      hey ,if anyone else wants to learn about learn German at home try Corbandy Learn German Crusher (just google it ) ? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my work buddy got excellent success with it.

      Thank you for this link, Sarah! Marina and I have such similar stories. Love your videos! You inspire me to travel more. My husband also loves your videos. We watch them together and you inspired us to move abroad from the US for 6 months once we feel we have enough savings :). I like how you said in one of your videos you’d live in Berlin for a year and then who knows where you’d be. I’m not down to 2 suitcases yet, but much better than before your channel 🙂

    1. E Irving Diaz

      Her accent sounds foreign. She does not even sound British, Canadian, Australian or American; it’s weird. Its like Eastern European accent. But it’s cool, everyone is different you know 😀

    I can relate. I am at TU Dresden and it’s been the saddest moment of my life ever living here. I count days every night and it’s taking forever. Germany is just harsh, you need a heart made of steel to live here…

    linguamarina I have a real big respect for your work and the help you have given to others with your videos. But being really honest, I am super dissapointed on your vision of these coutries. The argument was just so materialistic. Just because you can do more shopping in the US than in Germany? After having lived there months that’s the one reason you mentioned over and over. The different mentality is tremendous among those two countries but you didn’t really explained the point. At the end of the video when you mentioned your background as a soviet nation, then it made more sense to me why you apretiate Starbucks so much. Just bear in mind Things give us a pleasure that evaporates rapidly. There is a lot more to the US than shopping, same way there is much more in Germany than what you mentioned. I am just disspointed that giving how clever and insightful you usually are, you gave such a simplistic view on super important topic.

    1. Honey Crunch

      i felt the same. it was like she wanted to explain something about the different mentality, but then took a step back, because maybe she didn’t want to be offensive. thats a pity, because i would have liked to hear her honest opinion about Germany.

    2. crappiefisher13

      @Asha’s Edits you are delusional af.. no one in western europe is jealous of the USA.. most european countries are safer than the US. most european countries have a better life work balance, most european countries take better care of their people, most european countries offer better health care, most european countries protect their workers better, most european support mothers and fathers better when it come to things like maternal or paternal leave.. i could go on and on

    Now I know why we pay so much on taxes in Germany, because the whole world and their grandmothers are cheating our “free” education system, only to benefit and then jump away to the next country to spend their money they earn with OUR “free” education. There is no such thing like a “free” education. Someone has to pay for it, in your case the German tax payer.

    1. ryan andersen

      Wow. Now you can relate to why Americans resist Al the “free stuff” pandering from out left-wing politicians. That is why USA has no free education or healthcare. In the US there are factions of society that have an entire culture built upon fraudulent access to state funded welfare programs The working class knows that those people will abuse the system as they always do as well as the government incompetence in it’s execution.

    1. Naf FS

      Bella x, and yet it seems that everyone seems to hate the Americans for some odd reason. Go figure. America also gives the most amount of money in aid to the rest of the world. Yet everyone freely want to bash America. It puzzles me.

    1. X Du

      @linguamarina True, when I studied in the US, I have full scholarship which covers my tuition and living expense with no problem. My parents do not need to send me a cent for my study in the US

    2. James Strawn

      In most small towns in the US you can live on a couple of minimum wage jobs -especially if you are used to being frugal. If you are young, look into the smaller or state universities and programs for exchange. There are many. Don’t give up.

    3. ranjana dubey

      linguamarina ,even I am dreaming of studying abroad for MBA,but as I don’t sound good financially I pull myself back from dreaming of studying abroad ,can u help me anyhow or other,like yes u knw u hv uploaded so many videos and that hv motivated me a lot,but there are also few things I need to know,is there anyway to get in touch with you directly???I really need help.Hoping for the response.

  5. Virginia Arapi

    I’m in similar situation ,I want to study in USA but the problem is the money, so I decided Germany but I don’t know how it goes.I absolutely think that Germans universities are way better than the Greeks .?

    1. Sedna063

      @InFectionSkillz Medicine is just such a highly competitive field. And it would not be tolerable for German people to give foreigners who leave a free medical education when we have a shortage of medics.

  6. John Hopkins

    Regarding your accent, I am a native Californian and I find your accent to be very good and clear. It is clearly foreign and not native although that is not a bad thing as it makes you stand out from the crowd and interesting. To me your accent sounds Russian but you are completely intelligible. It does seem at times that you have a little bit of a British or even American accent but overwhelmingly your accent has a Russian quality. If I were you I would absolutely NOT try to lose anymore of your accent. Keep it; it will be appreciated.

  7. Michelle Leung

    Could you explain exactly why you didnt like germany? Im from the silicon valley also and just am curious because Ive always been interested in moving to germany. I dont think you would offend anyone for being specific because everyone has their own opinions, so could you go into more detail? By the way your accent is really good!

    1. Valerron White

      she looks like a turk, and germans don’t like turks. I saw that, they prefer not to speak to them. Also they aware of that childish behavior that she has. It’s like being silly.

    2. Johnny morris

      She’s just an idiot, she likes shopping, she got a free education in Germany and probably free accommodation etc and free healthcare while she was there and she didn’t even say thank you , she’s just a spoilt brat –Germany is like every country when you first move , I have lived in America and Germany they are similar , people are the same everywhere .

    3. MAKO

      So, I don’t think what she said is true. Of course it’s gonna be harder at first to make friends, but as soon as you first broke that barrier, which is actually not to hard, making lost of friends is easy. As soon as you have one, others will follow. We’re not like these small groups of people sorted by race (which can often be seen in American colleges) but we form one unity in our friendgroup. My best friend is American and she moved here like 2 years ago and at first we were a bit weary, but like 2 months in and she was already our friend. Now, two years later, nobody really even sees her as foreign anymore. We have ugly and beautiful cities and although some people tend to disagree, I’d advise you to stay away from Berlin unless you’re a fan of crowded places and dirty streets. If you want to study here, LMU munich is great. The university offers courses in English and German, the campus looks great and the city is neat as well. Everyone has different experiences here but it also heavily depends on your willingness to make friends and your expectations.

    Me watching the video sitting in my German apartment on a Saturday evening without any friends and about to clean my apartment 😀 Cant wait to go back to California in January for college. I honestly can understand why you chose USA over Germany. I am German myself, and I agree, girls can be sometimes a bit strange here, it is not common to be super hyper about expressing yourself freely. Sometimes I get judged for smiling and being happy in public. People are sometimes so stuck up. What I love about the US is that people are usually very self-reflective about their country and personality. I love these cute little spiritual book shops in California. Also, my college is very open-minded regarding mental health problems like anxiety or depression. In Germany it seems like everyone is hiding behind their problems. You go girl <3 I see you definitely more thriving in the US. Love from Germany.

      I am Brazilian and I lived near by Köln.
      Köln and Maastricht are two of my favorite cities in Europe. But as far as talked to people, Köln is quite different from the rest of Germany(to be fair the entire NRW).

  9. Michael K.

    But shops are “only” closed on sundays in Germany. But I wouldn’t mind either if they’d be open here on sundays, too.
    And eastern Germany, were Dresden is located, was an Soviet Union aligned country. Maybe a west German city might have fitted you better. You can still feel quiet some differences in mentality of Easterners and Westerners :-).
