Re: Junk drawer
Just in case you maybe forgot, take care of batteries in a different way, they might/will leak after a while. This weekend it was brought to my attention that everybody needs a junk drawer . I didn't even know what that is, so I had to look it up! As I do not have one yet, I started one. This is how...

Re: Bored in Bremen
If you can, just get into a car (bus, train, you choose) and drive somewhere you have never been to. You will see a new world.
I am hoping to get to Stavanger soon.

Re: Travel Insurance?
I know it is not the same thing, but don't forget about Reisekrankenversicherung/Auslandskrankenversicherung.
It is cheap, under 30.00 EUR per year for our family. A piece of mind.

Taxing inheritance - Writing a Will
Hello all, I am supposed to do a penicillin allergy test on Monday (staying in a hospital for 3 nights) and just remembered that it can take me away and that I don't have a will. You never know. I have a few properties in the US and they would go to my wife and daughters. We are all German residents...

Re: autopayment of bank credit card
If you want a card that you pay off with your pace, there is Advanzia (from Luxembourg).
Just didn't like not to have some kind of control. But now, some 12 years later it is more about it being for free.

Re: bikes on ÖPNV in Berlin
Since you are thinking of riding it a just one way, try going earlier in the morning by U-bahn. Before rush hour and return by bike. Easier to get a spot, and you will not stink in the office if you don't have a shower at work. Of course, if you are showering after the ride or before the next day tr...

Re: Anyone have an opinion on R+V Versicherung?
I have a Girokonto at Volksbank, so I could get a discount on insurance through R+V Versicherung. Does anyone have experience with them? You haven't specified what insurance you're looking for, so that is a tough question to answer. Consider "liability insurance" (Haftpflichtversicherung)...

Re: dual US and German SIMS
It looks like that it is 13GB per month now. I kept my T-Mobile number and have a German Telekom prepaid card that works in the EU and 🇨🇭(a must since I live on the border). I’m quite happy with it. Rather than paying 10€ a month I just pay 99€ in advance once a year. I text using WhatsApp. The Tele...

Sometimes a single punch can be enough. Head hitting a curb or something like that.
