Since we moved to Germany, we have filled up our gas tank FOUR TIMES less than we did in the USA! What?! Unheard of in the USA, where most people fill up their tanks 1-2 times a week. This is sustainable; this is what we need for the future.

//ABOUT US//
We are a family of six, with four kids and a cat 😹, who moved from the USA to Germany in February of 2021 to pursue our dreams of adventure, travel, learning another language, and integrating into German life. We hope you enjoy our videos about our journey to integrate – the highs and the lows of being foreigners on the adventure of a lifetime.

We don’t use our car very much there’s plenty of weeks where it’ll sit for multiple days and never  get driven think we’re averaging somewhat less than once a month to fill up the gas tank which Â
Is you know for an american and we had two cars and we were filling at least one of them up every  week yeah and the other one every couple weeks so yeah so definitely we’re walking more we’re biking Â
More the kids are taking public transportation to go to school you know the next town over  definitely we’re encouraged more to be active and be out there biking and walking and using public  transportation instead of relying on the car so much and what i love is having exercise as a part Â
Of everyday life that i don’t have to schedule extra time at the gym or go to a gym i want my  daily life to include exercise it’s so much more sustainable it’s so much easier to do and it’s Â
Enjoyable for the most part we take the bicycle or walk into town to do the things we need to do

Sara,which type of car will you get for yourself once the hassle with the drivers licence is done?a nice two-seater convertible for zipping up and down the winding mountain roads?
Thank you,
Bei den Kinderfahrrädern müssen Sitze und Lenker höher gestellt werden !! Man fährt immer mit gestreckten Beinen Fahrrad !!!! So wie hier ist das Radfahren viel zu schwer .
Your children's bikes are not in the correct height. Very unhealthy for them!
This is of course very un-German
We also call our mechanics car doctors
Most Germans have a very emotional relationship with their vehicles and it doesn't matter what brand or how old the car is, we also give our cars names.
Have a great day
That's one of the reasons we sold our car in 2018. We've been living since then without a car. Given our children are older than yours, but it has been a great decision for us.
Lucky I'm spending a lot of money on gas
