  • Do you ever go to the North Sea on holiday? I sometimes feel like I´m on a mission to explain why North Germany is so popular with the Germans as a holiday destination. I think that foreigners might turn up and expect to be wowed in a specific way. But the magic of these places lies in the effect they have on you. True “Erholung” - a word that means relaxation, recovery, rejuvenation all in one. That´s what you experience when you stay long enough and open yourself to the unique feeling of an Auszeit - some time out - here on the German insider tip - the East Frisian islands.

    My meditative videos show a calming and artistic view of the places I visit and the quiet, peaceful wanders I take through them. Medieval villages, picturesque cottages, beautiful cities. Relax and escape with me from the busy bustling world to my dreamy and serene slow living way of seeing my surroundings. Experience the magic of peering into the past and being in a fairytale, just for a little while.

    You have wonderfully captured the feeling and healing power of the East Frisian islands. Because as a native of Borkum, I have visited all the East Frisian islands in my youth with a sailboat and they all have their own charm and this healing feeling.
    You have wonderfully worked out why the Germans like to vacation on these islands and if it is only a long weekend. The deceleration and slowing down of time has a healing effect at any time of the year. In addition, the fresh air in which Borkum has a special position, because it is classified with high sea climate (high iodine content/3 spa clinics). To recover it does not always have to be the hot south like Spain, Italy or France, but a week on the East Frisian islands with long walks on the beach with a fresh breeze does wonders and recharges the battery. The weather doesn't matter if you get involved. You also notice very quickly how the air stimulates your appetite :-). Your films are so chilling and relaxing - keep up the good work Lauren!
    Here is a link how a film team have produced a promotional film for Borkum (fall / winter season) and yours comes very close. Many greetings from Oldenburg dear Lauren. Welwn ni chi'n fuan
    UA-cam does not accept the link. The film is called »Borkum - In der Saison der Sinne« (Imagefilm) in UA-cam-

      Oh wow, thank you so much! That really means a lot. I have also been to Borkum - I absolutely loved it there, too, and you are completely right: each island is different and has its own feeling. That’s why it’s so hard to describe in my videos! How fantastic to have sailed to them. It sounds so free and fun.
      Thank you so much, Schoppi!

    interesting and calming, not that i need that, i invented "laid back" :) I am not a beach person, but i can appreciate that other people like them. For me it is the smaller mountains, here in the US the appalachian foothills. They speak to me, make me smile when i drive through them. Reminds me of home, the Rhoen. Nature has a way of talking to you. just have to listen. german streetfood like currywurst has no pretense of being "actual food". They are what you eat instead, when you are out and about. Unlike here in the US where Pizza and burgers, and subway sandwiches have taken the place of food. @lauren, do you know why the germans love the north sea beaches? ..... no brits to have towel wars with :)

      I love the mountains. But in Wales, we always have the sea close, too, and I can spend hours and hours on a beach, I don’t need the sun for that either. The appalachian foothills sound pretty amazing, though. Thanks for watching and commenting, Uli xxx

      @@LaureninGermany When we moved to Oregon, she never had another issue, until she married and moved to Los Angeles. I'm sorry that you all those allergies, that has to be frustrating and keep you on guard at all times. If you have any allergies to local plants or pollen, try adding local unprocessed honey to your daily diet. I have a small apiary (hobby, one of too many) and the folks I supply with honey swear (nicely) that it helps them with their allergies.
      I sincerely hope your action plan will help you to circumvent breathing issues. Just a thought, it must be awful for you to be around folks that smoke?! When I visit, that's the number one thing that get's me. I chat too much....have a great day!

      Maybe you can answer a question for me? I found a bee on my doorstep a few days ago, still alive but looking very tired. I put him on a tissue and put some drops of maple syrup on it, and put the whole thing in a bird box that had grass etc still in from the Summer. I think he was drinking the maple syrup. I don’t have sugar or honey here, but I could get some if that’s what a tired bee needs. Did I do the right things? Or what should I do? When there is no snow I put them on a flower. We have a wild meadow garden, not a lawn, specially for the bees and insects.

    A lot of UA-camrs that I follow are based in the south of Germany and of course it's a wonderful area of Germany, Bavaria and Baden Württemberg are really nice with a wonderful landscape, but that's not all. Germany offer's so much more and I try to recommend the northern parts of Germany, because the people there are totally different.
    The language is different, the culture is a bit different and also the food and beverages. It's hard to compare, but important to make that experience to understand Germany a a lot better. I'm a huge fan of Germany's islands at all and The Frisians have a unique tea culture in Germany.

      I‘m lucky enough to travel from Bavaria, where I live, to the North Sea and the Baltic Sea often. I totally agree. I feel the North is a place where you need a bit of time to let the magic work and I constantly recommend people try to visit to get the whole German experience.

Eine bessere Entspannung nach einem stressigen Tag kann es wohl kaum geben! Du zeigst mit Deinen Videos, wie viel Schönes Deutschland zu bieten hat, das vergisst man zu oft! Ich glaube ein Leben reicht nicht aus, um all die schönen Orte in diesem Land zu besuchen, aber dank Dir sieht man zumindest einen kleinen Teil davon! Dafür ein großes Dankeschön! Ich wünsche Dir alles Gute und noch viele schöne Erlebnisse in unserem Land! Liebe Grüße aus Wilhelmshaven, Michael
