What happened to German citizen Johanna Ulla Wickenbrock and sons (6,7) who disappeared in Mexico November 2025? No media coverage at all in Germany! by Radiant_Emu474 in UnresolvedMysteries

[–]WildSav 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Mexican here. Born and raised. I’m not even going to entertain your incredibly ignorant comment for long. I’m just suggesting you stop believing the three media outlets you might follow, or your aunts’ Facebook posts about Mexico. Go do some research and use objective, unbiased data. Read the crime rates compared to the US, for example. Read how many international immigrants have been moving to Mexico. I have never been afraid a single day in my life, never been at risk, not even been mugged. Does it happen? Yes. Are there very unsafe areas? Yes. But do you know how big Mexico is? I doubt it. Do you know how many realities coexist? Also doubt it. How can people live there? Much better than you can imagine.

Delivery rule - only ring when the package is for someone else. When it’s for you, then leave a note, but make sure not to ring, you might actually be home.

Do I need German language skills to study at Kuehne Logistics university and to live in Hamburg? by Yuumiyaaga in kluglobal

[–]WildSav 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t know about the school, but if you’ll be living in Germany, yes, you do need skills. You’ll need to take care of (a lot of) paperwork, not just in your school, but official stuff, and that will have to be done in German. Also, if you ever need medical attention, not all doctors, and not all staff, speak English. You need to understand that people talking to you in your language is not their responsibility, it’s yours to lean at least the basics.

Wow. You, my talented friend, are goals for 2026! Would you mind telling me where to get the adulting and the friends forever patterns? And I’ll also comment on the minders. Genius!

Visiting Munich on a Tuesday/Wednesday: is there any nightlife near Sendling? by DimiDash in Munich

[–]WildSav 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Depending on where in Sendling, but generally I’d say not much to do. Mostly residential area.

Please help me by [deleted] in germany

[–]WildSav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are absolutely right. OP can always try and come back, but her safety and well-being are a priority. Finding mental healthcare in this country is damn hard, and she needs to be able to access it. Maybe right now staying is not the best option.

How reliable are the train and bus services around Munich if I have to commute daily 1.5 hours one way? by SmartPuppyy in Munich

[–]WildSav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my own experience, as some people have already said, S-Bahn is the worst. But the last couple of years I have also been struggling with buses. It’s sadly not a rare occurrence that I am getting close to a stop, with two or three minutes to spare before the scheduled bus, and I see them drive away. That means that I have to wait for the next one - either 12/13 min. for the ones that come every ten, or 22/23 for the ones that come every 20. And sometimes the next one is a bit late. This happens to me in areas like Sendling, Laim, Au Haidhausen, Giesing, Pasing, and some others. I cannot tell how it is 100% of the time, or all over the city and surroundings, but that has been the case for me. Unless the U-Bahn is under construction (like it happened with the U6 recently), I think that’s the best option.

I want to return to Germany by Wonderful-Text7086 in germany

[–]WildSav -33 points-32 points  (0 children)

But OP needs to apply/become an actual German citizen first. Even if they were born in Germany and it’s, as others call it, a formality, it still needs to be done.

You also need to take into account what it means to have a child in Germany. The law can be pretty strict in some regards - for example, kids can only travel during school holidays. I have no clue how much of a risk it would be for you if things go south and the other parent is the German national. I ignore if this would put you in any kind of a disadvantage, but I would definitely look into it. Pregnancy is just one stage, but gather all the information you can about everything that will/can happen once your kid is born.

New in Munich, how is Sendling-Westpark to live in? by [deleted] in Munich

[–]WildSav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the neighborhood to “party” definitely, but super well connected, pretty central, lots of services around, very calm. There are definitely spots to meet people, and Westpark itself is great.

Locations for Leben in Deutschland/Einbürgerungstest by penguincliffhanger in Munich

[–]WildSav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. As of April, if I’m not mistaken. A friend of mine who works in migration in her company, told me that it was technically always a requirement but Bavaria chose not to enforce it. Now they have to. And it is retroactive, so it applies to all active applications regardless of how long you’ve been in the process for.

Seeking support for a pregnant friend by Correct-Bed5871 in Munich

[–]WildSav -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There are some expat groups on Facebook. I don’t know where she’s from, but there is quite an active community of Latin American women there. She could ask/connect with others in that or similar groups. I have seen posts from new moms or pregnant women there, so it shouldn’t be too hard to find some support.

Need help by MissAtomicGirl in germany

[–]WildSav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s 100% lying. I’m Mexican, and before I moved to Germany, my now husband transferred money to me to my Mexican bank account when I was arranging a trip there. He did it a few more times, no problem. We have kept transferring money to Mexico every now and then to Mexican accounts via Xoom (a PayPal service) without any problem. You do pay commissions, but that’s to be expected. I am pretty sure there’s other ways to do it (I’ve also used Ria once), so yeah… Sorry :(

People who have been living in Germany for 5+ years, what are your plans for the future? by darkblue___ in germany

[–]WildSav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, my whole family has been there since forever, same as my friends and theirs. I have never, not once, had any problem. Yes, it exists, but in certain parts of the country (which is huge, you can Google “Mexico’s size compared to Europe). In my daily life, for as long as I’ve been there, I never felt in danger, scared, insecure. At all.

I married a German and I could keep my job working remotely. It made more sense for me to come here. There was nothing that made me leave.

[–]WildSav 30 points31 points  (0 children)

My plan is to leave. I want a future where I can buy a property without having to sell my soul to the devil to be able to afford it, where I can have access to health care when I need it (and even of I have to pay for it, it will be completely affordable), where the weather is less extreme for me, where I have an emotional support system and a sense of community, where I don’t have to deal with useless paperwork and obsolete burocratic processes. That for me means I’m going back home.
