It wasn't the first time in the US for me, but the first time that I would actually LIVE there for about 5 months. I was really nervous but I ended up having the most amazing time during that exchange semester which is why I kept coming back to the US over and over again until I won the Green Card Lottery and was able to stay for as long as I wanted. For my 5 year anniversary of me living in the US, I decided to do a little recap and talk about 13 American things (since I arrived on August 13th 2016) that I can't live without anymore (https://youtu.be/hWutoT5ENaA) and in this video, about 13 things that even after 5 years I just can't get used to!

My name is Felicia (Feli), I'm 27, and I'm a German living in the USA! I was born and raised in Munich, Germany but have been living in Cincinnati, Ohio off and on since 2016. I first came here for an exchange semester during my undergrad at LMU Munich, then I returned for an internship, and then I got my master's degree in Cincinnati. I was lucky enough to win the Green Card lottery and have been a permanent resident since 2019! In my videos, I talk about cultural differences between America and Germany, things I like and dislike about living here, and other experiences that I have made during my time in the States.
