German CULTURE SHOCKS 🇩🇪 That Never Actually Happened to Us (As Americans)!

There are many videos on the culture shocks foreigners experience when moving to Germany and other countries. We watched quite a few of them, and some of the things we thought about Germans before moving here from the USA...ended up not being true! We were waiting for them to happen, and they never did. Can you guess what some of them might be? #livingingermany #lifeingermany #cultureshock #americansingermany #germany #germanylifestyle //VIDEOS MENTIONED IN THIS VIDEO// 🇩🇪 German Culture Shocks - They're NOT What You've Heard Before! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4YdeJwxMLGs&t=212s 🇩🇪 Germany Helps Parents in Ways Americans Can only DREAM About! 🇩🇪 Is it Cheaper to Raise Kids Here? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCIbqtUIbag&t=43s //JUMP TO YOUR FAVORITE PART// 0:00 - Scenes from Hallstatt, Austria 02:30 - #1 - Something about the weather... 05:44 - #2 - Germans and strangers... 07:48 - #3 - Germans and smiling... 08:23 - #4 - German friendships... 10:54 - #5 - How Germans live... 13:09 - #6 - Germany and TAXES... 14:18 - #7 - Something about how Germans dress 📖 See the blog post that goes with this video here - https://mymerrymessygermanlife.com/german-culture-shocks-that-never-happened-to-us-as-americans 🤩 LIKE THE MUSIC IN THIS VIDEO?
