GERMAN MAN DIDN‘T WANT ME TO SEE THIS PLACE

- Culture shocks are real. I have decided to share my experiences of life in Germany as a Brit, as well as the beautiful places I am lucky enough to visit.
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.

👩🏻👋🏻 I´m Celtic, (Welsh), and I feel very much at home in beautiful Germany.
I feel a strong desire to share these moments of beauty with you, in the hope that it will also lift your spirits. All my videos will be calm and with no loud noises or sudden bright lights. 👼

A Celtic woman shows me the beautiful unknown sites of my home country, unbelievable. Thank you😉
Ah, you didn‘t know about the Blautopf- I‘m so pleased to have introduced it to you! Thank you!
It's a mystery. A really beautiful lady from Wales moved to Germany, just to show us how beautiful Germany is, and not even her German husband reminds that.
Crazy World 😊
Well, I‘m very happy to do it! ❤️
Germany is such a small country,. but has so many beautyfull and mysthical places! and much history too. Thanks again for your videos!
Oh, wait until you see tonight´s video! If I ever finish....
Thank you, aka99!
Germany is no small country but a big medium country (Nr. 63 from 195-200 countries in the world by area / Nr. 19 by population / 3rd. largest economy on the planet after the US and China) ...
As a Brit, Germany is huge! As a Welsh woman...well...!
The same in Danish:
Skimmel = white(ish) horse or fungus.
Mølle = Mill or but. Yes, parents often use the word mølle, when talking about the but/behind to their kids.
How funny that Mølle means both those words. I‘m trying to work out why…
@@LaureninGermany I am afraid you will be thinking a long time.
I just looked it up. It is not know why the word mølle is used for behind. It started as a regional word and actually where I live (island Fyn), but it was later used all over the country.
So I became a tiny bit wiser today.
BTW, what would a Schimmel Pferd be called in English? I tried the translator, it said Rotten Horse!! It can't be correct??
Actually, we call a Schimmel a grey. The reasons are clearer than mill-bottoms!
And next try to visit the "Aachtopf".. Much more impressing, 'cause warm water coming up from the deep, and strange plants growing in this warm water. I was fascinated😮
It sounds brilliant, I will definitely go!
Blautopf sounds a bit like one of those boozes prepared in big bowls with rum and fruits as main ingredients to get a whole company terminally sloshed. 🤭
When it comes to southern Germany, Swabia actually is my favourite. I just feel the kind of friendliness with the people there most, their welcoming ways. I often went to Audi in Neckarsulm to deliver and pick up cars that required special attention due to technical issues. Nowhere else was I greeted by the Audi staff like there. "Ahjo, do isch'r wied'r!" presented with a big smile! 🤗
"But don't ask me to recite the Swabian tongue-twister. I couldn't possibly."
😏 And then she proceeds to do _precisely_ that. 🤷♂😄
Ha ha! I impressed myself, I must admit!
I have, many times, been _struck_ by the knack Germany seems to have for blending a nation of efficient _industry_ and a nation of natural _beauty._
Yes, that‘s very very German, you‘re right. You also see it in Ulm, and in my shots of Heidenheim in last week‘s video (What Germans think of Norway).
I am sure there is nobody that present the beauty of Germany with more love, positivity and positive vibes than you.
If you ever end your musical career, whether I hope for you will never be, think about becoming a professional presenter for Germany tourism.
They should pay you loads of money, because nobody could do it better!
I‘d love to do both! Thank you so much for your lovely words!
Interesting - you discover Germany's beautiful places, we travel through the UK and are fascinated by the beauty of the "island". We have certainly fallen in love with the country and its people.
And I am fascinated by your incredibly pure pronunciation, purest Oxford English.
There is beauty everywhere, that‘s for sure.
Yes, my accent is a product of my education as a singer- but both Welsh and very occasionally something else peeks through….
Beautiful area around the blautopf. There are also some caves in the area that are worth checking out.
Ah- the Charlottenhöhle? I‘ve never been. The area is really special, I love it.
Die Landschaft und die Natur die den Blautopf um gibt sieht wunderschön aus, da bekommt man gleich Lust dort hinzufahren und diesen Ort zu besuchen. 💜👍
Mach das, Blondkatze! Es ist es wert!
you make experience my extended homecountry with more open eyes and a lot more appreciation. thank you so much ❤
How lovely! Thank you.
Wenn es wärmer ist und die Eisdielen offen haben, fahre ich gern mit dem Rad hin. Von Ulm ist das nur ein Katzensprung und eine wunderschöne Strecke durchs Blautal.
Ja, die Strecke is atemberaubend. Die ganze Gegend ist traumhaft schön.
Hi Lauren, we have something like that too: the Aachtopf, where the Danube comes out again, becomes the Radolfzeller Aach and flows into Lake Constance, the Rhine and then into the North Sea. 🤗
Omg that sounds amazing! I will definitely go asap!
Oooohhh... das klingt entzückend!
Morgen, Arnoux!
@@sisuguillam5109 Guten Morgen Sisuuuh

🥰@@sisuguillam5109
What a charming little village! I love the blue water! 💙💙💙 Of course it's magical! 🧚♀ Can't wait to see your next trip there when you are going to visit the old town. 🥰
I have a good excuse to go back, asap! How are you, my dear? I haven‘t seen you here for ages. I hope life is good?
@@LaureninGermany I'm great! I just took a lot of time off from social media - 6 months. I'm going to slowly return. I'm not really a tech person so I enjoy the peace away from the internet. ☺ I do miss watching my favorite travel channel though! 😇 Can't wait so see your next adventure!
Social media breaks are wonderful. I stopped using Facebook and it changed my life. Now I use it all for this channel, but it´s different.
Wonderful video again Lauren, love your travels in Germany, what a beautiful country, and that coming from someone who lives in Wales !
Ah, fantastic, thank you! I´ll be filming in Wales this year, touch wood. Both so beautiful!
Hi Lauren, the suffix -le is a shortening of the High German suffix -lein and means small . so a Gang is a passageway and a Gängle is a small passageway ;)
Ob, thank you! I didn‘t know that.
A beautiful journey to ease the soul.
Aw, that‘s lovely!
Blautopf is beautiful! And the landscape around is wonderful. 😂😂😂😂
Amazingly so, you‘re right!
my favourite Aunt lives in Blaubeuren and I am so glad you visited. The Blautopf is truly magical.
I love your such positive videos.
Ah, thank you! How lovely that she lives there. What a beautiful pleace.
Hallo Lauren, ich bin immer wieder begeistert wenn ich Deine Videos sehe. Ja der Blautopf ist wunderschön, er hat für mich etwas mystisches, besonders wenn man aus dem Walde hinten auf ihn schaut. Ich weiß, die Strecke nach Ulm ist auch sehr sehenswert, fahre sie immer wieder gerne. Ich wünsche Euch noch ein schönes Restwochenende. 👍👍👍
Ja, mystisch, das stimmt! Und heute war ich schon wieder wo mystisches- das wirst Du auch mögen, denke ich.
Die Strecke ist eine meiner Lieblingsgegenden! Wahnsinn.
It was so nice to see you laughing so hard.
How adorable was that and it was to video i needed today to enjoy the evening. Thank you so much!!
Oh, it was sooooo funny!!! I‘m glad it amused you, too, Robert! Have a lovely evening!
@@LaureninGermany
You are so wonderfully natural and authentic, I really enjoy watching your videos, listening to your great voice and the hearty laugh is contagious
@@RobertZander-yz3bgaw. I‘m blushing! Thank you!
I just love how you are able to get completely excited like a little child about beautiful simple things such as a timber frame house or a pond. I also appreciate your calm style of editing. Kind of rare on youtube. Dankeschön dafür...And yes, Wales is also breathtakingly beautiful, i have been there and immediately fell in love.
Thank you so much. Being so clearly moved is certainly good for my profession (singer)! I don‘t like the hectic, noisy editing styles. Despite my excitement, I like peace and quiet…
I will be laughing and smiling for at least the next few days, if not weeks! 😃😄 ❤️🤗❤️
Perfect. I hope whatever was getting you down is temporary, sweetheart ❤🤗🤗🤗❤️
@@LaureninGermany Thank You so much again and again! *Knuddelalarm* 🤗🤗🤗
@@bianca2817thinking of you! ❤
Thinking of You, too! ❤
Ich live in the Rems-Murr-Kreis. Not that far away....Between Stuttgart and Schwäbisch Gmünd...🤣🤣🤣 We also have beautiful places (Welzheimer Wald) and it's also wine country... We even have a town called Weinstadt...🤓 ...Also poet and folk song composer Friedrich Silcher was born there...
It‘s a fantastic part of the country!
@@LaureninGermany Some known songs from Silcher. Maybe you've also have sung them: Muss I denn zum Städele hinaus, In einem kühlen Grunde, Der Mai ist gekommen, Wenn alle Brünnlein fließen, Alle Jahre wieder (Xmas song)...
Of course I know his songs, In einem kühlen Grunde, most of all, but I never sang any, to my memory´s knowledge. Now it´s going round in my head...
I need to return with my bike. Great place to explore
Definitely, the whole area!
Wow, that is a very nice area, I really enjoyed the video. It was all very good to the near end, when you engaged in food torture😀 It's always a joy to see you. Take good care!
Oh, I love those cigköfte! So tasty…! I am right at the end of a weight-loss programme, Peter, so it was torture for me to watch, while editing too! Lol!
I never felt at home in my country of birth. Now I'm in the country my Ancestor is from and I'm finally home. Lau's Story is lovely.
Aw, how wonderful! How are you, cocobunita?
@@LaureninGermany Aside from having Warnstreiks today and having to walk to and from work I'm lovely thanks! I'm writing my Master thesis this semester and Might go to Tromsø (I feel like I've mentioned this already). I'm learning Danish 😁God weekend!
@@cocobunitacobuni8738omg I was going to do mine this semester. I don‘t know if I‘m going to be able to. Good luck!
No, I don‘t think you said! How cool! I hope to go, too- wouldn‘t it be funny if we met there!
Learning Danish! Woah, that‘s the most complicated accent, I think!
@@cocobunitacobuni8738good luck with the thesis!
@@LaureninGermanyIch steh immer noch in den Startlöchern um Korrektur zu lesen... nicht das ich Ahnung vom Thema haben werde... aber ich bin willens es zu versuchen!
Beautiful Schwaben ❤️ You have some incredible views on the area, and I love your banter against us, Swabians 😂 Thanks for another great video:)
I love Swabia! And I’m glad you don‘t mind the teasing ❤️
You're the imbodyfication of good vibes for me. :)
Ahhh how wonderful! Thank you so much!
Hi. Lovely video.could you please write the names of the 2 places. Thank you
I was at the Blautopf in Blaubeuren.
Danke für das Kunstwerk. Du hast mich neugierig auf den Blautopf gemacht. Ich sollte ihn wirklich besuchen.
Unbedingt! Es ist einfach bezaubernd dort. Klein und besonders, mit weitere schöne Sachen um jeder Ecke.
Und danke, Peter, falls Du meinen anderen nicht gesehen hast. Wie toll von Dir, schon wieder! Danke!
Aber bitte dort nicht tauchen...Gefährlich...🤔🤓🤣 Ist deshalb auch seit 1980 für die Allgemeinheit gesperrt.
Keine Sorgen, keine Chance davon!!!
Your videos always make me happy. Thank you for that!
You are so welcome. Your comments do the same for me, Peter.
Ok, wunderschön. Ich war schon verwirrt, denn in Essing bei Kelheim gibt es auch einen Blautopf.🤗
Oh, ist es wahr?! Da muss ich auch hin!
@@LaureninGermany Ja, aber recht klein. Der Nebenarm der Altmühl, hat die gleiche schöne Farbe. Es ist wirklich zauberhaft auch mit den ganzen Burgen.
7:00 that's the swabian 'Abbey Road'
Nice to see you in good health again
How funny!!! Well done!
Actually, I got ill after I filmed this, but I am well again, thank you!
Walk(le) on the (southern) Wild side...🎤🤣🤣
Haaaa!!!!
To my knowledge, the Swabians are the only ones to have a diminutive for "Gott" and they use in greetings like "Grüß Gottle" or in an ejaculation/deep sigh/heartfelt groan (select your best translation for "Stoßseufzer") "Ach du liabs Herrgottle vo' Biberach".
That‘s sounds like Bayerisch-Schwaben, too!
@@LaureninGermany Yes, -- when I talk about language I don't respect political borders. 🙂
Ha! Neither does language, not since... 10000´s of years, anyway! Gut so.
at least Swabians should immediately also tell a women from a Celtic region about the Celtic 'Heuneburg' in Baden Wuerttemberg (archaeological and reconstruction site of an 2500 years old Celtic city/Hillfort - the one Herodotus and other Greeks already referred to and traded with) ..
Oh! I will look in to that, thank you!
wunderbar i love you le means little
Thank you!
Lovely area, however when I was there a few years ago the pond didn't have such intensive blue color. Maybe depends on the weather mirroring blue sky etc.
I just wonder that you called the Stauwehr a waterfall. This particular Stauwehr, Wehr or Stauwerk is obviously used for blocking some water to use it's energy for driving the hammer mill. Isn't there an specific word for this in English as well?
BTW, I never heared that tongue twister in svabian dialect before, but it reminded me of another one in High-German (Hochdeutsch) we tried to speak as kids.
It goes: Blaukraut bleibt Blaukraut und Brautkleid bleibt Brautkleid. Good luck trying to speak it very fast without misspelling.
Omg Opa Andre! I don‘t know such technicalities…. I‘m rather flattered that you think I would!
And I will thump you for landing that particular tongue twister on me!!! It‘s become a matter of honour now!!! 😂❤❤❤😂
@@LaureninGermany Don't worry Lauren, the waterfall question was just out of curiosity - sometimes in one language we have different words specifying something to more detail or purpose, while in another language there is only just one, same word for both. Like for water fall = basically built by nature while Wehr = man made.
Also don't worry regarding the tongue twister - that one is even hard speak fast by Germans. So no need to thump me. 😱
Now you prompted my memory - it´s a weir or a retaining dam (ok, I looked the last one up!)
No, I´m going to thump you!
Wie immer eine wunderbare Beschreibung. 🙂
Wäre die Übersetzung von Kloster nicht cloister und Abtei abey? 😁
Danke!
Ich muss zugeben, ich kenne den Unterschied nicht. Ich schaue nach!
Hi.
I think you saw a real old village, cause Rothenburg has been bomded and rebuilt....
About Blautopf:
Interesting to "google" Jochen Hasenmayer, cave system, diving, wheelchair, submarine,.....
😋👋
So it says: "Nicht die 4 Buchstaben zeigen / Don't show the 4 letters" (Popo) That's beyond "English for Runnaways"
😉🤣
Hmmm…. I don‘t quite understand where the popo comes into it…?
I haven't checked whether Blaubeuren's tourist office has any notable amount of infos or of marketing material on their web presence (if they have any at all). But whatever they have, they should just throw it away and should not waste more money on it. Instead, they should link to your video and pay for THIS, because they can never find anything better than your videographic work of art to represent their town.
What a darling comment, thank you ❤️
So true!
Guten Morgen, Ihr Lieben!

Hmm, if i can claim copyright for cuddle-cosy-comfy?
Of course you'd get lifelong usage rights.
Ha ha!
Seriously, I didn‘t credit you, I remembered too late! Now everyone thinks I am the genius!
@@LaureninGermanyI don't think i could claim anything for germanizing the english language. Just stuck some words together ...
@@peter_meyerbut what words! Onomatopoeic, yet sweet- genius!
@@LaureninGermany Thank you. I still wouldn't want to be credited for it. It's just natural language evolution. In a way like we germans use the term "handy" for mobile phones.
Handy is a good one, actually. I wonder who came up with it. Mobile phone sounds so clunky in comparison.
I am sure there is nobody that present the beauty of Germany with more love, positivity and positive vibes than you.
If you ever end your musical career, whether I hope for you will never be, think about becoming a professional presenter for Germany tourism.
