After watching plenty of vloggers talking about the excitement of living in a foreign country, I decided to get real and talk about how after enough time, life in a foreign country just becomes your new normal life.

Does AI know what it's like to live in Germany as an American? I asked #ChatGPT to write a script and in this video I'll be sharing that script with you along with my opinion on what AI gets right, and what it gets wrong.

Living in a foreign country is awesome, but sometimes you just need a taste of home. In this video I'm cooking one of our favorite American things - Hot Sauce! And of course, I'll also be talking about life in Germany.

Have you ever wondered what it’s like to study in both American and German schools? Our teenage daughter has experienced it and is here to share her insights and opinion, as well as reflections from her German classmates.

I've been slacking lately - no new videos on our channel in 2 weeks! Been busy around here, but good news! Our daughter recorded her first solo video and will share some of her experiences in the German school system compared to the American system. Stay tuned!

While we love life here in Germany, there are definitely some challenges to living here. In our newest video, I'll tell you about the one thing that makes me want to leave Germany and set out for new adventures abroad.

@SoloTravelStory Thanks for watching! We've definitely learned some things from living here. It's not perfect (and next week I'll have a collab video talking about some things Germans can learn from Americans 😁) but we can all learn something from different cultures and countries. 👍

We can all learn from different cultures, and after 1 1/2 years in Germany we've seen many cultural and lifestyle differences that Americans can learn from. Our newest video talks about 3 of these things.

We're back with more German chocolate! Over the past few months, we collected as many unique flavors of Ritter Sport as we could find, and in this video, we taste them all. How many flavors of these have you have tried?

@SoloTravelStory Thanks! It was awesome to finally be able to experience it. Hope you make it next time!

As parents of four kids, there is a special joy for us in the Christmas market. Not only do we get to enjoy the amazing atmosphere in the city, but we also get to enjoy the magic of the Christmas market through the eyes of our children.

[OnwardMJ @OnwardMJ]

@SoloTravelStory Nice! Maybe we'll run into each other!
