Many people who get together with a German find German culture is more foreign and trickier to handle than they at first thought. We'd love to hear about how readers in relationships with Germans have learned to manage the cultural divide.
Obviously, the cultural differences which crop up will vary depending on whether you, the non-German partner, are from Belgium or Brazil, Holland or Haiti, Shanghai or Sweden, but we want to collect as many experiences of relationships with Germans, and as much advice for other foreigners, as possible.
If you’re in a relationship with a German and would like to share your insights for a future feature for The Local, please fill out the survey below!
Big changes are afoot for travel in Europe with the EU introducing two new systems for travellers - EES and ETIAS. We want to hear from readers about their questions and any worries about the new systems.
After repeated delays, the enhanced checks for travellers – including facial scans and fingerprints – are set to be introduced later in 2024.
The introduction of the Entry & Exit System is due to be followed by the ETIAS system, which introduces an online visa waiver for tourists visiting the EU.
At this stage there is still plenty that we don’t know, but we’d like our readers to share their questions and any worries that they have so that we can try to find out the information that is relevant to you.
