Beautiful video, top tier storytelling
😂🙌🏻
Great video Fernando! Very well edited, you are doing a great job on the videos o/. I'm going to Germany for work, and I'm very excited to face these new challenges, and I feel exactly how you said, jumping into the nothingness to see what happens! I'm tired of the security issues in my country (Brazil), being robbed, life threatened. Thanks for sharing your experiences!
Yes man! Full push and never give up! New life new challenges but very possible for sure! All the best and be sure to write me on IG, because there I have Munich group that you can always ask questions
Your videos are so good that i subrcribed!
Dankeee
Cool video. It's also refreshing to watch a narrative of someone being aware of their privileges and how this is handy in some process. Really liked that you pointed out the struggle others might face, especially if they come from Latin American countries.
Absolutely man! Important to be self aware, but in city's like Munich, there are so many students and immigrants that I feel that it doesn't really make a difference, but equally you never know
Amazing video!
Really insightful and educational video- Love watching your channel and learning along the way!
thank you for watching!
This video was so fun and so funny!!! the hallo part was hilarious lol I need moooore
Gracias Vale!
I've been preparing to try and move to Munich this next summer. Love the content and it's also super helpful for someone like myself!
Happy that it helps! Hope you have a smooth transition
Die Qualität deiner Kamera und deines Mikros ist echt super. Wirkt wie bei einem UA-cam-Kanal mit 50k+ Abos. Das Video ist super geschnitten und die Struktur ist sehr kurzweilig und informativ gestaltet. Ich hoffe du bekommst noch wesentlich mehr Zuschauer und ich freu mich auf mehr Beiträge von dir 👍
Vielen Dank Radie! Ich versuche mein bestes zu geben 💪🏻 danke nochmal für dein komment 🙌🏻
Nice Intro bro
Love your channel
Thank you man! Trying to make as good content as I can 💪🏻
Great video Fernando, I agree. experience almost the same... Learning the language is important but not until it takes up the main priority reason the quality value of you as person.. especially in professional field it can be not that hard.... It is a process in almost everything... Sometimes it is doable but sometimes it is very looooooong process indeed... 😅😅
Exactly!
this is amazing thank you for your great energy!
Thank you for watching 💪🏻😎
may i ask what jobs did you get after your first one? I am moving to Berlin in a few months from NY
First, I was a working on a restaurant, then in events, because of the flexibility and then Video. But if you can start working right away on what you like, that's the best! Let me know if you have any questions
thanks so much! love your videos you have an excellent video personality 🎉
would you mind if i asked another question… due to the war in Ukraine are there any food or supply shortages right now? i heard electricity is really expensive ? i’m moving with a baby and just want to be prepared thank you so much for your time
Hello. I always watch your video and for me has many information. thanks. if it is possible make a video about the condition of Ausbildung in Germany. 🌹
Thank you for watching! Sadly I never did an Ausbildung, so I am not that good on the topic :/
I really liked your honesty, mentioning about your privileges of EU passport. Good luck with the future adventures and your UA-cam channel.
Thank you Rajveer! Very happy that you like the video 🙌🏻 yes the Eu pass is for sure a privilege
i'm from trinidad and tobago, we're actually neighbours with venezuela. sadly, our country has a huge crime rate, close to that of venezuela, and it's almost impossible to get a job without having connections to pull strings for you. i'm only 19, but i really want to move to germany. is it hard to get a job even without a university degree, but with high school/secondary education qualifications? also have you noticed any discrimination from the german population, i am a bit worried that i might face racism because of my indo-caribbean roots. keep up the great videos btw, much love from trinite y tobago :)
No man is not hard. I don't have higher education and I worked a lot in different jobs. The only thing you need is to know really good German. If you can work hard and now german then you should be fine.
In big city's like Munich or Berlin there is no discrimination but in small towns even I can get discriminated.
Just move to a big city. But be prepare to work hard and always invest in your education and to grow and never stay in the same level
Moin Fernando, danke für das Video! Ich mache mir eigentlich schon Gedanken, in München zu ziehen) Die Sauberkeit der Stadt ist aber für mich von großer Bedeutung. Kannst du mir bitte sagen, wie es wirklich aussieht?
Sehr sauber muss ich sagen 💪🏻 bin sehr glücklich hier 😎
HALLOOO! Most definetly passive agressive😂
Te quieroo
Niceee!!!
Ya el último de Alemania 🤞
It’s very helpful! I hope Japanese passport works well too lol
Ran! Thank you!
Hi Fernando, thanks a bunch for the video. I'd like to know about how to get scholarship to continue master degree from German government/institution for woman over 50. Is it possible? Looking forward to hearing the good news. Vielen Danke
Hi! No idea really, I guess you could search it or contact directly the university you would like to apply to. I know they will answer very quickly
When did ur granparents moved to Venezuela? Was it easy to get italian passport?
My grandmother move after or during the war and then landed in Brazil, from Brazil she move to venezuela., I can apply for an Italian nationality because of her. Not that hard to be honest, but you have to go through a process as anything in life
Do your parents still live in Venezuela? How do you deal with homesickness?
Well my Dad still lives there but all my other family members are in different countries now. I do feel a bit home sick here and there. But I just go to Madrid and find all the good venezuelan food. So I am good for now 😂🤞
🚀🚀🚀
Ya el utimo
Ah, so you have Italian citizenship. I was thinking you were Venezuelan. Here I was all excited that as a non-EU American things could go smoothly!
😂 sorry man. But as an American you do have benefits I think. Way more then other countries for sure
Haha, no worries. I'm glad you're Italian! Well, we'll see. Please consider a video on The Netherlands. Up until recently, I had my eyes set there. Then I saw Not Just Bikes release a video on Freiburg. I was like, that's the city! I want to live somewhere without a a car. I'd be curious if you considered The Netherlands. And how you came upon choosing Germany other than what relatives and friends said.
@ShelterDogs I love that channel! Well man, don't really. I really like munich because of what I have said on my vidoes. But also because is very clean and there is a lot of thing that can be done here where you can grow if you want to. I see that there is a market to innovate an be disruptive and that's why I am still here. But let's see. Next year will be the year where I put all my ideas into a test.
But overall life here is great 👍
Halloooooooooooooo!
Classic
So, now you're from Italy or Venezuela?🤔🤔
Both! But born in Venezuela
@@fernandotabora that's interesting 💫🌸
@@zainabayadm I like it
German here, well the one who is also danish, but life circumstanses make me to move to Germany in my late 20'. First of all you live in a big City (it looks like München) and that's not the whole Germay. That might be also a reason why they did not care if you speak german: big touristic place, BUT in most cases (and in germany) it is not easy to find a job. Germans, who are finishing engineering at the university search for YEARS for position. It is a lie, that Germany needs people to work, Government is simply shitting around to show EU that still is a economical power (which is not). I think you have been just lucky.
60k is not a high salary (yet it is consider to exceptionally good salary), compared to how much taxes you have to pay, rent, food and media. Expecially in München where you have to pay minimum 2000 euro for fx 60m2, not counting media at the end of the year. But as I said, 60K it is considered a high salary, and most people earn like 40k.
My salary dropped drastically since I am in germany (I am programmer) and I am more and more annoyed how much everything cost. The prices are almost the same as in Denmark, and our salaries are twice as much as in DE.
If you count for good job with the possibilities to get promoted- sorry sweety but you must know perfect german, be german or American 🤣
Germany is in the crisis now, completely being lost in technological world, being behind with shitty cars, where all of the world shift to electrics. Innovation and technology it is something that Germans are scared of and it will be something that is already pushing this country way behind when it comes to economy.
Your language is probably not at the best level, therefore they do not speak with you german- sorry, but I am honest.
I don't know man, I don't fully agree. But I hear you.
I am not an engineer and I just googled an avarage price. But 60k is not bad. For sure I know that to live comfortably in munich you need 3k or a bit more.
Over all is way cheaper than the US, and also remember that we had covid and also inflation, that push the prices up. But still with that is not bad. Could be way worse, belive me.
It also depends on your mindset and what are you doing to earn more. I have learn that it all depends on where you position yourself and with who. There is money out there, you just have to get to know the right people and fully send it.
As I Said on my video. I move here with nothing and still manage to have a great life in Germany with out any degrees.
I am not trying to be negative against you or anything, but I do still think there is way more possibility here and you just have to sometimes work harder to get where you want to be. Obviously sometimes the market is not optimal, but is all about highs and lows.
Also regarding the german part, I think it's because of my accent and they just want to be polite, but I respect your thought.
Finally I would say, go to a 3r world country and see for yourself that even do germany is not perfect for you, is for sure better then a lot of countries in the world
Also, you don't have to pay minimum 2k for an apartment, I have friends paying less. I pay 400 euros for my room. It's all about being patient and finding good deals.
We love EU ✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽❤️❤️❤️
Hahahahah nice joke na?
5:14 if you dont like europe go back to venezuela
Did I say I didn't like it? I was being proud of the eu 😂
Eu mother fu.... is written. Go back to eat arepas.
