# YeeHawUniverse – achtermeier.com

> A German-language community and resource hub run by Tina and André Achtermeier, who relocated from the Ruhr region of Germany to Austin, Texas. The site helps German-speaking audiences learn about living, working, and building a business in the USA — with a focus on the E-2 investor visa.

## About

Tina and André Achtermeier left Germany several years ago to pursue their American dream in Austin, Texas. What started as a small YouTube project has grown into a community for German speakers interested in emigrating to, and building a life or business in, the United States.

The site is written primarily in German and targets an audience from German-speaking countries (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) who are considering or actively pursuing relocation to the USA.
