The United States of America is the greatest country on earth, the land of the free, home of the brave! The only place where you can get a massive discount on a mattress on a random Monday in February. But if that’s all true, if the United States really is so star-spangled awesome sauce, then why are so many Americans leaving the U.S. for places like where I live in Berlin? While talking to three American transplants, I found out their reasons for moving to Berlin. And they range from the cost of a burst of appendix to meeting the right woman at a party. -- CHAPTERS 00:00 - Intro 00:54 - Leaving America 04:08 - American Dream 06:22 - Choosing Berlin 08:59 - Becoming the Immigrant 10:55 - Sibling Defensiveness 14:07 - Should More Americans Move to Berlin? 09:46 - Why this shocks me SOURCES: withoutapath.substack.com -- Trail running tours and planning: https://burningriverrunningcompany.com/ Sign up to my newsletter so you never miss a video: https://withoutapath.substack.com/ Get 25% off your first three months with Vert.Run using code Joe25 at: https://vert.run/joe-baur/ Tailwind Nutrition: https://alnk.to/7McmXyf FOLLOW ME HERE: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/baurjoe Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/baurjoe Strava: https://www.strava.com/athletes/3879178 Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/joebaur/membership Substack: https://withoutapath.substack.com/ #movingabroad #americanabroad #berlin #lifeineurope
