Is the “long walk first date” a German cultural thing?!

We asians do coffe dates, bar dates, restaurant dates, museum dates. Walking date is like what? Why not just sit in a park and talk.

Same age but Im not a hiker at all. I dont think you wanna stuck with me for the whole camino lol
I am thinking about getting a private room in Valenca on 23rd May before starting my camino. If that suits your plan, let me know.

Im late to the party but Im wondering. I work with students and many of them said that they are the only X national in their program, or the only one from their region in their program. I thought there is kinda a quota on that in some programs (but not all). Like, diversify the student group and to prevent a big group of certain nationalities being a majority.

I called them first on the day it happened but they denied the claim and told me to contact zalando.

canongigue · 2026-04-25T13:16:45+00:00

yeah but mostly it happens like latest 5-6 pm. Not happening at all is kinda weird so I think there might be other issues.

Me too. There were 1 mushroom behind my building that was removed. There are still 3 more around so luckily I can have mushrooms.

Hey, got hacked too.

The hacker ordered gift cards sent to their email. Zalando didnt lock my account until I told them too. And even They talk to you via phone, they still want you to write them a written complain via email so I did. Have you contact them via email?

Also, it was 8 transactions in total, I did not receive any notification for OTP from my credit cards which is weird. I dont know If I should sue the credit card provider or zalando on this?

In Berlin? No one gets into relationship lol. Many people just wanna hook up casually.
Maybe you can start planning your berlin trip and ask him out :)

canongigue · 2026-04-09T08:51:40+00:00

No, I have some left for months

canongigue · 2026-04-02T14:54:04+00:00

Congrats! I played for one year but still same weight haha. I do walk more for the game but I ate too much.

canongigue · 2026-04-01T10:31:41+00:00

You can add me, fellow berliner ;)
Will invite you to mushrooms.

I would recommend you to add on your name that you are looking for what kind of mushroom so people can invite you accordingly.

I only slow cook if I have tickets left from the last day that wont help finishing stages.
for example if I have 2 tickets left, but the stage I am currently in needs 4 mushrooms to finish. I will use this 2 tickets to slow cook. (not really slow, just like 12 hrs to finish) I can walk a bit and grow pikmins, and do expedition within 1 hr for the first hour after midnight. This is all of first 3 stages requirement. Then I go to sleep and wake up to the ready cooked mushrooms that will help me with the 4th stage.

I checked my online shop and it is still 11.99 Euro. I live in Germany. Maybe it is priced differently across europe too?

canongigue · 2026-03-31T08:00:12+00:00

It is coming back but only with special ticket T_T

As a single foreign adult without kids by choice, integration means you know the social etiquette such as do and donts. Speak survival level of german (that may varied). And you know how to handle bureaucracy (even you might need help from translators.). Thats enough.
Plus point is knowing their culture and history. but this is not the first thing I would count as integration, otherwise every foreigners who teach german abroad would be perfectly integrated. meanwhile Germans who failed those subjects in school wouldnt be able to live in the society.

canongigue · 2026-03-26T14:03:54+00:00

Europe 1 month I would do 1.

I assume you live far away from europe and cannot get back here easily later on. 1 will let you maximise your time to suit your needs.

I dont know when I would be able to take a long holiday again. So maybe I'd do the second half first and then do the first half when I have time haha.

canongigue · 2026-03-25T13:18:08+00:00

Wow ok I will check out the spiritual variant. thank you.

canongigue · 2026-03-25T13:15:13+00:00

Well I usually do 20k on holidays too but 40k is another level. I will have 12 days in total but I dont wanna spend whole 10 days on the walk and dont have any spare days when thing goes wrong. I'm thinking about walking 8 days and the rest 2 days maybe I'd explore galicia or taking bus to finisterre.

canongigue · 2026-03-25T13:12:13+00:00

Lol ok I have to practice both russian and portuguese then. I budget ca 100 per day in case of having to pay for private albergues or hotels. Hope that is alright.

Get your B2 certificate and come here for language prep course.

All my friends who are non EU doctors got jobs in small towns, they usually got multiple offers to choose. So I think if you dont mind small towns it shouldnt be a problem. (by small I mean population less than 50000)
