On the Miles car sharing App, vans are available too. Kleinanzeigen.de is really helpful for all sorts….services, second hand items etc.

My daughter‘s flat will come up to let early next year. Prenzlauer Allee, Prenzlauer Berg. Her tenancy agreement was minimum 2 months, extendable. I met the landlady and she’s very nice. PM me if you’d like more details. I visited recently and it’s a lovely area. As for getting about, trains/trams a...

I’m so sorry for your loss sannerl.

It would still be subject to Progressionsvorbehalt in Germany, but if you have no German income, there would be no tax due. Thank you Andy P. Just another question if I may…..for round numbers, I earn 9000€ from UK rental and just over the personal 1000€ tax free DE savings interest. Is the interes...

I’d really appreciate advice in this. I’ve never paid tax on my UK rental income as it’s below the UK tax free allowance. Since 2021, my UK rental income is taxed in Germany under Progressionsvorbehalt. I believe this is based on my husband’s tax class. I’ve no other income. When separated and then ...

Can anyone else relate to this…..? THE TIREDNESS THAT ONLY BEGINNERS KNOW: THE "REAL" ABOUT THE LIFE OF AN IMMIGRANT Living in another country takes a strength that no one sees. It's not glamour, it's not a permanent adventure, and it's not that ongoing joy that social media sells. It's a ...

I’ve only ever found teacup size normal hornet nests in our garage. First ‘Mama‘ hornet was huge and used to scare the bejesus out of me until we made friends. She’d come in the back door every day, buzz around a bit and I let her out a window.

Whilst I’m away from home, I went with kiddo to sort some domestics in her friend’s flat whilst he’s away. I was curious in a super minimalist flat, if there’s a meaning to one simple photo he has framed. Yes, I’m being very nerdy in an attempt to think of anything other than the ‘elephant in the ro...

Unhappy because I just realised that today is a public holiday in Bremen but not in Berlin. My official place of work is Berlin even though I work from home in Bremen except for 8 days per year. What that means is I completely failed to prepare for Halloween tonight. I didn't go out and buy sweetie...

Made me smile….

All my problems are solved….Elon Musk with blue thingy badge has sent me a friend a request….he's sure to be my knight on shining armour

Haha, I saw franklan’s post before yours and thought thank goodness we don’t have a gas oven

I just saw some happy posts and despite some unpleasantness for me at the moment, there’s hopefully, always something to be happy about….I rescued this 50 year old monstera from my neighbour. New house owner threw it into his renovation trash pile so I ‘plant napped‘ it a few weeks ago during a very...

It’s very different to the UK supermarkets where the cashiers helped pack and didn’t start with the next customer until all sorted. It can be awful for elderly customers to be so rushed. @kiplette, that’s annoying about the wine. I thought prices shown are valid even if they got it wrong. I’d have l...

Goodness, after seeing mention of checkouts…..just had a flashback to old TT. Did Poppit/Poppet (RIP) post a little funny checkout story that got the most likes ever? Perhaps someone can remember how it went before I bodge it completely 😊 I remember it like this: He had loaded all the goods on the ...

The supermarket has to proof that you wanted to steal anything. And exactly that will be a loooooooooooooooooooooooong discussion, that nobody wants ... Why would one start that discussion, when it is obvious how not to start it? Proof is difficult. I think there’s even some kind of zero tolerance....

I‘m just revisiting the matter of my inheritance after my mother‘s death last October. I‘ve confused and forgotten some issues in the overall state of things over the last year. In December 2024, I submitted a permitted free text letter to the Finanzamt re my inheritance. Reliable Makler detailed ho...

I can't find any information online about attaching a Wise or Revolut account to a NSANDI account - my suspicion is that you can't, but if someone with better google-fu can find that out, it would be helpful and not only for mini-emkay :D @emkay - can your kid open an HSBC account like you did? Tha...

Kiddo and I get excited every month. Happy with an occasional £25 so far 😊. Still trying to work out how she can get her outstanding wins without a Uk bank account….. Have you looked into a Wise account (used to be transfer wise) or Revolut, for some of them you do not need to be a UK resident but ...
