Great story. I’m glad it turned out well for you.

During summer of 2019, I was debating between Munich or Berlin - for visiting; end up going to the former. Really loved it so much that I was contemplating to move there. In retrospective, I was thinking - even though everyone was stranger to me, but I didn’t get any such vibes from them. Super friendly people, food was great as well. Did some shopping and found it to be not expensive at all.

Have u been to Sweden? For some reason, there are a lot of German expats there. Not sure if it’s better job prospects or something else.




We actually just got back from a vacation in Sweden. We found everyone there super nice. But we weren’t there long enough to really check out the job prospects. Honestly as much as I love Berlin if I were to do it again I’d probably target Amsterdam. They’re very friendly to expats especially Americans it seems (at least from my experience) and the city is awesome and you really could get by never learning the language as so much English is spoken there. And it seems the tech scene is really good too.

Years before our move to Hamburg we visited Munich and had the same experience. It was such a nice city. For our income at the time we thought it was expensive but still I remember thinking that if we ever moved abroad Munich would be a dope place to settle.
