Interesting Comments on Utah Stories Videos



A recent comment on our Munich travel journal video:

Ich habe sieben jahre in Muenchen gewohnt. Keine Stadt in Amerika ist so schoen wie Muenchen. Mein deutsch ist schlimm geworden, but life in Germany is much better than life in America. The German people were so nice and smart. "Ich liebe Deutschland."

I think they are both saying critical things about my videos. I find it great, however, that these Utah Stories have a least began to get some interest within the YouTube commmunity.

The Munich video has only recently recieved a lot of visitors since becoming a part of Deutsche YouTube. Many comments seem to think that I'm criticizing their lifestyle, when the exact opposite is true. My intended audience is Westerners who don't even have a clue what a non-sprawling city looks like. The Munich story was featured on Planetizen, the Taco cart story was feature on KJAZZ Cafe.
