I just landed. Waiting for my vehicle. Staying approximately
48 hours here. Let’s see what expects us
here. I came late to Düsseldorf. But I will take a walk maybe one hour,
half an hour without any plan. Japanese ramen, Korean barbecue, Indian cuisine… You can basically find
everything here. People smoke a lot here. Not only
cigarettes… There’s a very distinct smell of the
other thing also. I don’t like that but yeah,
what can you do? The weather is quite ideal. I like
that. As soon as I reached my hotel, it started pouring
a lot but now it’s okay. [Düsseldorf Cenral Station] It’s Tuesday today so I don’t expect
the streets to be so crowded. [St. Maria Church] This district is called Little Tokyo here. I’ve seen Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese restaurants of course. Bro… I was almost stepping on him. Oh my god.
I didn’t notice… Okay, I’m going back. Otherwise, I’ll just
get high by walking on the streets. It was a nice evening walk. I don’t remember my door. Oh, is it this one? Yeah! It seems like there’s a
gym in this hotel. Let’s check it out. Having
low expectations. Well, there was a few kettlebells and
then two, three treadmills. We don’t have too much option
here. And there were some people so I couldn’t
film it. Maybe I can do it later on but yeah, nothing
to see to be honest. [Justice Ministry of the State of
North Rhine–Westphalia
(and Statue of Kaiser Wilhelm I)] I had some protein rich breakfast
and a very, very strong black tea, like palate-breaking black tea. I don’t know what was wrong
with that but maybe I didn’t put enough water
in it. It feels good still because it’s been a very long
time since I had such a tea. [A mini museum in a subway station
(ArcheoPoint Wehrhahn-Linie)] [Snake skin design] [Wilhelm-Marx-House (1924)] [St. Andreas Church] [Neander Church] [Düsseldorf City Hall] [Statue of Jan Wellem (Johann Wilhelm II)] [Rhine River] [Kö-Bogen] [Prostitution is a torture for women.] [Prostitution is incompatible with human dignity.] [Clients are rapists.] [Women are not commodities.] [Prostitution is slavery.] There’s live hypnosis in the street. Interesting stuff. Last year, Germany legalized
using cannabis. It would be nice to know
if that increased the amount of people using this. since it’s more accessible now. I was told that Wednesdays are the days when people go out and drink, especially young people. I guess I kind of observed it now. I can also see people having beers while they’re walking in the streets. It’s kind of interesting
why it’s Wednesday. “Tengri tag” probably means “the
mountain of the god”. Cool name, huh? As you noticed, a lot of luxury
shopping opportunities. The locals told me that
Arabs come here You know, people from Dubai for luxury shopping because there is more availability compared to bigger cities like
Paris or Milano. Good morning from Düsseldorf. This is the last day, and I have a kind of short program today. I’m leaving in the evening. Let’s see what we can have
in the last day. Yesterday, I joined the guided tour, which was good because I didn’t
have too much time here, and I’m transferring what
I learned from that, but the most relevant ones and
not so boring ones, of course. I was also trying to search
for a gym here. I mean, there were a few, but I unfortunately didn’t have time, and I think since three years, this was the longest period of time that I had to skip the gym. It feels a bit weird. I feel like something is missing. I guess it was kind of needed. I feel it in my joints for
a couple of years. Let’s see how I feel. I hope my joints will take a deep breath and I’ll start over. Most of the time, I didn’t see a
really big traffic here. I think in the morning and then
after the work hours, it is possible. The population is 630,000. It’s not a very big population,
not a million yet. All the things are almost happening
in the center, workplaces, restaurants, and all
the other activity areas are located in the central area. This area with low buildings or more like individual buildings, It gives more like a Scandinavian vibe. I actually liked it. But of course, it’s hard to see
these kind of things in the central areas. I guess it’s too expensive to do that. Right now, I’m a little bit outside
of the city center, so we started to see those things. They go really fast in the cycling ways. You really need to be careful because you can get hit by
a bicycle easily. And that wouldn’t be so nice, especially seeing the speed sometimes. I mean, cyclists are also pretty,
how to say, excited. When you’re passing cycling way, they’re like bing, bing, bing, bing,
alerting, which is good. Otherwise, they’re acting like as
if they don’t have brakes. So you better empty the way quickly. And of course, it goes without saying, but you should never occupy or
walk on the cycling way and always make sure that you’re
walking on the sidewalks. For people who are interested
in studying here or basically living, I heard that finding accommodation
is a challenge. And if you can find it, it’s going
to start from 600 euros and that’s not including internet,
electricity. I think they call it cold,
probably heating too. So it can easily be 800 euros per month. So it is slightly high compared to
especially like five years back. Obviously, everything is getting pricey. That could be useful information. I’m finalizing my trip in Dusseldorf on
the way to the next destination. See you next time. Take care.
