Hallo Leute! Ich heiße Andrew und ich komme aus England. I'll spare you the A1 level Deutsch.
I apologise if this isn't the right place to talk about this but I thought whoever is here are the people I want to be talking to — I'm a graphic designer/web developer and I'm wanting to take the plunge and move to Berlin later this year.
I guess I'm just looking for general advice and to get a feeling of what to be aware of when I'm doing so, are some places better to live than others now? What's the feeling for tech/design jobs currently?
It would be great to have discussions with people currently living in Berlin and hopefully make some new friends — I'm looking to visit next month for a week so will be looking to visit design studios and make general connections too.
Vielen dank,
andrew
This is good to know, I don't really have a problem with any of that — I just know that in London for instance there are places you really wouldn't want to be on an evening.
Berlin has some spots like that, parts of Neukölln, Kreuzberg and Wedding come to mind. Many people like to think Berlin has no violent crime, but that is not true.
