ABOUT ME: Hallo, Servus, and welcome to my channel! My name is Felicia (Feli), I'm 29, and I'm a German living in the USA! I was born and raised in Munich, Germany but have been living in Cincinnati, Ohio off and on since 2016. I first came here for an exchange semester during my undergrad at LMU Munich, then I returned for an internship, and then I got my master's degree in Cincinnati. I was lucky enough to win the Green Card lottery and have been a permanent resident since 2019! In my videos, I talk about cultural differences between America and Germany, things I like and dislike about living here, and other topics I come across in my everyday life in the States. Let me know what YOU would like to hear about in the comments below. DANKE :

    I remember visiting a friend in Denmark in March and we went to the beach for a walk. We were all bundled up in warm jackets, but up in the dunes above the beach were a group of naked people laying out there. My friend said "they are German. No one else would be that crazy."
  • @thudor1
    Uyen Ninh is absolutely adorable!! Had she not met her German boyfriend, she might have gone on to be the Lucille Ball of Vietnam. Her comic timing, chops and physicality are reminiscent of Lucy's three sitcoms.
  • @P0wn1sh3r
    We had German exchange students in the US that could not get over the lack of emojis we used while texting. It always felt over the top when they texted back, but they were so nervous that their tone would come across as angry or upset if they didn’t include enough 😂😂😂😊😊🎉

    I lived in Germany for 18 months in the early 90s, and many of these topics are familiar to me. But the one that's seared in my brain is the German obsession with lüften. My apartment lease required me to perform "eine sachgemäße Be- und Entlüftung" on a regular basis. My German boyfriend insisted on sleeping with the windows wide open -- in February! And then he wondered why I didn't sleep naked. Apparently, he couldn't feel that the temperature in his apartment was something like 2° C. Today, when a German friend of mine visits the U.S., he's thrilled to find a hotel with windows that open so he can "stoßlüften." Frische Luft is truly a German obsession.

    Liam's "toast is not bread" you-tube short is freaking hilarious. I lost track of how many times i watched it.😂
  • @michaelterry1000
    I am an American and have lived in the USA my entire life. I agree with the angry German on the tax thing. It is deception to show a price for an item and then throw on the tax at the checkout.
  • @HamstaHuey
    Whats almost never beeing said about the "Lüften": europeans have very energy-efficent housing, especially the windows are kind of draught-save (because of the long cold winters). And Lüften, especially in winter, exchanges the warm, moisture-rich air to prevent mold.
  • @sarahmaples2879
    My dad's family came to the U.S. from Germany around 1910 and my Grandma would always tell me that it was good for my health to sleep with the window open. 😊 I didn't realize that was advice from Germany.
  • @markmuller7962
    My favourite is when Uyen finds out she's germanised like when she stand up to leave a party slapping her legs 😂
  • @CanadianTimeLord
    I love Calvinandhabs! Their "round sunglasses " skits are HILARIOUS! 'Ah, Doktor Jones...' 😅
  • @jurgnobs1308
    Uyen is awesome. and her relationship with her fiance is just so cute
  • @u140550
    Uyen is one of my favorites!! So happily you reacted to them!! This especially so, because she’s Asian!! We relate a lot!!!
  • @mosmarb
    Uyen is really funny! I like that she's so open about her experiences, including the difficulties - made me think again about how relatively easy it was for me when I moved to Germany for the first time as an equally reserved northern European who could already speak German...
  • I'm from the Netherlands and we have a lot of similarities with Germans. love these tiktoks and your videos.
  • @altosanon
    As a Brit with German and Austrian friends, I love these videos. The towel thing is well known in the UK as both Brits and Germans fight over the sun loungers in Spain! I do admit that from a pessimistic point of view us Brits have a more German attitude that an US one 😂
  • As an adult, when I visited Hawaii with my parents and heard other German speakers, I would excuse myself for interrupting, ask if they were Germam, and then introduce my parents to them so they could speak German with each other. My parents kept asking me why I did that, and were very surprised that I was so bold as to go up to perfect strangers and begin a conversation with them. I thought they would enjoy it, but they did not. I like speaking German with strangers who are German.
  • @Legilimentable
    When I did my Erasmus in the UK, while everyone else would flock to their "national groups" the Germans were the only ones who flocked everywhere BUT to each other 😅
  • @ikkajaalati
    I’m glad you featured Laura Ramoso. Her German Mom routines are so brilliant, some of the funniest stuff I’ve seen.
