- ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL REGIONS IN GERMANY: The Swabian Alb is Joerg's homeland// We just returned from our visit to Germany. It was a short week filled with happiness and laughter because we were over the moon to see our families again. We tried to film as much as possible but sadly our time there was too short and we would have loved to show you more. We still hope you like the video. Today we share Joerg's homeland with you, the beautiful Swabian Alb. We also visited one of the most beautiful castles in Germany. If you ever visit the area, make sure to visit Castle Hohenzollern, we can highly recommend it. Kirsten & Joerg x

Wonderful castle, stunning place, stunning view!!!Your eyes, your smiles are shining during your trip at your homeland!!!Thank you for sharing! Stay safe 👋❤️
Very beautiful and interesting. Just loved the way Jörg was beaming when eating his Schwartzwälderkirschtorte!
So beautiful can almost imagine Rapunzel letting down her hair
Liebte dein Video, bringt wundervolle Erinnerungen in den Vordergrund. Deutschland ist bekannt für die wunderschöne Landschaft und die wunderschönen Schlösser und malerischen Dörfer. Ich komme aus Würzburg (Nordbayern) und lebe derzeit in den USA. Wenn Amerikaner Würzburg besuchen, sollten Sie unbedingt eines der Weinfestivals besuchen.
So beautiful, nothing like going home and seeing family. So happy you got to visit. Thanks for sharing.😍🥰
Please keep sharing your videos they're beautiful.
My family spoke high German and were very proud people. My family settled in northern Michigan in the US
Wow what a beautiful castle.god bless
You are able to find beauty everywhere.
Thanks so much! So many gorgeous places in Germany.
My late father was born in Pirmasens, Germany. Some day would love to visit Germany. Thank you for the lovely video.
Oh Pirmasens is not far from where I come from, about a 30 minute drive. That's amazing!
@@KirstenJoerg If I ever do get there I will definitely visit this amazing castle!
What fun to travel with you two and see your childhood home towns and the beauty around them. I was quite tickled with the folks in small villages listening in to check you two out. 😌
Happy, kind people, sharing their interests with us all. Thank you
Wow can't believe how fast your wee trip has flown by but at least, as you say you got to see your family. Thanks for giving us all a sneak peek at where you both are from. Such different architecture and stunning mountains and forests. The cakes look divine. Rest well from your travels.
My grandparents left Prussia when the Kaiser was in control. They came to the US we have no records of our family that was left behind. My grandfather sent clothes and money during WW2 however they never reached our family and were stolen by the Nazis. All records were saved by the church and that was later burned down. I so love seeing Germany through your eyes!
Lovely area where Joerg is from. If I ever get to Germany, I’ll surely visit that castle.
Loved seeing the backside of the castle sitting high up on the hill. It is so surprising how people knew how to find the best places to build. It is as though they had such ability to know how they would stand out the best, and just be seen as the loveliest of all else around them?
I want to see your interview with the TV station ～ the castle scenes are breathtaking ～ home sweet home see you guys ～ be well
What a beautiful place.Two beautiful people with good hearts. missed your videos .
You two are so lovely and so good at sharing your adventures and thoughts. Thank you.
Dear Kirsten and Jeorg. Thank you for sharing this BEAUTIFUL video. What an absolutely wonderful place to grow up in!!! My son would have loved to have been born there! He loves that type of topography and scenery , just gorgeous! Although we do have the Pinelands here in New Jersey, US. He photographs quite a bit in our local forests but he has gone West to our HUGE National Parks for hiking and photographing bears and bison etc and of course for the amazing landscapes. I hope you get to visit your very beautiful hometown often!
You are both so polite! I would have called that person listening in 'nosey' instead 😂. Such a lovely vlog, Kirsten and Joerg. It took me right back to visiting Germany in the '80s. You have a beautiful homeland and it was a privilege to be a guest on your tour xox
Being nosey is kind of a thing especially with older people in the Swabian lands. They want to know what everybody is doing. If you have an old Swabian woman living on your street, she'll probably know you better than you know yourself
It was so lovely to see where Joerg was born and brought up, the village of Bitz so pretty and the castle stunning if the inside was comparable to the outside it must have been wonderful. Thank you both for sharing💖
Finally... glad to have found people around my age doing beautiful videos of Germany! Thank you very much! Love your videos!
Thank you! I've been lucky enough to see Castle Hohenzollern in person with a friend, and loved seeing it again with you.
That was lovely, such beautiful scenery there. So happy you got to see your families. P.s Kirsten I love your dress with the birds on sooo much!! 😘😘
Hallo liebe Kirsten und Jörg, als ich euer Video angeschaut habe als ihr auf dem Weg zu deinen Eltern wart, und in den Zug gefahren seid habe ich furchtbar Heimweh nach England bekommen:) Wir fahren auch immer durch den Tunnel. Es geht so schnell. Aber das erste Mal war es mir auch etwas komisch wenn man nicht weiß wie es ist. Eure Gesichter über die Vorfreude wieder nach Deutschland zu eurer Familie zu kommen war so schön anzusehen. Das ist Heimatliebe:)) Man merkt wie sehr ihr verbunden seid. Es ist halt nochmal was anderes ein paar Wochen Urlaub zu machen, oder für lange Zeit nach England zu ziehen. Wir waren mit dem Motorrad vor kurzem auf der Burg Hohenzollern und sind über die Abtei Beuron eine große Runde über die schöne Alb gefahren. Auch zum Wandern waren wir schon oft dort. Es ist eine wunderschöne Gegend. Ich musste lachen als Jörg schwäbisch Süßstückle sagte:)) Ja, unser Dialekt hier ist schon heftig. Aber in Cornwall ist der Dialekt oft auch sehr schwierig zu verstehen:) Ich liebe eure Videos und freue mich immer wenn ich etwas Zeit habe mir etwas auszusuchen. Bleibt gesund!!! Ganz liebe Grüße, Gabi:))
Vielen lieben Dank! Es ist wirklich eine schöne Ecke. Oh da können wir dir sagen, die Leute in Cornwall kann man super verstehen (es sei denn sie sprechen Cornish natürlich). Wir leben 40 Minuten von Liverpool und der Akzent dort ist richtig krass ('Scouse') - manche sagen, es klingt fast wie eine andere Sprache :)
Thank you for sharing!! Beautiful!!!
I just found you guys! You are so delightful! Love your videos. Thanks.
Ich freue mich, dass alles so gut geklappt hat!!! Bleibt gesund!!! 👩👍🙋🌻
Ohh thank you for taking us with you! It was so beautiful and romantic!
I enjoyed this video so much. The castle and scenery truly were outstanding! A visit with the two of you is always a pleasure and as usual the tea break was a special treat. The cakes looked delicious. If Covid hadn't messed up my travel plans I would have landed in your beautiful country this morning. This 25 minute virtual vacation made me smile and added a new "must go" spot to my future travel list! Thank you for taking us along.
For what I see Germany is.a.beautiful country well God's creation is wonderfully beautiful❤ Thank you for sharing.
I love your videos but especially of Germany. I lived there as a child and always thought of it as a fairytale with the beautiful houses and shops but will always remember the cobblestone streets. So many memories. Thank you for the tour. ❤
Thanks so much for sharing your precious time with your viewers. I recently watched "Das Jahr ohne Sommer" on UA-cam which is a most interesting doco and covers how King Wilhelm Friedrich I helped his people during those disastrous times . Well I now live in Tasmania after spending 11 years in Austria and you have got me hooked. I enjoy your channel very much and say 'ein Hoch auf' to you both. Servus ihr Beiden!
I loved this one. Thank you. I should go and visit one day, as my mother is from Germany.
What a lovely homeland...
What a wonderful trip. Hope you’ve enjoyed your time at home.
Hello again from America! I must say...and I know I have shared this sentiment before, but I do hope our paths cross one day.
Such a beautiful area! Thank you for sharing this. I also wanted to say that I love the music you select for your videos. So pretty and relaxing.
Thank you so much Stephanie!
Really how lovely…..thank you for showing me…made my day August 2021 Massachusetts USA
Welcome home to you both! leaving Germany to return must have been a sweet sadness, as just one week is no time at all, I love the places you have shown, so clean & tidy! & those cakes were so delicious looking...wunderbar! xx
Яка краса!!!
Thank you so much!
It was beautiful what you could film!
Even though I’ll always love to see more video I’m happy that you spend your time with your friends and family especially with this craziness going on I’m happy for you 💕
Thanks so much Suzi! We know but we tried to squeeze in filming, sadly more wasn't possible.
Thank you for sharing, it 's so nice to be there in your home country.
Such beautiful country ❤
You come from an absolutely beautiful place Joerg! Thank you for sharing your historical knowledge with us. Hugs to you both and, as always, for your enriching and uplifting video content. Much love from Virginia, USA! ❣️
We are so happy you like it Rhonnda, thanks so much!
I loved the videos.beautiful Germany is.
Amazing place!!!!! Kisses from Argentina
Can you imagine building that castle then the wall? Joerg what an inspirational place. My 13th gr gandfathe was Prussian now I know where the Trees family came from. His son fought in the American Revolutionary war. Thanks so much. I will be the first one in my family to learn this. They ended up in Pennsylvania with alot of German.farmers. I love your village. It is amazing. I love Bitz.. The panoramic view has no words. It is like going back in time and seeing Germany almost like no people there. Thank you so much. That train is cool.thanks for taking us with you.
I know, this is what we said as well. Building the wall around the castle and the castle itself was a huge undertaking.
Fascinating train travel! Germany was beautiful. Love you both and stay safe💕
L so enjoy your travel videos. I am missing Germany!!
What a wonderful part of the world your from. The view of the castle on the hill was really beautiful. Thank you for sharing some of your journey the tunnel looks a little claustrophobic to me even though I don’t suffer from it. I’m sure it’s fine. The cakes looked delicious. A lovely video.
so nice to take us with you to Germany. always enjoy your company.safe journey back home
Thanks so much Rita!
Late to the party in commenting however the videos are always soooooo enjoyable. The music choices are lovely. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks so much for sharing. We plan to visit Germany and it looks more beautiful than imagined.
I would have loved to see inside that castle but that is pretty much the norm everywhere these days, along with the locals peeking out there windows. So nice to see you both so happy with your brief visit to your homeland. Thank you for another lovely video.
The castle is in private hands hence filming wasn't allowed but would have been okay if it would be owned by the country. Thanks so much for watching Susan!
Beautiful, thanks for sharing.
This was an enjoyable treat ! Sorry for the long walk up to the castle...you guys are intrepid! Kudos to you both for doing this for us....the views are lovely there.
Fantastic trip!!! Thank you for sharing this!!
Hohenzollern Castle is wonderful. Thank you for taking us there. The interiors are stunning (I looked up on Google)!
Yes, it's such a gorgeous place!
Enchanting view!! (I cant put that Into words how it felt )I lived in Germany for 3 years as a child. My parents took us camping all over Germany and Europe, but we never went to that castle(and we visited many) That view was glorious 💕🇩🇪🇺🇸Greetings and thank you so much, from New Orleans.
Awesome scenery, that castle is gorgeous and I want to see more so it may now be on our list of travels. I just love UK & Germany.....Isn't Mozart from that area or close to. You guys are looking lovely. My husband's ears perk when he hears I have you guys on....that's a really good thing he relates with you guys as we are very similar in quite a few areas. Have a wonderful weekend! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much! No, Mozart was from Austria, born in Salzburg - so worth visiting too.
Lovely. Thank you
Absolutely beautiful trip thanks for taking us amazing❤️🇬🇧
A charming village! Lo ely place to grow up.
"lovely"
It really is a lovely part of Germany.
Thank you for sharing. 😍
I just came across your channel fairly recently and am so glad I did. Your videos are wonderful. I also find them very calming! Best wishes from the US. ♥
Thank you so much!
I love the journey
It’s so interesting to see your homeland 🇩🇪, especially during the pandemic when we’re not able to travel so much in general. My Husband and I haven’t travelled abroad for 3 years for health reasons (which I have fully recovered from now thankfully), so it will be really special when we can do some travelling again! Thank you both so much for making these wonderful videos 👍
Perhaps my ancestors are from here..my surname is Bitz! 😁 It looks like a beautiful place!
Thank you friends for sharing your trip to Germany! My father was stationed in Germany during the Korean War. He used to tell stories of his time there. He talked a lot about the dark breads and beer. He brought back a cuckoo clock that he bought there. My mother still has it. I would image it is 70 years old or older and still runs!
This has brought back wonderful memories of our trip to England and Germany three years ago. We stayed in Oxford for a week, then took a plane to Stuttgart and rented a car. We drove to the small village of Boll, where we had a room in a hotel for a couple nights so we could visit the castle Hohenzollern. When we got there everything was closed and no one was there. We could see the Castle on the hill from the parking lot, so we went up and spent the afternoon at the castle. So this was the very first thing we saw in Germany. Joerg, you grew up in a beautiful place. Kirsten the shuttle bus was great...we never would have made the walk up that hill.
Oh that sounds wonderful! Absolutely, the shuttle bus is great but it was too small for our taste with the pandemic so we preferred to walk, it wasn't bad at all and not far.
Loved this.!! Just yesterday I had hoped you would share some of Germany, and you did, I'm a day late coming along. I wonder of my family is from that region, my last name is Kirckhoff, here in the states it's pronounced...Kirk hoff...hearing you say your name, that's now my brother said that's the dialect the family used when saying our last name. This make me want to visit and track down my relatives, there must be some there somewhere. I know someone in my tiny town that has her binoculars at the ready to snoop on people, no kidding.!
Thank you for sharing. You are both so lovely and sweet together ❤
Beautiful
I'm not if people can actually see my comments... or maybe people just don't like them? Oh well, I love Kirsten and Joerg's videos and may not comment anymore, but will always watch them and love them!
Oh no Deborah, what happened?
@@KirstenJoerg I'm not exactly sure! But you are kind to check in, and I look forward to your next video!
I'm so happy that you were finally able to visit with family. The Swabian Alb is stunning. The clouds in the view from the castle are so beautiful, they almost looked like a painted background. The castle is very beautiful, definitely not the utilitarian style of the medieval periods. Thank you so much for taking the time to film so you could share your trip with us.
Thank you so much Kelly! We noticed the beautiful clouds when we were up there too.
Thank you so kindly for taking us on your wonderful journey home. Germany has such lovely things and it's wonderful to see the castle, though how odd that you cannot film inside it or with a drone?
The out buildings of wood so remind me of New England. Though my area is obviously Heavily English, as we don't have as much stone (and tile roofs are not really seen here in Massachuessets) the barn/outbuildings feel very much like Old New England barns.
Whilst we are stuck at home, thank you for taking us out into the world! I'm a bit spoiled in my own ocean view, one of the reasons I've started sharing it on youtube, as I felt I needed to make a bit of an escape for anyone stuck at home. In a way, it's how we all can do our part to boost one another's spirits during this odd times, eh?
Thank you again for sharing it with us and Heavens I'd love either of those cakes. At first I thought the 'cheesecake' was a Tiramisu.
Thank you! Yes but that's the same here in the UK, filming with a drone (it also depends on air travel etc.) or inside of buildings isn't always allowed. Hohenzollern is in private hands, hence we couldn't film there, it's different if it was owned by the state.
@@KirstenJoerg Oh , that does make sense. Thank you for sharing and I wonder if they have images online I'll have to check.
Would have liked to have seen Joels..family....
Fantastic! Thank you! 👏🥰🤗🇺🇸❤️
Thank you for this wonderful tour of where Joerg grew up. My favorite part was hearing some of the dialect. So interesting! I could watch a whole video just on you two discussing that 😊 Cheers from Hawaii, US ❤️
Indeed a fairy tale castle, but since Joerg is a real prince, no surprise he is from that place 😉
Hahah thanks so much! He has been fascinated with this castle since his early childhood.
Omg that train ride was amazing. I've never seen anything like that b4 x
Yes, it's such a great option and so quick too.
@@KirstenJoerg it's amazing and so handy for u to go to Germany to visit family. I love u both and thanks so much for sharing these videos. As the saying goes your learning something new everyday. Send u my love xxx
Beautiful castle with wonderful views. What a gorgeous chapel too. The rolling hills and barns shown later remind me of upstate NY, the country area that we are from. Yes, very stunning view of the castle showing the forest all over the hill around the castle. So amazing the train in your car. Loved it, very interesting
What an ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL country!! Would love to visit. Thank you for taking me along. You are blessed to be able to travel .
Love watching you guys, love the contrast between you both. Your such a cute couple. I love Europe, especially the stonework. I miss it so. Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful indeed! Thank you lovelies and welcome home.
Love it!!!!
wow, I loved it. Thank you for the time you took for us out of family time. Bless you both
That's so kind Georgia, thank you!
The view of the castle was amazingly beautiful!
Thank you for your interesting and very different approach to video making. I find it difficult to believe that you are German, your English is impeccable, better than many English people and has no trace of an accent.
Stunning! Thank you for sharing your travels with us.
Very enjoyable, thank you.😊
Hello you guys! Wow, your homeland is very beautiful! Thank you so much for taking the time to share it with us. You two are the best! Be safe and many blessings.
The woods, I'm sure were filled w/Joerg & his faithful followers when he was a boy playing all the day long. cgzone8
That is such a beautiful part of the world! You both look so happy after visiting family and friends!
So very beautiful! The castle is so majestic. How neat to grow up in its shadow
So peaceful..the world has beauty.
Thanks so much Tina!
The train is amazing love it so quick as Kirsten says❤️
