Vlog 5/6: A Nostalgic Vlog. Freiburg im Breisgau
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 жов 2024
- In Basel I have the chance to give you some other advice on how to use FlixBus, then I leave to Freiburg im Breisgau. I haven't really vlogged here because I spent the weekend with some of my good old friends that I haven't seen in years. Hope you'll forgive me. But I put together a montage of impressions of the town.

My high school choir from Minnesota USA traveled Europe in 1969. I was 17. My choir performed a concert in the Freiburg Stadtpark Saturday, August 2, 1969, 8:00 PM. Then, for a week, we participated in an international choir fest. That was an extraordinary time. Freiburg hat mir gefallen.
I liked the Alpine horns. They were used in a 📺 add for Ricola cough drops ! Glad you got to see your friends. Have a great weekend Mary Jane 😊!
Thanks a lot David, I'll spend it editing the last vlog of my trip :)
You have a great weekend too!
It's kinda interesting that a few people would take time and trouble to bring the sounds of real Alpenhorn to the Basler Hauptbannof in the days just before Xmas ... and then someone would complain to the police about the "noise". Good will to all men.
I too lived in Freiburg as a student in 1984. It was the greatest year of my life.
Visited all around the world several times but Freiburg im Breisgau is very very peace ful and open armed for foreigners natives are always ready to help and open hearts may God bless Germany and german nation. 😊
Bravo Mary!
A sincere and sensible touch regarding your memories in Freiburg.
All the best and my kind respects for your thoughts!
Thanks Vlad :)
Freiburg seems like a peaceful city.
It is, but it's still a culturally lively town. Lovely.
It is I live there
Very nice. Thank you for showing the city.
I'm thinking of moving to Freiburg this autumn! Thanks for the first impressions :)
Lucky you! ;)
Moving there in the fall for an exchange year - I can't wait! It looks so special
Oh I'm so glad for you...😊
Phenomenal place. ❤️it!! Thanks for sharing!
Lovely! I spent 1983-84 there as a Rotary Foundation Scholar - its charms have not faded!!!
Hey Mary Jane, I visited Freiburg exectly 10 years ago. What a lovely city! I enjoyed it very much. Your video is wonderful!
Cheers, Emily :)
Thanks Emily :) Lovely is a perfect word to describe Freiburg!
I can relate to you going back and how it changed you. I spent 2 1/2 years in Germany with the US Army. 5 months in Berlin then the rest in Bayreuth. Having my son stand with me in the same locations where I was, was emotional to say the least.
You are earnest in your travel and endeavors on branding, i appreciate that greatly. Most vloggers are very extreme in their personas, over flashy ad pronounced. I prefer your style because it enhances the cultural and natural experiences that you show in the videos. Of course your content is fantastic! I have been watching many of your videos lately, but i will make sure to like and comment on each upload to help the most i can with the visibility. Love your channel
I truly appreciated your feedback on my work, thank you. That's thoughtful of you to like and comment my videos, I would indeed help the channel with the algorithm 🙂
I moved from Freiburg to Tokyo a half year ago.
Your video made me so emotional and reminds me of my beautiful little Hometown in germany. I really enjoyed watching your video❤
Ooooh ❤
Wow really excellent work watching it again because of how breathtaking the city is and thanks for sharing part of your story where the real journey started
I'm glad you appreciated :)
Que bonito y el recuerdo más lindo
I visited Freiburg with friends in 2002, while heading back to the French alps after a snowboard contest in Austria. Spending the night at my best friends girlfriends house, we had a great night out and the next day went to a beautiful coffee shop (The Oscars, I believe?) that sold the best breakfast, before a little sight seeing and hitting the road. Such amazing memories, especially given that it was my first time in Germany. Now I am dating a girl from Münster and have been lucky enough to spend a lot of time enjoying many of the beautiful sights on offer in Germany. We are now thinking of possibly relocating to Freiburg in order to be closer to the alps. :) Thank you for your wonderful content and for sharing your emotional experience. Best wishes from Scotland. Duncan.
Hey Duncan! Thanks for sharing your beautiful memory of Freiburg. It warmed my heart reading it.
As far as I could experience/hear from people who have lived there for a long time, the only real problem that some have with Freiburg is that it's after all a very small city and therefore doesn't offer the broad cultural life that other cities offer, although it's very lively for its size, mainly due to the university. So if you don't mind that, I think it might be a great option for being closer to the Alps and still living in Germany.
Freiburg is a very very nice town. And I like your videos a lot!
Thanks!
💃♥️✨ your videos are getting better and better!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Awww thanks!
OMG I'm crying! I did my erasmus almost 4 years ago and it feels like yesterday. I'm so gratful to have had such an experience like that and I feel u so much! 😍
Freiburg is beautiful. Great video. Thank You Mary Jane.
Thank you Marcus.
Omg I'm gonna start my studies in Freiburg in October I'm so excited for the coming memories I will make there !
Uuuh lucky you! 😊
Hi Mary Jane, Freiburg is very beautiful.
What a pretty town
I'm half German
Mayby someday I'll see it
Nicely shot Bravo
You should!
Thank you for putting this up. I visited Freiburg in 1995 when I was Inter-railing on my own. it’s a very special friendly place hopefully I will get to visit again one day.
I wish you can make it there again one day :)
I been there in 2015 and it's really nice town .good job
Great vlog as always MJ!
Johnny thanks!
Was retracing some of the places I visited in New York in 2015, and UA-cam suggested Action Kid tour of little Italy with Mary Jane.So I watched it together with other MJ videos.I must say after a few hours of discovering MJ channel yesterday that Mary Jane is a lovely and special person.I wish ( and pray also) for all of the best of life for her. Blessings, Shaun , South Africa 😀😀🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hi Shaun, thank you very much your comment is lovely 🙏😊
What a shame Mary Jane No Problem.👍(I also include your Mom & Dad & siblings
in this prayer - Numbers 6:24-26- The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the LORD lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.)
Charm level 10/10
That place is beautiful ! :)
Hi Mary Jane! I love your videos and your point of view in life. If you ever want to visit the Netherlands and Eindhoven city, you can be my gest. Be well!
Thanks Stratos!
Renewing your memories by visiting them can renew you emotions in a positive way. Ciao MJ

Thanks for all your kind words.
What a shame Mary Jane Absolutely my friend thank you very much.Having a fantastic time.Thank you for always getting back to your subbies.Very cool of you.Much Love
Ha nice that it was in 2011-2012. Was the best year of my studies. I started with an internship here in the Netherlands at the national park/forest service, leading to me wanting to follow a master at Wageningen University in relation to sustainability. The best and workwise most fun internship I did. Followed by a trip to Istanbul for our minor, staying at an appartment just of Istiklal and apparently at the very entrance of a neighbourhood with a not so great reputation(which we didn't know). For the summer holiday I went back with my dad to Sri Lanka for the first time since I was adopted. Love the videos. I do want to visit Freiburg in the future, looks nice. I've passed it numerous times when going to my aunt in Switzerland, time to make a stop the next time ;-)
And I love your comment! Wow! Thanks for sharing your engaging story of 2011-2012, I wish I knew more! Sounds exactly like the year I've had, one of those moments that just change your life forever. Are you new to this channel? How did you discover it?
@@WhatashameMaryJane Thanks, haha if you'd like to know more let me know no problem ;-) E.g. Istanbul is incredible, but you know that already of course since you visited it with your husband. We didn't even visit some top sights, Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque or Topkapi, but we saw a lot and were never bored. Watching your video triggered my memories so I thought I'd just share them. I found your channel probably 3 weeks or so ago. Got a video from Actionkid in my recommended list. Apparently because I looked at some of his cycling videos, as a Dutchman that still seems like a challenge to me. I've been to NYC once when I was 19(in 2009), but didn't cycle then, so next time. I like his videos, you feel like you're touring the city and it's relaxing. Anyway the recommended video was him with you checking out Little Italy and trying food, I ended up watching both videos. I mean an Italian trying Italian food in the US triggered my interest. So that's how I got to your channel, seen a couple videos now including the one on Istanbul of course. I'll stop typing now before the comment gets even longer ;-) Enjoy the rest of the day.
@@polipolimaui Thanks for letting me know how you got in contact with my channel and why it triggered your interest. It's always very interesting for me to know that, because it's not always clear to me. Have a good day too :)
Great video MJ! Really well done, splendid choices for music, subjects and... your voice when you talked in background... great voice Giò! I visited Friburg 17 years ago during Christmas time. Amazing!
Grazie Marco! How old are you?
@@WhatashameMaryJane unfortunatly too much to do all the things you do in the way you do (55) 😀 but my wife pushed me to taste the flavour of travelling since we became engaged (I was a bit lazy). At that time no flixbus, no smartphones but we always book apartments for our holidays or even better privatzimmer (bedrooms in private houses as you know) because one of most interesting part of our holidays is talking to local people. Last year we went to Slovenia and we had an interesting conversation with the lady, owner of the apartment, about"their" way to see and live EU. I do like really much your way to see things, at least the ones related to these videos. 😉 Ciao
Marco Di Cesare That’s fascinating. Thanks for the answer.
Buon viaggio Mary Jane!!!😊
Grazie!
When the sun goes down, the sky is getting dark and then the city lights start being reflected on the ground after some rain makes me feel no nostalgic, don't know why.
Merci ....votre chaine est fabuleuse !!!!!!
Marci Jean!
Absolutely LOVED the horns! And my 12 months in Alicante changed me so much as well. I really can understand you perfectly! I only visited twice after the erasmus, but it was so intense. That small alley I wandered into when I got lost, one of the first nights I spent there, is the most precious memory of that city, aside from the people, of course. Everytime I went there, by myself, just to get that feeling back. Lost, but found
Erasmus is one of the best inventions of the united Europe.
Sehr schön. Danke. Ich vermisse auch Deutschland.
I haven't been to Switzerland but one day I might go.
Dir scheint es gut gefallen zu haben in Freiburg . Freut mich mich für Dich , so eine schöne Erfahrung gemacht zu haben .
Sehr gut, natürlich! Danke Ingo.
Such a lovely video. Such a lovely woman.
Este lugar parece realmente encantador, espero poder ir cuando todo esto pase. Ver y compartir lugares como estos es por lo que me gusta viajar y hacer videos!
Searched for ny, got my hometown :D Nice Feelings.
Aahahah awesome :)
Uhhh!! it reminds me my two years in Wurzburg during my PhD! The same atmosphere...
I can imagine :)
Absolutely beautiful city, Mary Jane! I'd love to visit one day. As a travel consultant, Germany is high on my list of countries to explore. Thanks for sharing...
Travel consultant? Wow, I've never heard of it! What do you do exactly?
Actually, a travel consultant is the same as a travel agent. Handling air, hotel, limousine reservations for corporate clients. I've also done leisure (vacation) travel.
Hello Mary Jane, I live in Freiburg and your video is really nice.
Many greetings from Germany
Hi there! You're very lucky! :)
Amazing !
I was just there for meeting friends over the weekend and some cool techno partys! the city is really awesome, just was at the plaza yesterday and the library is really crazy architecture :D
The library is brand new, it wasn't even there when I used to live in Freiburg. Please you have to tell me where you found techno parties! Most of the clubs I knew have closed!
I can understand lovely city
My hometown♥️♥️♥️
Nice what you said about Freiburg
I was going to start my MSc study in Freiburg this April. Well, COVID-19 ruined it. I hope I can move there by September! But, well, it seems that the studies will keep going digitally and I won't be able to study at the university on-site... It broke my heart, and made my studies very very difficult (which it was already without the pandemic). DAMN COVID-19 XD.
I'm sorry to hear. If you go to study in Freiburg though, you'll probably have a chance to study in the university once the vaccine is going to be spread. In the meantime, I can guarantee you it's absolutely worth being in Freiburg. There is so much to enjoy about the outdoors and the bike paths both in the city and outside!
Thanks for the reminder to participate in the erasmus programe :)
Every student should participate to Erasmus in Europe!!!!
Very elegant as always!
Thanks!
Wow Mary Jane you look very nice and beautiful amazing Basel Switzerland vlog well done 😊😊❤️❤️👍👍
Cheers!
wow,you're good at making videos...its like i was able to see how you feel about freighbeurg...it must be sacred and meant for those who deserve by baking bread for the homeless.
❤
Freiburg seems like a nice relaxing town. You should go visit more often :)
I totally agree with you 😅
Nostalgic
The horns are very cultural. Bus reminds me of Bolt buses in NYC area. You have a very sentimental connection to Freiburg. What was your life like when you lived there? Were you a student or what? I wonder if someone with last name Friedburg is actually named for that city. Why did you pick that music?
I was a student, yes. Friedburg and Freiburg are definitely two different words in German :)
Nice one !! :-)
I like your Videos, Continue the good work.
Thanks thanks thanks, I will!
After visiting and living in many places, where would you choose to settle? (hypothetical question :) )
My homeland :)
she will live within 5 miles of mom when she has baby :-)all girls do
@@Godlvr008 I thought that was Italian men
You should try Wiesbaden...very gorgeous town
Never visited. Thanks for the tip
@@WhatashameMaryJane if you go in Early August they have 7 or 8 wine towns around Wiesbaden get in the central pedestrian walkway...samples of .3 MLS of wine with the town emblem and you can buy bottles...we hit half the stands sober up and hit the other half...also have a train running a little ways up a Hill and it runs by water power great views
Very nice!
Thanks!
I've been unlucky because in Switzerland i've only been visiting airports... 'whatashameMrCromakey' :)
Switzerland becomes a little Italy? No fabled chronometrical precision any more?
Hi MJ, kannst du auch deutsch sprechen ? Grüße aus den Niederlanden.
Freiburg is one of the most beautiful places I have visited.
I lived there during my studies as well and would definitely say the same about my impressions. Hoping to return or to move to a similar place some time. Is there anything that you think is unique to Freiburg with regard to what makes life good there ?
Something quite unique was a first impression that I got: the quietness of the center of the town. Even when it's super crowded, it's still very calm and still. I took a few days to understand why: it's the lack of cars!
Yeah and slow. Like people are never in a hurry. Actually the former mayor of Freiburg took a rather popular book title to describe the Lebensgefühl in Freiburg: the lightness of being (by Milan Kundera). Which was somehow quite fitting I think. (Leaving out the „unbearable“ of course) So on your list of top spots to live, where would the Freiburg area rank? Spaceholders for places you haven’t visited not included;)
@@charlesphirpo2833 I don't know if I would choose it for living forever. If it was for one or two years, surely in the first places, but not longer.
Funny my niece and nephew studied in Freiburg....
Lucky them!
nice, nice, nice, nice, nice...=)
Why is everyone so coated 😭? I thought it was the sunniest place in Germany
Because it was December?
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
ich vermisse freiburg und sankt peter
Ah free Bird....no that's a song
Io ci volevo andare a friburgo ma ho visto che i prezzi erano un pò elevati... quali consiglieresti per stare 3-4 giorni li ?
I prezzi di che cosa? Quali consiglierei di che cosa?
@@WhatashameMaryJane Mi sono espresso male:
È da tanto tempo che vorrei almeno fare visita a questa bella cittá , vivo in provincia di milano e non sono proprio un mago dei viaggi low cost .
Volevo sapere dove si può soggiornarnare spendendo poco e che attività belle si possono fare in loco.
Per arrivare la consigli flixbus ?
Andrea Per arrivare c’è il treno, non mi ricordo se DB o SBB, se comprato in largo anticipo ai tempi in cui vivevo là costava 50. Flixbus di solito 35 è il prezzo minimo. Ho paura che l’alloggio costerà un bel po’, ma io stavo in appartamenti quindi non saprei dirti di più. Cose da fare consiglio noleggiare una bicicletta e andare in giro in bici in lungo e in largo. Andare in città per mangiare, in zona università per spendere meno, oppure letteralmente fermare universitari per strada e farsi consigliare da loro. Una passeggiata sullo Schlossberg è d’obbligo.
It kills me, kills me, that I left Germany! Kills me! Hey, move back. Yes.
Come to Poland :)
I like Poland! I've been only once
be funny if teenagers today used Alpine horns to communicate, have fun on your travels
Ahaha yes! Thanks
Bella Friburgo, sai che è la città con meno disoccupati in Europa?
Purtroppo essendo una bella cittá ti ci puoi trasferire solo se hai un lavoro sicuro :(
Ah davvero?? No non lo sapevo affatto!
@@dimmacommunication ci vivi? Come detto, proprio perchè il tasso di disoccupazione è bassissimo, è facile trovare lavoro no?
@@hispanico9037 vivi li ?
No
hee il passato...
How old are you Mary Jane?
29
0:00 Als ob nur Jungs das Video anschauen !?
So interessant ist's auch nicht .
How about removing the word shame from the channel's name? It doesn't sound very enthusiastic!
I was born in Freiburg 😀
Great!
What a shame Mary Jane I lived there for 18 years, went to school etc. At one point it became too small for me, I moved away for a better Job.
I can imagine.
Alipne horns = ancient social media....
Ahahaha yessss!
I lived and worked in Freiburg, Switzerland aka Fribourg. Also a student city. Now I get to discover Freiburg im Breisgau, a city where some of my friends ended up in after getting the Freiburg wrong 😀. Namesakes!
Ahahahah I can imagine! They're also dangerously close
Mary Jane, a very important element to traveling is SECURITY. When traveling you need to invest at least 30% of your resources into security and personal protection. Learn personal defense, and learn the Jason Matthews concepts when alone or surrounded by others.
I have other opinions regarding this
@@WhatashameMaryJane Being cautious has much less consequence than not. You can never avoid 1 bad situation too many. Chi ha più giudizio più n'adoperi !
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
