Kirsten & Joerg: 2 Germans in Britain

About

We're two Germans living in the UK, sharing our love for British cottages, countryside charm and timeless interiors. On this channel, we take you on deeply atmospheric tours through some of the most beautiful holiday cottages and historic homes across England, Scotland and Wales - always with an eye for colour, texture and detail. We speak English (with a British accent!) and share not only the interiors but also the paint colours, wallpapers and fabrics used - so you can recreate the look. Beyond that we show you our own Victorian home renovations, bake German and British cakes, explore the prettiest villages and occasionally film with British designers and business owners in their own inspiring homes. Whether you're here for escapism, interiors or countryside inspiration - you're very welcome. 🎥 New video every week. 📍 Filming across the UK – from Cornish cottages to Scottish hideaways. 💌 Business & collaborations: [email protected]

Video Description

In this video, I visit Oli's Schnitzstube, a traditional workshop in the Black Forest where cuckoo clocks are still made by hand. This is German craftsmanship at its best! Afterwards, I travel with my father and our family dog Lotta - visiting the world's largest cuckoo clocks, staying overnight in a cosy inn, and exploring the quiet beauty of the region. A journey into craftsmanship, nostalgia and the magic of Germany's Black Forest. _____ OLI'S SCHNITZSTUBE: https://www.olisschnitzstube.de GASTHOF ZUM OCHSEN: https://ochsen-voehrenbach.de TRIBERG: https://www.triberg.de/index.php?id=551 EBLE UHRENPARK: https://www.uhren-park.de _____ CONTENTS OF THIS VIDEO: 00:00 Intro: The Cuckoo Clock and the Black Forest 00:27 Meeting Oli at his workshop 02:35 Inside the world of hand-carved cuckoo clocks 17:57 Exploring Triberg & Schonach 21:30 Black Forest Gateau & Quiet moments 23:18 Arriving at our cosy Black Forest inn & a walk in Vöhrenbach 26:46 Morning by the Linachtalsperre 28:49 The Triberg Waterfalls & farewell _____ MUSIC: The music in our videos is from Musicbed, Epidemic Sound & Artlist, royalty free music sharing sites which you have to pay a monthly fee to be able to access: https://www.musicbed.com, https://www.epidemicsound.com/ & https://artlist.io/ _____ CONNECT WITH US: INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/kirstenandjoerg/ PINTEREST: https://uk.pinterest.com/kirsten_wick/ FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/kirstenandjoerg TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@kirstenandjoerg #blackforest #cuckooclock #germany #traditionalcrafts #schwarzwald
