    Hello everybody! ❤I know for the people watching the last few episodes from the Camper Tour you might not have liked them that much BUT I have wayyyyy more time to edit and try and represent what I saw as best as I can in these next few videos for sure! I’m actually VERY happy with how this video turned out for instance (since I finally got a full night’s rest). And I’m looking forward to showing you more of what I saw while I was here! Again, this isn’t gonna be for everyone (and I definitely understand that) but I’m doing the best I can with what I have at this point 🔥👌🏽😎! The next 3 vlogs will be Munich Vlogs (finally) Also, I’m going to revisit most of these places in the future for a proper tour! Nördlingen in my opinion was a SUCCESS tho! 🔥

    Small correction: the meteor created a crater which is 25km in diameter and encompasses the entire Donau Ries area. You can actually see the edges of the crater from basically any point in the Ries.
    The Jakobsweg and the Romantische Straße lead through Nördlingen, and like your mate pointed out the city wall is quite unique too, so we've had our fair share of tourists prior to Attack on Titan. But it's nice to see more people appreciate our little town :)

    Fun Fact: The city model you witnessed is actually a project to make sightseeing city’s „viewable“ for blind people. It’s a German wide Programm where the cities and also special buildings in cities have these, the dots on it are blind letters, so they can read what they feel around. This way these people can experience the sightseeing sights without seeing with their eyes.

    In case you revisit Nördlingen I'd recommend visiting the Bavarian Railway Museum. It in a former railway depot with an operational turntable next to a locomotive shed. They have a couple of really remarkable steam engines some of which are still able and allowed to drive. Perhaps the most famous one is the Bavarian S 3/6 (amer. 4-6-2) pacific type express locomotive in its original Bavarian colour scheme - operational still.
    And have you been to the meteorite museum? If not I'd recommend that too. They've got a real rock probe sampled on the Moon by one of NASA's Apollo missions.

    Guten Appetit 😄
    I have no idea about AOT, but I 1000% understand that if you're addicted to certain movies, series or whatever, you're crazy about going to original locations etc.
    And Nördlingen really is beautiful. And there are also local conditions that provide the perfect setting for a lot of fantasy.
    No wonder it was immortalized, I'll have to do a bit more research on AOT.
    You're right, this vlog has James Bray quality again.
    Thanks also for panning the camera slower from the tower. You seem to be learning that your viewers need to get their bearings first and the picture needs to be slower than when you're watching live yourself, thanks! 😄
    What a beautiful place and everything still seems to be as it was centuries ago 😍

    If you plan to come back to Germany another time and have a trip with multiple stops, I have a suggestion. How about if you let us, the audience, decide via poll where you go, what you see and what you eat? I kind of missed the food parts in the vlogs.
    Anyway, good video!

    I've tried - as far as time allows - to find out a bit about AOT and now I have a question: Was Shiganshina actually modeled more or less 1 to 1 on Nördlingen (because James thought he knew his way around here, could find his way around based on AOT and possibly even find certain houses) or was AOT simply modeled on the usual medieval German towns and Nördlingen simply comes closest?
