsions. I envy people who can do this. the fact I can't ever be present and enjoy things and constantly feel worried /preoccupied with my ocd results in me becoming depressed too
i'm so glad i watched that part! my favorite thing is that you don't even have to be somewhere special to do it right??? the other day on the full moon i literally went outside AT NIGHT (i was terrified) and sat on my deck staring at the moon and feeling the breeze and it was such a magical moment! taking time especially when we are busy just to kind of sit back and observe _something_ is an activity i hope i'll enjoy for the rest of my life :)
BROS I AM FROM THIS CITY. I LIVE THERE. ITS FCKING BEAUTIFUL
Successful and unsuccessful people do not vary greatly in their abilities. They vary in their desires to reach their potential.
I live near Dresden and fun fact: those darker stone you can see in the church (Frauenkirche) are the stones, that remained from the chruch there, which was destroyed in the second world war. The ruins where left there as a memorial, before the reconstruction (thought it might be interesting) btw it is just as beautiful on the inside^^
Hey, ich komme auch aus der Nähe von Dresden 🤗
ich auch :)
Ich auch :D
Well hello I‘m from Dresden
Dresden was absolutely leveled. Not the Allies' most honorable battle
Everyone's life goals are different! Mine is to look back when I'm on deathbed, and knowing that I enjoyed my life, made beautiful friendships, seized every opportunity and lived in present.
Idk if it's good or bad. But my definition of success is not having a job that pays me fortune but to be happy and just be present in the moment
Me too!
This comment really helped. A lot of people have been saying i am not ambitious enough and it really helps to see people with different perspectives of life.
Imagine if we all had this same goal! I hope to live in the moment and literally not worry about anything/be at peace while doing what you love ❤
@@himayahewageegana5488 i hate when people say i am Not ambitious enough as well
I needed this comment because today I was asking myself the exact same thing about job wise - I wanted to go to my deathbed and not have a normal life but have a life that full of experiences in locations and people.
Solo dates are addictive after you get into it once. 😭❤️✨
Here's to taking yourself on dates and making yourself feel good, because you deserve it! Here's to Self love 🥂
yes yes yes, i love this energy 🌸💐
Your ‘took myself on a date’ videos are my favorite❤️
They're one of my favourites to create 💐 thank you!
same its inspires me to do the same
I have lived in Dresden my whole life and seeing the city from your perspective is so cool! It's such a different experience. Also I'm so glad that you met nice people!
7:35 the way you were in shock of the beauty and hallelujah started playing in the background was so unreal! it felt magical. real ✨ main character energy ✨
I go on a lot of vacations with my dad and one of my favorite moments was when we were in Dresden on Fathers Day in 2015 and we walked by the river and there were so many drunk students playing football and walking with their wagons and the weather was beautiful and there were a few hot air balloons floating around. :)
I just wanted to let you know that your comment put a big smile on my face since im one of those drunk students celebrating fathers day every year 😂
I just moved to Dresden a few days ago to study my master's degree and the city especially Neustadt has really enchanted me, like the poeple are so nice and open here and there is a lot to discover. And this video made me so happy it's unbelievable 😍 now I'm really sure it was the right decision to move here
How did you find it after a year looking back?
Omg i live in Dresden!! It is such a nice experience seeing how someone else is exploring the places i know since birth, i hope you had a wonderful time! love you
Hahaa, me too! It's crazy seeing someone you have been following for years suddenly in a video where they are literally sitting in your neighborhood :D
Hi guys! I am new in Dresden. I came from Poland, and I am literally craving for making new friendships here :)
Does anyone know someone who is up to the same? Or maybe some of you would like to drink coffee together and admire this incredibly beautiful city? ☺️
@@ladyflacko3340 u go to Neustadt, sit down at Assi-Eck or Alaunpark and wait like 5 min. there u go, you´ve met new ppl XD
Just started studying here 💕 it’s so beautiful here!!
@@grantmills2557 yeah Assi-Eck is really charming :D
I honestly feel like my solo trips have been almost better than the trips w/ friends or family! It is so peaceful and calming + u just have soo much freedom🧚🏻☁️☺️
People are attractive to you because you have such an uplifting energy around you Jade !
Bringing back so many memories from Jade’s travelling vlogs 🥺❤️
Honestly YES this is what inspired me to go!! 🥺 i feel like i've grown so much since then
the moment you recorded the kids being so happy because of the bubbles, and you in awe by the beauty of the city, made me super emotional :')) it was so beautiful to see, thank you x
also i love how wholeheartedly you show your emotions and how i can tell that you are genuinely so fascinated by the things you see/hear. absolutely can relate and i always feel stupid being fascinated by things so easily, but seeing it happen with you makes me feel better about it because it seemed so heartwarming and sweet!
What a lovely comment
those nice interactions you had with others inspires me to be the nice stranger in someone else's story-i think we all should pass it on! an act of kindness so it will explode like a chain reaction!
I just came back from my Erasmus in Dresden and this video was like a rollercoaster of emotions 💔 I can't wait to get back there someday!
Thank you for the wonderful video and such beautiful footage
Seeing such a wonderful and kindhearted person like Jade get what they deserve and what brings them joy truly fills me with hope and I could not be more happy for her :)
I could feel such an intense energy when you were mesmerised by the architecture & the violins in the background. Stay happy
Just started studying in Dresden and it’s an actual dream. One of the most beautiful cities in my opinion. 💕
If you want to do another trip within Germany, I can really recommend the towns by the German coast, like Rostock or Lübeck (or maybe even Hamburg). They are really pretty as well 🥰✨
Only the haven in Hamburg is worth a day
Honestly I love watching people taking photos of my city. Makes me feel proud and forces me to look more closely at something I've passed countless of times ☺ 📷
I've been living in Dresden as an American for a year now and it's SO beautiful! There are STILL more plans to rebuild some areas too. But you still only got a taste!
There's still so much in the surrounding that is worth seeing; Großer Garten, Loschwitz, Schloss Albrechtsburg & Lingnerschloss (some of the best raised views of Dresden for free!)... and further in the surrounding area Schloss Pillnitz, Moritzburg, Meißen, and the Sächsiche Schweiz (Königstein is my favorite area here)! You have to come back!
Oh, these streets that I walk on every day!! It's so much fun seeing them through the eyes of a tourist! Been in Dresden for 3 years and even now, the city doesn't fail to inspire me!
Dear Jade! I can't even describe how grateful I am for you, how much I appreciate and love your videos. Like every of them, but these solo dates!! I mean...
You literally have taught me how to notice life while you’re living🕊, how to call things "the casual magic", how to be present. Thank you a lot! You are wonderful person ❤
Jade its such a blessing to see you upload! You light up my day just by your existence!🌸😊
Gahhh you're so lovely, thank you for making me smile! 🥰✨
This made me so happy! I grew up near Dresden and was so cool to to see you exploring my home
I really love your positive energy. No matter where you are, I am enjoying your journey with you over here 🤞💕
That's so fun! I need to start allowing myself to take trips like this as well!
I really wasn't expecting to cry watching this video, but here I am
I watch your videos when I’m feeling down because YOURE SO DAMN POSITIVE💙.
Jade i can't tell how much i value your content, you're just amazing. Thanks 💗
I was just binging your old videos and this popped up. Thank you for being incredibly inspirational, and my favorite person atm 💖
This vlog, and I'm not a really vlog-watching person anymore, is wholesome. Jade, you're younger but already discover things I just recently discovered in my late twenties. It is truly inspiring to watch and follow you on Instagram.
Omg, I can't believe it, you were so close and I had no idea. I'm happy that you're exploring Germany, much love!
Oh wow, are you from Dresden?! The prettiest city ✨🥺
@@UnJadedJade Not quite, but I live in a small town not too far away and Dresden is the next big city, so I visit it pretty often. I'm very happy that you liked it, your vlogs always make my day!🤗
I have always wanted to visit Germany and I've also started learning German this summer!!!💖 And it feels great watching Jade's video during the relaxed period~ (I'm taking an exam next week BTW😔)
YOU REALLY MADE UP MY DAY✨ Hope the best😍
Omg thank you so much for making this video. I was born and raised in Dresden and seeing you being so fascinated by everything made me remember how beautiful my city actually is. I almost cried because I’m gonna move out in a couple of months and I’m not ready to leave :(
I’m also kinda sad that I didn’t meet you because you passed the market stall where i work, it was literally in the video ahhhh. Maybe next time I’m luckier 😊🤍
Lots of Love from Dresden!
What an extremely positive and inspiring video! Thank you very much! How nice that your visit to Dresden was such a great success.
I love how you’re just so full of life! You inspire me to go and explore the world.
It's funny to watch you getting exited about Dresden. I've lived there for about 14 years so it's just normal for me 😅
thank you for making me rediscovering my love for my motherland and viewing germany from different, better perspective. your honesty in your videos is really giving me smiles. much love
you're such a positive, lovely person! I've been feeling ill (and quite depressed and anxious) for the last few weeks and your single video made me so much happier and better! makes me want to try and find positive things in every aspect of my life < 3
ur indeed so pretty and this vlog just made my day! can't believe how inspiring you are💛
The positive energy in this video.. wow I’ve got goosebumps
*"Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking." - Marcus Aurelius*
Its magical, Jade. I feel like your positive energy is flowing through me❤️✨✨😄Love your videos.
I love the scene where those colorful bubbles float to the sky, so moved when these little moments in life are captured and cherished. Also loving the BGM at 9:20, it fits the atmosphere so well. I'm always impressed by how you can spend time with yourself and having such a wonderful trip. Lots of LOVE to u, Jade :3❤️✨You are such an inspiring person to me!!!
What a beautiful video and so lovely Jade. You really do your best to make the most out of things and I want to thank you for that. You inspire so many of us!
This is where my great grandma grew up. Lovely to see
such a gorgeous city! 💐
this video is my casual magic of the day
I’ve never heard people from other countries speak so nicely of Germany :) heart-warming
After watching your previous video about going on a date with yourself, I also went on a trip with myself and wow everyone should do that! I enjoyed it so much !!!
I loved how this video told a story about your day in Dresden and how the simplest things- train rides, gazing at architecture, enjoying the wonderment of kids as they watch the bubble artist, eating vegan food and ice cream and exploring with new friends- how all these small things can add up to a truly wonderful and memorable day :)
And yes, I laugh when someone says "punctual like DB" because DB is sometimes very unpunctual :D :D Oh, I loved the church scenes and you sitting at the river and the music
Having my office right on the new market with view on the frauenkirche your expression seeing it the first time made me kind of sad since i absolutely dont care about it anymore. I just re-arranged my office so the desk is facing outside. No more views for my guests and customers: its mine now :D thank you for that
I currently live with 17 housemates, and as much fun, it can be it can also be a lot sometimes. So for the past few weeks I have been going on walks in nature atleast once a week alone, and I really love those moments
17? How is that even possible?
I've always wanted to visit Germany it's really beautiful! Hope your doing well + keeping well! You have also been recognized by my school! That's how much of a star you are!😊❤️
Jade, love your solo travel videos sooo much. Literally just arrived back from Europe last month traveling solo and my first stop was Dresden! Gorgeous architecture, and overall it was the best experience ever! Keep it up!
I live in Dresden and it's really cool seeing someone else's thoughts about my hometown. Hope you had a wonderful day in Dresden
Heya! I'm so glad that you decided to visit Dresden especially at this time of the year. I live in Dresden and I also visited this Autumn market in Alstadt almost two weeks ago. 😊
It feels wonderful and a little funny at the same time to see these huge historical spectacles from a fresh pair of eyes; something that you are so used to seeing every day 😍
Ah this made me so happy!! One of my best friends lives there and these were the last few areas I saw her 3 years ago.
omg, I had goosebumps throughout the whole video! This is so wholesome :)
Your smile always makes the world happy 😊
If anyone is interested. There is a museum in Dresden called the "Panometer".
There are two main "attractions". One will show you Dresden as it is now and one shows you the ruins after ww2. This is really interesting but as far as I know is that this displays will show separately and only half a year. So if you visit in February /March you may see the one and if you visit October/November you see the other.
I love traveling around Germany. Thanks for taking us along for your solo journey. The story about the family paying the rest of your meal was sweet.
Just booked a solo trip to Berlin! Can't wait! Thank you for your self love videos girl!!
Hello from Dresden! So interesting to see your point of view about the city I live in :) you have to come back in December to visit the German Christmas Market! It is such a beautiful place to see, the October Market is pretty similar - but not even close to the one in December ;) I am so grateful I found your video, to see the beauty of my hometown through your eyes. Thank you so much!
i love your “date with myself” videos! more please! ❤️
jo i live in dresden and this just reminded me how easy it is to forget to appreciate the city you live in. like you just forget how pretty it can be because you see it everyday
You were not alone, you took all of us with you!
As someone who is from Dresden but is studying abroad right now and misses this city so much, it is really nice to see your video and your appreciation for the city. I am so excited to be back and basically see this place with new eyes. I have never been away for more than 3 weeks and it has been 8 months now. I love your videos
Omg I was just watching your 'taking myself on a date at 4:30 Am' video aah! And was wishing that you should make more of 'taking myself on a date' videos and you just posted this!
she has the brightest smile and the purest soul❤️❤️
Most wholesome positive person that exists
We can guss how truly happy you are by the satisfying smile on your face 😊 💛
Watching Jade live her life is so beautiful to see. Your videos make me so happy and romanticizing your life is just😍
Omg loved this Jade!! The music, vibes, everything, so beautiful xx
So good vibes in this video, we love your energy Jade ♥️
It’s so cool to see my hometown through your eyes. Especially because I‘ll leave in 5 days to study in a different city
Jade jade how can I explain my feelings, I cried from happiness ❤️ thank you for the big hope and love u share with us
I think you are a amazing Person praying for your 2021 I love to see more streams of what vlogs you did and also the year ahead for you Stay strong
i cried due to beauty and casual magic of the video ✨ it was so gorgeous 💖
These video’s are so lovely and priceless 💗💗💗 thanks so much for sharing
This video made me so happy on a Monday morning. I can't wait to see the world again once the borders open where I live
You are soo Happy, now i am so happy and motivated to study hard so one day I can have those experiences. Thanks Jade you are my inspiration ♡
This vlog was sooo beautiful and joyful❤️❤️ Love ur solo traveling and solo dates kind of videos 🥺
jade i hope you know you're precious, you always make me smile with your videos
I loved what you said about your moment of realisation about your ancestor's and the German guys ancestors. I feel like that's what the German curriculum on WWII tries to ingrain into us from very early on. This feeling of, it's not your fault or responsibility but it still has implications for you today such as taking responsibility for never letting it happen again.
I had a similar encounter when I toured a university library in Belgium while on exchange which was destroyed by the Germans during both wars and there I was standing touring that library and studying in it, the grandchild of a man who was forced to fight for the Nazis in Belgium 75 years ago, quite a strange feeling but it definitely makes you more grateful for a lot of things.
Loving the vlogs Jade✨
Grace!! Thank you 🦋✨
Love you so much you give me lots of energy and help me to go through my day
hi jade! thank you so, so much for this video! last year i spent 3 months in dresden with my best friend. we were working at a hotel a little out of the city. i remember the moment when we stepped out through the same doors as you did at the Hauptbahnhof. these 3 months were the best 3 months in my entire life, it was absolutely beautiful and we were so happy! almost everyday after work we would go into the city and lok around. by the end of our stay i had fallen in love with the city and the people there - it was our home!
watching this video gave me the opportunity to relieve all the beautiful moments i spent there, at places that you visited! i loved seeing all the places again. it made me so happy and i cried a bit watching... so thank you so much jade for making this video!! it made me so happy!
I recently spent several days in Dresden, having travelled around the south and western parts of Germany. I still had Nuremberg to go before travelling to Salzburg and Vienna.
I loved Dresden! It is my favourite place on these travels. I loved the history, the buildings, the cafes, the river, the churches, the quiet gardens where I could sit and contemplate etc etc, and the fact that many of the buildings which had been partially destroyed during WW2 had been rebuilt in the old style.
Lovely place which I would recommend anyone to visit.
Ah your videos literally make me so happy. You're da best✨✨😭💓
Oh perfect Sunday content at the best moment for me 🥰🥰🥰
have the best cosy sunday!! 💐
as someone who is from Germany herself it's so weird but also eye opening to see a traveler's/foreigner's perspective :)
Found you through your Australia vlogs and wow I have missed this energy on your channel! Hell yes to free spirited traveling jade!
Love your personality! You spread so much good vibes :)
That was a nice respectful compliment. He wanted to respect his girlfriend, that's why he told you about her so you knew him giving you the compliment doesn't mean he's making an actual move towards you, so he was showing you respect as well. But he still wanted to make your day better and make you feel happy by telling you he appreciated you. You know what I mean? 😊 Sounds like a lovely experience.
