OK, my son is planning to move to Hamburg in February for a new apprenticeship. He has found some short term Wgs that are really attractive. So he can look around and find something when he knows the place a bit better. But, ha. Most are too attractive and sound really dodgy to me Too cheap, too lovely. Does anyone have any advice for him? Thanks.

I remember two folks on the old TT residing in Hamburg, John G. and Tor.

While John G. is handling his health issues, as far as I am aware, one could try to get ahold of Tor.

Does anybody of the old crew have a way to contact him?

I am just thinking loud, to be honest...

Yay, thinking, typing out loud is my thing.

He sings tenor, and has been in the chorus at the Wagner Festival in Bayreuth and survived the cull a couple of years back, so checking the chorus list, I think he is [redacted by EditorL].

I did have his address and everything, having sent him some pink elastic for his face masks during covid, but of course all that useful information was lost on old TT.

I think Metall might know him?

Honestly, I thought he was on here.

Oh, turns out he's on FB. First hit using his name. And linkedin, if that's better.

I wonder if he knows we are here?

Yeah, I guess if snowing contacts him she could suggest Toyporn to him. I think he'd like the logo a lot

We at hTTi have invested a lot of brainpower on this... The logo emphasizes that the site belongs to us, and not to a sleezy guy with the intention of making a profit, no matter how... That's why the "own" is higlighted... So please, no blasphemy here on this...

So, is anyone trying to get the former TT member TOR on board?

I took the liberty to redact his real name from this thread.

Mentioning real names of former TT members is not OK in my book.

Fair enough, apologies for that. Thank you for making it right.

Hi,

the housing market in HH is really tough. There is no trick other than to use common sense. If if sounds to good to be true..

Show up to every viewing with a Schufa and a work or University contract.

There are a couple of WG and Wohnung pages on FB that people seem to like.

Thanks Tor. The problem being he is still working here and has only a week before new placement. And he is young and inexperienced (this is a diplomatic way of describing him). Deciding on probably Air BNB for minimum a month as it is at least flexible. Have decided on ones where you just get a room and share with a family or similar. Has all the Schufa and stuff. It is tough and expensive so really has to be there and look at places. He does have one or two friends which should help but they really have no space. And I thought Munich was bad.Will be a learning experience for him, at least. Will let you know how it goes!
