I moved from NY to Grafenwoehr 2 years ago. It's crazy seeing all the stuff I see everyday on someone else video. I hope you are enjoying it here. Especially the 32 degree temps!
Grafenwoehr was actually a pretty nice duty station. It built up alot more than it was than when I first got there in 2007. What a fun experience the whole place is!
Ja, Deutschland ist schon extrem schön! Man hört im Ausland immer: Fahrt nach Frankreich, Italien, etc. Aber hier bei uns ist einfach die Landschaft der Hammer!
0.5‰ is the limit when you drive without an accident or noticeable problems. When the police thinks you are driving conspicuously or you are involved in an accident you can get it trouble with 0.3‰ So one normal beer to your meal when you eat outside is really the limit. When you eat outside and you want to have some kind of beer, take Radler or alcohol free wheat beer (Weizen). Alcohol free Weizen is closer to the taste of its alcoholic variety than other alcohol free beers. That is what a brewer told me.
The town is still beautiful even after 39 years ago when I was there. I will never forget the cold nights in field and sharing my sleeping spot with the wild boars.
Hey guys, I fell in love with your videos of Germany and your whole adventure. Left Germany almost 30 years ago but still miss it at times. Big thank you!
& welcome to the 4 seasons in middle Europe - be prepared for up to minus 20 C in the wintertime and maybe up to 40++ C in the summertime, you'll find out quickly it's worth to store the winterstuff in the basement as soon as spring hits in - as you'll 98% wont need it for about 8 month.
I never heard of Grafenwoehr but that's really cool! I lived in Germany for a month and I must say it's a beautiful place to live. It's organized, clean and not so expensive! Woo snow!
Thank you! We've only been here for just over a month. We love to travel together so we are really happy for the opportunity! Germany is beautiful! We just have to work on the language.
Beautiful shot at 12:25 showing first the tree branches with only a few dead leaves clinging to them, then the flock of birds flying overhead. All of the other views of the town are great, but this one is unusual and very fine. Good job.

Welcome to the both (well to include the cat- three) of you. I know Grafenwöhr from my time in the German army. Not far from Bamberg, where I grew up and not far to the "Fränkische Schweiz" you definitely should visit.
Enjoy your adventure :) loved the door opening gone wrong... Germans love to have a little bit of fresh air coming in, so 'kippen und lüften' is important :)

Just stumbled over this videos. Really enjoy them! Thank you guys for showing so much love and curiosity for Germany. Now I badly wanna travel and explore the United States again! 😄👍
God I miss Germany... Lived in the town of Euerbach, just outside of Schweinfurt as part of the US 3 ID in the early 90's. Trained in Grafenwöhr many times, and what a nice area you guys are in. FWIW, the couches and chairs you have are identical to what my flat had... Amazing. Seeing your lovely video may just get me back to my old traveling self, and go back... Unfortunately the kaserne/barracks I was attached to are now demolished, as of a few years ago... Broke my heart. Good luck guys, and thanks.
Haha it’s funny that this was in my recommendation 😂 my husbands military too and we are living in Vilseck right now! And we also brought our cat! 😂 we are in Graf all the time! Hope you’re enjoying Europe so far! Make a point to travel outside Germany every block leave!
Oooh, moving from San Diego to Germany is going to be a biiig change. Got some relatives in South Pasadena. Welcome to Germany. Hopefully you will like it here. Some tips: Get used to the 'brisk' weather. Cold, rainy, foggy in autumn, some snow in winter (probably), strangely sweaty hot in summer. No AC nearly anywhere. Recycling is key. Central heating via radiators is normal, no air heating usually. But the housing on base looks somewhat 'Americanized' so it might be more similar to what you are used from home. Careful on the Autobahn. No passing on the right, at any time while the traffic is still flowing faster than 60km/h (appr. 40 mph) and its not congested. You are only allowed to pass on the right if all lanes are congested and the traffic is flowing at a speed of 60 km/h (40mph) or lower. At all other times only pass to the left. If you are in a lane and there is a reasonably large gap to your right and you aren't driving faster than the traffic to your right, please move over. It's called the Rechtsfahrgebot (the drive right requirement). Sure, it's not necessary to weave in and out of traffic, just use your common sense, but do try to clear a lane reasonably fast. On the left lane always check your rear view mirror. There will ALWAYS be someone faster than you, given enough time. Even in areas with speed limits. Careful with the current, its 230V, 50Hz, not 110V, 60Hz. Even if you've got a converter the Hz can screw over timed devices because the timing is calculated by the Hz which is not changed by the smaller converters. Especially clocks on the current tend to run slow very quickly if you brought some from the States. Nope, they ain't broke, it's just the current. Possibly on base it is converted to 110V, but I'm not sure about that. The sockets do look like standard Schuko-sockets (Schutzkontakt, safty or protection contacts) that are standard for Germany. German's will correct you no matter what. We are just that way. It's not meant to be hurtful or insulting (at least most of the time) but it might come across as rude. Most of the time the Germans just want you to learn a bit. Apologies if that bothers you. If you give even the slightest indication that you want to learn and use German in everyday situations most Germans will be very accomodating to accents, little foibles, etc. Now, enough doom and gloom, have fun in Germany and Europe. Because you will have awesome chances to travel around Europe easily during your downtime.
Wow, thanks Rusty! Where were you when we moved? We could have used all that information months ago! We learned pretty much all of that by now, but thank you so much for the detailed comment :) Thank you for being yet another helpful and welcoming German.

Your house looks odd to German eyes. You hardly see any top loading washing machines in Germany and I never so that kind of plugins in Germany either (Because of the different voltage and frequency).

i think this house was build for u.s. army members. and the place where they get the keys for the house looks like army barracks. maybe civil persons can rent the houses now, because there are not so mutch u.s. soldiers deployed to germany. so that makes totaly sense for americans who want to live in germany and dont want to rebuy evereything.

Are one/both of you active duty or DA civilians? I’m a DA civilian and am considering making the move to Germany, possibly Grafenwoehr, so your videos are very helpful and informative!
We are both civilians and are really happy to be here in Grafenwoehr. I'm glad to here the videos are helping! Let me know if you have any questions about living here or the process of moving.
the sockets show this place is planned for foreigners (4.42) as well the writings in english (heating) and the A/C's (normal houses don't have) ....not a surprise knowing that there is a big US-Army camp.......with a few words: travelling like a snail in your own house.......Even the word " 3 bedroom-house" is unusual since nobody cares you use those rooms for bed's, toys, gym etc.
Damn I live in Dresden and could have given you a way cooler Tour, with some background information about the history of this city. But welcome to Germany. Btw. I have no Idea why this turned up in my recommended page
Thanks! One of the most beautiful cities I've seen. We had to take a bus there because we didn't have a car yet, but we'll definitely go back. So maybe next time!

How did you get housing on post as a civilian?
Kenneth, my wife works as DOD civilian for the army. So she is my sponsor and they pay for our housing. We are very very lucky to be here.
Welcome to my homeland, enjoy all the beauty things and all kinds of weather ;)
Greedings from Weiden, next city of Grafenwöhr 🙂😎
Thank you! We've been here for over a year now and I love Weiden. I made a video there called "Making Friends in Germany - A Locals tour of Weiden". You should check it out :)
wtf 2018 Striezelmarkt Dresden. i was there too. such a beautiful City
So funny i am living near by :) welcome :)
im not sure if its a great idea moving into a whole different country without knowing the culture and language bavaria is very special in that way.
Did you teach through DODEA?
Welcome to Germany❤😊
Thank you! We love it so far.
Welcome in Germany!
Nice Vid ! ... Welcome to Germany ! ... as you see ... a beer can make you so efficient ^^ ... Kitchenwork :D
Chores are much better with beer!
Weiden old town, my home!
Are one/both of you active duty or DA civilians? I’m a DA civilian and am considering making the move to Germany, possibly Grafenwoehr, so your videos are very helpful and informative!
We are both civilians and are really happy to be here in Grafenwoehr. I'm glad to here the videos are helping! Let me know if you have any questions about living here or the process of moving.
the sockets show this place is planned for foreigners (4.42) as well the writings in english (heating) and the A/C's (normal houses don't have) ....not a surprise knowing that there is a big US-Army camp.......with a few words: travelling like a snail in your own house.......Even the word " 3 bedroom-house" is unusual since nobody cares you use those rooms for bed's, toys, gym etc.
Damn I live in Dresden and could have given you a way cooler Tour, with some background information about the history of this city. But welcome to Germany.
Btw. I have no Idea why this turned up in my recommended page
Thanks! One of the most beautiful cities I've seen. We had to take a bus there because we didn't have a car yet, but we'll definitely go back. So maybe next time!
My hometown
Oh you guys live in nets?
Welcome to Germany
Base housing I miss it.
Military or a contactor ?
Chelsea got a really great opportunity as a contractor. We are very lucky!
Obviously through the military. No one gets stuff done that quick in Germany otherwise.
Dude so you’re living in Germany?!?! What a trip bro. Crazy, but really cool at the same time. Congrats
The alcohol limit 0.5 is outdated, they changed it to 0.3
Advocatus Diaboli it’s still 0.5 if you don’t have an accident and if you drive normally if the police thinks you’re too impaired it’s 0.3
oh man, everyone knows that in Grafenwoehr is the largest military training area.
And they are very loud at times :/
Kartoffelsalut as they say in Nuevo Alemaoam
Welcome to the best country in the world ♥

I am surprised about all the english labels on the products you bought. Seems like Grafenwöhr is not an ordinary German town? Enjoy!
TheCooocy I think it’s a US military thing
