@@richardb1318 I think I'm choosing option 3 too, in a less dramatic way. Lemme get my schedule for the year next year and see. I'd like to finally make it to Europe.
I think I can help you a bit, don't get analysis paralysis, it is possible and here's some info: 1) www.daad.de/deutschland/nach-deutschland/voraussetzungen/en/9198-financing/ (they have offices in South Africa to help) 2) Masters are offered in English but the downside is you generally have to pay them, as opposed to normal education in Germany which is free or has a very low fee 3) Try do a bit of research on the area you want to go to, if the area doesn't matter look at the universities and decide from there. I decided that I wanted to be close to Munich because I wanted to study at TUM. 4) Check out this guy's vlog about studying here: ua-cam.com/users/himolikd 5) You can get visas to come out here and study, once you graduate you have a chance to look for work 6) Make it happen
I'm glad to see all the interest in Germany. In the USA, Germany doesn't seem to be on the top of the list of countries to visit. I lived there for six years. A great country and wonderful people but with a lot of contrasts. Germany is so much more than Oktoberfest!
Hi Jeff, I'm not a native Afrikaans speaker and my Afrikaans improved a lot in the last two years from working in an environment with more native speakers. It does help with sentence structure in some places and understanding the past tense, but German is a complicated language due to the masculine, feminine and neutral. There are free language lessons available online and via an app, check out: www.dw.com/de/deutsch-lernen/deutschkurse/s-2068 and you can try the placement test as a start to see how much of an understanding you already have. The app can take you all the way to B1 level German, there are 6 levels from A1 (beginner) to C2 (Fluent).
Keep Positive Richard, great presentation and here is hoping all will work out for you.
Thanks Ash!
I had to watch this !!😁
Great content
Hi my boy, loving your videos ...miss you x

Love from South Africa, enjoy your German adventure. Nice video.
You did a great job visiting your ancestors' home continent .
I like it! Glad you're having a good time there.
Thanks!!!! Sometimes I read and get ideas, other times I just get ideas. You must come this side, I can show you bread, wurst and some castles.

@@richardb1318 so excited!

The world's your oyster, what do you want to do in Germany?
apart from living and working there,i want to do my masters in mechanical engineering in Germany.
I think I can help you a bit, don't get analysis paralysis, it is possible and here's some info:
1) www.daad.de/deutschland/nach-deutschland/voraussetzungen/en/9198-financing/ (they have offices in South Africa to help)
2) Masters are offered in English but the downside is you generally have to pay them, as opposed to normal education in Germany which is free or has a very low fee
3) Try do a bit of research on the area you want to go to, if the area doesn't matter look at the universities and decide from there. I decided that I wanted to be close to Munich because I wanted to study at TUM.

6) Make it happen
I just quickly looked at his vlog, and there's this video which is up your alley: ua-cam.com/video/1tYn9VjJGTQ/v-deo.html
Hey man, any update on your situation? You still in Germany?
You are fleeing South Africa.
I'm glad to see all the interest in Germany. In the USA, Germany doesn't seem to be on the top of the list of countries to visit. I lived there for six years. A great country and wonderful people but with a lot of contrasts. Germany is so much more than Oktoberfest!
I've seen and met a lot of Americans out here, there are two young Americans learning the language with me at the moment.
P.S. Thanks for the comment!
WHADDUP, BRAH!

Do you speak Afrikaans? If so, does it give you a head start with learning German at all?
