For the last few months I have been living and studying in Berlin, Germany. And I have to say, it’s been quite the adjustment. I’ve had to navigate life in a completely different language, and learn different cultural norms. But I can safely say that I have had the time of my life so far. I’ve met so many new people: international students like myself, tourists, expats and locals alike. Through Meetup, a social media app used to meet new people with similar interests, I’ve found groups of people with the same hobbies and interests I enjoyed back home: for example, running, touch rugby, etc.
