Relocation

So, as we had earlier danced around the idea of having a forum where we can discuss about our new lives in the towns we have relocated into. I tried to open a forum but wordpress needs me to upgrade to a premium site to allow forums. Since that’s impossible, guess this should suffice.

I would recommend for guys to share their experiences in their new towns, their first impressions, what they like or not so far. What’s so different from home? How do you see yourselves living here for the rest of your lives, etc etc.  You can also tell us alittle(or alot) about your town, send pics also of interesting or strange things you come by as you go on with your daily lives. What German musicians do you like, if you are into music like myself(see my top fave german songs on the comment section), tv shows or programs, football, have you caught up with the football craze?If so which teams do you support? Or gaming? (Is it me or there’s an obsession with gaming on this end?) Christmas markets are soon opening. They officially open here in Duisburg on the 23rd of November.ooh i can’t wait for Glühwein mit einem schuss Amaretto. (Do you like your Glühwein mit oder ohne schuss?If so,which one?) Please attend and share your perfect shots:)

Let’s feel free to discuss anything and everything under the sun (dark winter clouds).

Also, we can use this site (forum) to share advises, tips, encouragements, ideas on what to do to get by, just to uplift each other to get better and to easily get by in the foreign land we’ve chosen to live in.

ps, don’t mind the pics, just put them up to spice up the post 😉

 

Also. talking of tips, found this Kenyan youtube vlogger who does videos in German, full of life and very interesting. She’s just starting out with a couple of videos already on, i believe she will be doing more, in German, as we go on.  You can pick a thing or two from her 🙂 Check her page out!

  2. Hello, now its been 2 1/2 months since i arrived in Germany. Time is running so fast. After reaching here at first paperwork, registering at the KVR and applying for the Aufenthaltstitel then comes the Intregration course. Which takes 7 months (6 months language and 1 month Politics n History)
    so at first you do Placement test to determine the level you’ll start from. After my placement test am happy they said i can start from Module 4 which means i will study for 4 months only. Anyway, now i am in the first month of my Integration course.
    So far i love german food so much, Bratwurst, Weißwurst, Currywurst, and now Christmas time Ofcourse some Glühwein and can’t wait to have Baked goose mit Kartoffeln for 25.12
    Another challenge i have now is getting a job.. any tips advice please..because most jobs need fluency in German which i don’t have so far..and my language course is halfday( Vormittag).

Am one month here and still on the process of getting the Aufenthaltstitel, I have also done the test in the language school, am to start on the 20th of this month on Modul 5. Am waiting for their call to say the government will sponsor part of the fees. Otherwise i like the culture here..no congestion on the streets ,quietness, cleanliness ,people ready to assist..its great. Language is a huge challenge though..zinanipitanga tu zote..woi.
